Lack of emotional suppport vent My_farm: If you have read my recent posts you know that my siblings are
not interested(or just don't get it,even though I am very explicit)
in giving any emotional support. I am a loner that only wanted the company
of my wife and myself. I know that you need friends in this world,but that is the way it was. How do/did you other homebody/loners get through this.
Even though a large population are divorced it is hard to find someone that
is close enough to really get emotional support from. I am not the type of
person to try to make friends just to get through this and be a loner again when I am better. It is difficult enough meeting new people,but with this temporary extra emotional stuff it is near impossible. I must admit that there are several really super Ojar members that have really reached out to me and I could not appericiate it more. I have a old roommate staying with me,but he is not much help in emotional support(I really appericiate his being here,don't get me wrong). I had started(and intend to return when I am a little stronger or get more support) a divorce recovery group.
Because I am all alone I can not afford to emotionally break down at the meetings and go home without support and get enogh sleep for work the next day.My dept manager has let me know that I need to leave my divorce stuff at home.I have lost 1 day of work for the final hearing so I do not know what his problem is.I only told a few people of my divorce because I want to be stronger before everyone finds out. I hope to gain strength or let a little time heal then return to divorce recover group. Most people at the meetings were 8 months or more seperated or divorced vs my 2 months.

I am sure this is full of spelling errors and typos,but it's a vent
