Feeling very sorry for us....

Recommended Posts

You are a wonderful mother Mrs B and a wonderful person. As I've said before in a previous post, you must always do what you believe is right no matter how hard it is. You are clearly doing this, so I just wanted to send you some hugs to add to all the others!

 

Stay strong and for the moments when you don't feel strong remember there are lots of people around here to lean on. xxx

Really sorry to hear that it didn't work out for you. You gave him a chance and he blew it, his loss and through no fault of yours.

 

I have no advice to give as I have thankfully never been in the same situation. Do you have a best friend you can chat to, go for coffee with, give you a hug when you need it most? Don't keep your feelings bottled up thinking you have to be strong for the children, my best friend was invaluable when I was severely depressed a couple of years ago.

 

Big hug from me to you. xxxx

The last time I looked you had over 400 hits on your post and at least 10% had replied with really valuable, practical advice.

The other 90% (in my view) are 100% behind you but with nothing to add that can be any practical use apart from the cyberspace support.

Just know we're here for you.

I'm one of the 90% I'm afraid :oops:

I'm 100% behind you but finding it difficult to find words to express what I'm feeling for you

My daughter is in a similar position (3 years on and he's still being a jerk :twisted: ) but through violence not alcohol...

 

from now on, to remind us both that I'm totally with you, I'll pop in daily and post a ((((hug)))) for you

So sorry to hear about your problems. At least you will always know you did everything you possibly could.

 

Do be careful he doesn't move back in on any pretext. One of my friends has an ex she is divorcing who is sitting tight in the house even though he is the one at fault and she earns the money and she can do nothing to get rid of him. Is there anywhere welse he could look after the children so you could change the locks ?

Mrs B, i've only just caught up with this and i'm astounded at how amazing you are being. It sounds to me like you are doing everything right, your children clearly know where the blame lies. How are you getting on with sorting out extra benefits? Maybe a trip to the Citizens Advice bureau would help as they would know all the right contact numbers and what you may be entitled too. Basically, whoever you pay a bill too should be contacted to see if their are any discounts for lone parents and check the DWP website as there is quite clear info on there as to your entitlements.

 

And never forget, rant to us so you can be the strong, clear-headed woman we know you are in front of him.
