Family separation

Re: Family separation

Hi @Leeanne1 ,

 

Thinking of you. We are here for you.

Re: Family separation

Hi @Leeanne1 yes it's difficult l feel sorry for my granddaughter because she is going to be bought up being told lies and innuendo by my daughter and ex wife.  It's a pity the people who cause us the pain can't be somehow held responsible for their actions

That's so true I have grandchildren and my husband has told their parents lies so I'm suffering now because I do get to see them. I think it wrong what people do to others especially your family . If you ever need to talk Im here

Thanks for your support @Bon-courage

Re: Family separation

Thanks @Leeanne1 I really appreciate your support. I have no family members to talk to about anything I lost my dad just over 2 years ago and mum hasn't spoken since the funeral and has sold the family home home in Melbourne and moved to Queensland  to live with  my estranged brother.

Hi @john74 @Leeanne1 ,

 

Please know I'm thinking of you. Whilst it may be a very lonely time, I hope connecting on these forums will give you some sort of way to connect with others so you feel a little less lonely.

 

Here for you if you need a chat.

It can be difficult when there is no one to talk too . That way having this safe place to come and connect with others

Feeling feel to message me any time, I have no family that I talk too .I see my mother but I don't tell her anything cause I don't want her to worry. I lost my father 4 years ago and my mother in law 6 years ago. I talk my old sister now and then.

Re: Family separation

Hi @Leeanne1 l appreciate your support.  I am still a mess not just the issues with my kids but l still have feelings for a lady l was in a brief relationship with earlier this year we were living together and she ended it suddenly without reason and moved out. I got a house mate to share the house now she wants to move and l can't afford the rent alone..l have started looking for someone else but l can't handle the constant uncertainty with everything else l am dealing with. Maybe it's just l am a total failure in life.

John74 you didn't fail at all. It can be hard believe. I live in a two bedroom apartment my rent is high but I don't want to share with anyone. I struggle now and then, I worry about having a place at the end of every lease. 

 As for a relationship you will find someone that will want to be with you. You sound like a kind and caring person

@Leeanne1 

Thanks for your reply. My housemate blew up at me before again. I don't need the stress l am receiving counselling from two mental health professionals regularly and will need life long care. I have another potential housemate interested hopefully it happens depending on the agent etc. I don't like being accused of things l haven't done it hurts..l very grateful that are are able to listen to me Thanks.
