Family & Relationships Breakups suck

[M Malice]

My marriage(34 years long) breakup was at my instigation, I'm in a good place now but my x is still really struggling. We have 2 children and 3 grandchildren so still see each other occasionally.

I'm finding it emotionally distressing to see her still so downbeat after nearly a year, I feel very guilty/sorry for her which really comes to the surface after seeing her in person.

Geez I hope there is a myriad of similarly judgemental posts in the tinder threads where dudes post their sexual exploits

Cant say I read those threads much, but I don't see what Cager posted that should illicit such a response

Gees. Not even allowed to have a laugh at my own expense without someone getting upset.

Or maybe you're a disgusting sexist pig who has a problem with women enjoying sex. I mean using the word whore is really derogatory and yes I find your post offensive. I hate the word whore.

I come on big footy to have a laugh. I don't need to be judged by some person who knows nothing about me. Especially when I struggle so much everyday with the will to live.

So maybe think about what you post.

I think you’ve made a mountain out of a molehill mate, the “not even allowed to have a laugh” line is amusing because I was just doing the same.

Or maybe there’s some truth to the post and that’s why you’re so upset?

People get called attention whores all the time on here (mostly men) but this wouldn’t fit your argument.

I hate the word moist.

Wait I just read it and I think that wasn't smart to say. Let me rephrase that.




Moist.

My 13yr relationship just ended. She has met someone else and thinks that she is love with him. It's a killer to hear those words coming from her mouth as I am still in love with her and believed that she was in love with me up until this all came out. It's really painful and I am feeling very despondent. I am not eating or sleeping well and more concerningly I am struggling to concentrate on work. I know that time heals all wounds but christ this is tough. I wish I could just switch off for three months and let this thing run it's course.

Relationships aren’t meant to go beyond the 4-6 year experiation date, I’d say 4

 

[Catfish Alley]

That sounds tiring!

 

[craigos]

I must be a psycho because give me a week and I've pretty much forgotten the person I was with, even if it was for over a year, I just move on.
"You never forget your first love" is the most depressing thing I've ever heard, if I'm reminiscing about some girl from 60 years ago it better be memories of finger banging Doreen out the back of the local refuse site and not some romantic Hollywood love story kind of nostalgia.

 

[Catfish Alley]

That sounds much more depressing. Haha. But as you alluded, people are different.

I've come to believe the more experience you have in dating & relationships and the more confident, content & in tune within yourself, the less you hang on to relationships of the past
There is something kind of sadly pathetic and insecure pining for a lost love of a year before, or ten years before, or 20 years before

 

[Jcpdragonx]

consider yourself lucky to have experienced it at all

i am too hideous for a girl to ever love me

i'd end it all right now if it weren't for these prozacs

Not everyone can be a model, but anyone can be attractive

Really sorry to hear that. That must absolutely hurt like hell. Do you have any leave/holiday time at your workplace? It might be worth taking a couple of weeks off to mourn/get away for a bit.

Or you could just be an awesome campaigner like me, to begin with.

May or may not be psychopathic.

Prefer to eat human liver and fava beans with Shiraz rather than Chianti, but that's neither here nor there.

And sorry to hear that seysearles.

Sorry to hear. Take care of yourself.

Keep hustlin cuz. Stay healthy, keep moving forward, and time will work its black gypsy magic and make everything nought but an uncomfortable memory.
