too many ups & downs LostTeacher: i am tired of this road right now.
i turned down going out for supper and a movie with my friend and her brother. i was just tired.
i am a little bummed, i am a little blue.
it seems like this happens every time something really good takes place.
yesterday was grad for the kids i teach. we go to the dinner and dance, and then go out together afterwards. i wore a nice dress, had lots of compliments and pictures, and had a great time.
so what happens today?? i send all morning in bed (not because i was hung over, because i was tired), and all afternoon lying around. i couldn't get moving, i couldn't shower, i just didn't want to do anything.
i am trying not to feel so damn sorry for myself. i mean, things are going actually really good for me. i did really good getting my marks in early. i've been super busy. i've been having fun. i am moving into a great place in two week.
but i am lonely. and scared. and lonely.
i am starting to get sick of being alone. friends/family having babies,a lot of bad nights at the bar, no matches at a speed dating evening, and a best friend that is totally infatuated with a boy.....starting to get to me.
i DO NOT want to feel jealous, mad, sad. i want to be happy.
i just don't......just not tonite.
i am just sitting here, drinking a beer, checking online. wishing that i wasn't alone...even though i put myself in this position. i could have gone to dinner and a movie...i could have gone to the bar with some guy friends, but i just needed to feel sorry for myself for an evening.
thanks for listening.

Re: too many ups & downs sosad05: LT...I'm sorry to hear you had a bad night. Sometimes, I guess you just have to go through the feelings so they dont get bottled up inside. When you're divorced, it seems like EVERYBODY around you is married. But, I think its a perception thing too. I remember being married and thinking everyone is divorced.
Well, I hope today goes better for you. Try to focus on things that make you feel good.
((HUGS))

Re: too many ups & downs brokenbaby: It is totally okay to feel sorry for yourself for an evening!
This happens to me too after something goes well or I have a good time. I think it's because I am carving new memories in my life without him and it is not something I ever expected to have to do. So the new memories and the good times right now are really bitter-sweet.
You wont be alone forever LT, you are too great a woman for that!! The problem is the right ones are a little slow to come along.
Hope you are having a better day tomorrow.
Re: too many ups & downs LostTeacher: thanks guys. it's been a bit better today.
i had some friends over for a swim, and my girlfriend asked me to join her family for sunday dinner. it was her sister's bday, and we had a good time.
it's been a quiet evening. i did some laundry, made some food for the week...it was ok.
i know that it will happen when it happens. and you're right, i never thought i would be making memories without him. espeically when all my past memories are with him.
i need to get myself out of this funk, and i think it's starting. i have moving day coming, two new jobs on the horizon, a few concerts....time to just go with the flow for a while.
thanks for listening guys. i know where i have some true friends.
