Sad Event Over The Holidays

[Ric.ror]

Whilst I was busy with Christmas and other family problems
I did not notice any difficulties with my son and his partner of six years
Anyway they split up just before new year. I am really upset. I didn't see it coming - in fact I thought they would have been together for ever - they were so well suited.
I think I'm probably almost as upset as he is.
When I ask him if he thinks she might come back he is quite adamant they won't.

rocky relationships usually hit crisis point at Christmas/New Year.....just be there to help pick up pieces

It happens.....you can never tell where, with whom or when....but it happens.

My son split with his partner of 3 years just after Christmas.

There is a whole life in front of him.

Give him a chance, obviously things weren't working out.

Sadly Christmas is usually the time that such partings happen. All you can do ric is be there for him.

[Sqad]

Hi! murray just made myself a cup of tea........I have to do EVERYTHING ;-)

[Sqad]

Oh! ric...P.S Only give advice if asked and if you do don't expect it to be acted upon.

[waterboatman]

Hi! boaty....fine thanks...absolutely fine. I always read your threads, they are one of the great successes of AB.

[Ric.ror]

She text me and said she was sorry but things just weren't working.
I'm hoping in a few weeks or months she might change her minf

[Sqad]

Got to go...switch on the TV for her and tell her how young she looks in her new silk polka dot pyjamas.........

[murraymints]

[-SharonA-]

Lol sqad !! But seriously sorry to hear your news ric. Give it time and don't keep pressurising.

[waterboatman]

Thank you sqad. :o}

ric you never know, time will give her time to think. Obviously she has her reason(s).

[murraymints]

ask no questions....might be a lot more to this than you even want to know !

[NoMercy]

Ric... inevitably one of them will move on much more quickly.

Did they mutually decide to split?

[ummmm]

Hope your son is ok. Splitting up is always hard.

[1ozzy]

A clean split is the best split.

A new life awaits them both.
