Break up of a relationship/marriage

Aye it's nice being out my parents house and having my own space back. I don't have my son on a mon, Tues or wed night so this is the first. It's really hard staying off the drink the first night but I'm not on it as of yet so hopefully I'll make it through the night !

Is it far from the bar you and your brother have? Have a walk out for a couple. I've just put the kids to bed and she's finishing some work so I'm off for a couple in peace

I found my break up really hard and still do sometimes. Split up in Feb last year and I was at my parents right up until Nov 1st this year when I moved into my flat. Still not totally over the marriage but I've accepted it's over and I'm single. It's nice having your own space and it's even better having my son for 4 nights but at times it can be lonely. Good luck Rocky, I know you have at least 1 son so be there for him / them. Things get better.

It's great you got the majority of the custody. Usually men her a whole weekend per fortnight which sounds shit.

That’s the feeling I have remaining. The sadness fades over time but a strong feeling of failure. I cried myself to sleep most nights last year 😕

This is the only sensible post I’m going to make on the subject unless asked about it...if you’re feeling like that then I’d highly recommend seeing a pyschotherapist, not a councillor, but a proper shrink. They work wonders, will get to the route of why you feel a failure and help you come to terms with it. Once you’ve been you’ll wonder why you never went sooner and you’ll view life in a whole different light

Correct there mind, once you accept it then you just move on

If you can openly talk to others about the role you played in the breakdown and accept any criticism then you are free- sailed too close to the wind mesel this year- changes had to be made or it was permanent doghouse
