Life is hard.

Well... Today was the day my wife and kids moved out, and started their new life in their own place. Tonight will be the first night in a very, very long time that I've gone to werk without hugging my kids goodbye, and telling them I loved them. Tomorrow there won't be anyone to welcome me home from werk. It'll be dead quiet... Like it is now. After over nine years of dating, being engaged, being married, and being a father... I am alone. The only one here to keep me company is a psychotic cat that I didn't want to keep in the first place. I still don't know how things turned out this way... I probably never will understand. Today is definitely not a good day, and tonight will probably be even worse. C'est la vie...

Life is hard..........I wish you the best, I know it sounds bad but you have to make the best out of a bad situation. If you like to fish, go fishing, do what you enjoy. Don't sit in that quiet house get out and live. Best wishes.......

Life is hard, but it's doable. Just make sure that you spend as much free time as possible with the kids. It's not the same as being there, but it ain't all bad. I know I found that I did more 'special' things with my kids after the breakup. Just be careful you don't spoil them too much, you will have a tendancy to do that out of 'guilt'.
Good luck.

Take care Drk. I've been where your going. It was very easy for me to pull the blinds and hide in a bottle for awhile. Get out, be with friends, make new friends, walk the mall and make internal fun of wierd looking people.

Sorry Kenn.
It is the loneliness that gets to one, the separation and the need to be with them.
Echo is right, go out and force yourself to be among people and like Nani said, remember you are still your kids Dad.
It is OK to fall apart but you cannot afford to break because those kids needs you.
My arms enfold you, however far away you are.

Mr. Angel
Please consider you are not alone. Just a cell call or PM away all of us. Thanks for posting and break on through to the other side. I stole that from Jim Morrison. He should have followed his own advice.  Me too
all the best

Made it through werk okay... Called in late because I was up almost all day helping my wife and kids move, and needed to get a couple more hours sleep. Luckily I pretty much outside by myself all night, so I don't have to worry about lookin' like too much of a blubberin' idiot, but it also gives me way too much time to think.
Too quiet here today. Have music playing to help, but then I keep hearing wierd noises, and have to pause the music to make sure the noise isn't coming from inside the house. Blah... Never noticed how damn noisy my neighborhood is. Oh well...

I went through divorce and now my kids are grown and out of the house. I broke up with someone after 8 years last year. I was betrayed. Life is shitty sometime. I spend many many hours alone. It gave me time to see where my part in choosing these partners or my end of screwing up in a relationship came from. Life has to be taken as a learning experience at all times.

It will come, you'll learn to enjoy having some time to yourself. Make the most of it. it would be so easy to do nothing when you don't have the kids with you or to sit and mope but I make sure I arrange things to do during my time alone. Even if it's only having a two hour bath without interruptions! It takes time, don't push yourself and don't let anyone else push you but you will learn to enjoy your own company again. We're always here for you, only a click away and don't you forget that.. EVER!! Okay?

My wife and kids left last August after 35 years (twins were seventeen). I went through my last cycle alone and finding this site probably saved my life. You 'll be okay, you have freinds here.
All the best and pf wishes,
Rich
