On my lonesome...again! Other half has gone for a day sailing, I had to decline as I'd never be able to manage it and get up for work tomorrow. Really fed up now, going to eat lots if bourbon biscuits while I sulk in a very childish manner!

Emoty nest syndrome can be as bad as the fibro some days! My kids have left home and my partner and I don't live together (only known him for nearly a year). He's really good at fines doing things together and it's good for him to have a play day with his mates every now and again.

I'm still at his now - was supposed to go home this morning but having a really bad day and can't face the drive. So I've been sat here drinking endless cups of tea and scoffing biscuits lol.

At least football is seasonal...computers are constant! I'd be having a few 'power cuts' if I were you.

Thanks for your message, it's comforting to know there's others out there that understand x

Sundays are horrible, I know I'm meant to be resting so I'm ok for work on monday but I just get fed up when I'm on my own. Which isn't very often but that somehow makes it worse because I'm not used to it!

Not so bad in the summer as the heat from the sun does wonders for me. But today the weather is miserable...cold and rainy... Winter is coming and I'm so not ready for it.

Seems it be a lot of abandoned other halves on here...maybe we should set up a widows club?

nah even t.v is boring at times i dunno why we pay for a licence with the rubbish thats put on.

my fella isnt into t.v.but yeah lonely at times .but thats his time and i cope.

i cant even drive so wish i could id never be in on my good days and he would be waiting around for me..

do you have to go home cant you stay another nite?

i had a whirlwind romance and things happened and my fella asked me if he could move in with me.

ive only been with mine for a year and half now.but you no what i wouldnt change him for love or money.hes wonderful to me and very caring and understanding.

i dont like being lonely now kids arent here and i see them every so often..

lifes too short so id rather be a c widow than a football or golfpher widow...xx

Yes, I will stop over and go home tomorrow. I've just changed my car to an automatic as I couldn't manage changing gear (accident to left leg last year) so this makes life easier but I don't dare drive on a bad day. Sounds like you have a wonderful man - mine is too and I'd move in with him at the drop of a hat if I could! But he's not one to rush into anything and he's been very badly hurt in the past, so I'll have to be patient. To be honest it would solve a lot of problems, at the moment I go to his on a Friday and home on the Monday and I don't think he realises how exhausting it is trying to live in between two homes! He has a dog, I have a small studio flat, so it's always me going to his place, but it makes being home alone so much harder.

Totally agree about the tv, I spent more time searching for something to watch than actually watching lol

bourbon bisquits are brilliant trouble is once you start eating them you cannot stop!

Hope you felt better by the time he got home xgins

I think a widows club is a fantastic idea. I'm 55 and my husband passed 6 and a half years ago. My daughter has her own family and I feel very much alone sometimes. Other times I feel great but choose not to go out as I find it's no fun going places on your own. I have a few good friends but they have husbands and don't have the freedom (!) I have. I find Sundays worse than ever - my boredom Sundays I call them. Also, having a disability means I can't do the things my friends do so I feel a little left out too. I love my TV and my books but there are times I think 'ooh, wouldn't it be lovely to have some excitement in my life!!'
