    I feel !!!!ing awful. No matter how much I con myself into thinking that I'm happy as soon as I'm on my own I realise that I left behind the best part of me 18 months ago.

    Sorry to be so me, me, me but I feel like none of my friends understand exactly where I'm coming from and at least on here I can just write it and it can be ignored.

    I'm sorry for the demon I've become but you should be sorry for the angel you are not.

    Oh TDQ..... :grouphug: Have one of these dodgy hugs since I have no idea what to say :o

    Do you always feel like this or are you just having a moment? I know 18 months is a long time but it's not really long enough to get over someone when you really love them. I'll be honest I've never loved anyone (at least I don't think so) but it took me years to get over my ex and we were only together 2.5 years.
    I'm sorry I don't know what to say but I'm gonna be awake for a while so if ya fancy a natter I'm here. I do talk sh!te tho :D

    Wrong :p

    No unhappy & fabulous person on here gets ignored :naughty:

    Sweetie, sorry to hear you are feeling so down too :grouphug:, must be time of the year or something :confused:.

    I am usually full of festive feistiness & determined to be happy being single but even I choked a bit yesterday while watching 4 differents sets of neighbour couples putting up their lights :rolleyes: Yes, I do know they would have been bickering too but sometimes being single just SUCKS.

    Anyway, I plan to eat, drink & watch tv for most of the time off, so will be spending plenty of time on here too I expect :o.

    Number 1 on my list of things to do in 2010 is " Get a life" :rotfl:

    Just remember that there are many more girls out there for you to meet & in the meantime you have us :grinheart. All of us, you lucky stud :D

    Chin up or will have to send my friend Gordon round to sort you out :eek:

    xx

    Thank you so much Lula, Lincs and Bowski :D

    I'm just really, really good at getting on with my life and dealing with stuff day-by-day, I force any issues from the past into a dark corner and ignore them until I have a bad day or get a bit drunk n lonely and then they all come out in one go. As much as I can try to rationalise my feelings when I'm sober and put her behind me it doesn't work like that when I'm drunk :(
    Unfortunately being 6'2" and over 18stone apparently I'm not allowed to be upset or unhappy in anyway as manly men don't have feelings...

    I'm not making any preparations for xmas as I'm staying down in Cornwall on my own. Really don't want the massive hassle of going home, sleeping on the floor or sofa and having mum shouting and screaming 24/7! Luckily I know a couple of people down here so won't be totally on my own.

    :huh:

    Not sure how you'd expect any men to not take offence at that.

    My experience is that women who say that sort of thing wouldn't give a decent bloke a second glance but would go to the ends of the earth to find a bloke who they already subconsciously know will treat them badly.
  • sorry it was thoughtless. just feeling it all at the minute. heads rather screwed up through the thoughtless actions of the men around me. really didn't set out to cause offence, just being an idiot.I apologise.
