How sad am I?

[banjosister]

Just split up with my long term partner of 5 years, he was the man of my dreams for 4 of those years. Now I spend all my time on here as I don't seem to have any friends left!

[Llamatron]

Not as sad as me.

I've yet to meet a woman that I haven't either bored to death or scared off in under a week. So I've never had anything like a long term relationship.

The closest I have to friends are my colleagues at work. I have nothing to do with any of them outside of work.

I am sat here alone typing at my computer on a Friday night when most normal people are out socialising. I'll be switching off soon and switching on the TV. This is my night, this is my every night. The chances of my situation ever changing are extremely remote as I will always be me.

See, I beat you.

That does seem sad. I'm sorry for you. What interests do you have? Maybe you could try joining one or two local groups/societies - in my case it was a choir - and perhaps you'll meet someone with similar interests and find that a beautiful relationship develops.

Hey Llamatron,

Didn't realise it would be a contest! Just seem to have an awful lot of spare time and haven't the foggiest what to do with it all! Anyway what constitutes normal?

I have the tv on too and I'm emailing - multi-tasking again!

Thanx anyway, I feel a bit better now xxx

[banjosister]

Hey Robert G,

Thanx for that. I go to yoga class once a week but everyone disappears as soon as it finishes and I seem to have forgotten the art of conversation. I play the banjo - not terribly well but banjo players are few and far between!

Bit scared of having another relationship, it's much too early yet anyway. I wouldn't want to join a choir my singing voice is just not funny! Thanx for your advice xxx

[Llamatron]

Happy to be of service.

Cheers legend,

That made me smile! xx

Hello - totally empathise, just split up with my bf of 3 years, totally broke his heart but i had to be selfish in the end- i was't happy and hadn't been for months! Its good to be on here, keeps me from being negative... At the mo i am totally happy being single for the first time in ages and have totally fallen for my work collegue... haha. Take care.x

[banjosister]

Hey Legend,

I wish Icould play duelling banjo's as I said I'm still learning and probably will be for the next forty years. Unfortunately it was my partner who was teaching me!!!

Maybe I'm not as sad as I thought!

Thanx xx

[banjosister]

Hey Loststar,

You're right being here takes my mind off him for a while, I hate the fact that I keep thinking about him as I am only thinking of the good things, not the stuff that cheesed me off.

Well it won't kill me I'm sure I will get over it. Hey Ho! xx

[MrBen5]

Hmmm, what area are you in banjosister?

[banjosister]

Hey MrBen,

I'm an Essex girl! xx

[Greeter]

Hey Greeter,

That's part of the problem I don't want someone else I want the man that I met back. He doesn't even have the decency to call me and end it. He's been working silly hours so I sent him a letter to say ring me when you have a day off so we can get together, that was two weeks ago. I keep reminding myself of the crap rather than the lovely stuff. It's such a shame we could have had such a good relationship. Oh well, it won't kill me I'm sure......

Thanx xx

Hi Banjo It's greeter again
I cant say I know how you feel that would be a bad judgement to give only you know how you feel.
Is he really worth your sadness and despair if the 'crap' outweighs the happy times then perhaps this is the answer to your dillema.
Step back take a breath and stride forward again. You sound a lovely lady for a man who will sweep you off your feet with love, trust and devotion. Have faith, keep trying something will happen.
