brock9911 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 the thoughts been lingering about how its going to be a lonely holiday season. my family isnt exactly the biggest and not much of my family even gets along so our holidays are extremely small. iv gotten so used to spending my holidays with my ex, its gonna be very weird and awkward being alone. and the little vacations or getaways that come along with the holidays suck also. the whole concept of buying gifts for someone...everyone tells me look at the bright side, you'll save money...no i wont, cuz i will spend it on myself instead. i like buying, i spoiled the sh*t out of my ex. im rambling...just stating its gonna be a lonely holiday...and im sure many people here feel the same
Dark_of_the_Moon Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 You are not alone Brock, I think that is why I am not so positive this week...everyone is getting into that holiday mode and I would prefer to just skip over it all. Wish I had some brilliant idea to give you....if I come up with one I will share it. *hugs*to you.
Author brock9911 Posted November 17, 2009 Author Posted November 17, 2009 ha, well thank you. hugs back. there is no explaining or fixing or stopping the holiday. just gotta suck it up and tough it out. one thing i do have to be thankful for is all of my close friends are single. so i wont have that shoved in my face...its very odd, it seems like a lot of my friends in this past year have broken up with their ex.3 of my really good friends have lost relationships...on of 6 years, one of 3 and the other of 1 1/2, so its nice to have their comfort and support
Dark_of_the_Moon Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Excellent....you must find the positive thing and you and your friends can be there for each other! That is hard for you all, but you can share your strength with each other and maybe find some real fun despite everything. Here is wishing!!! Be strong my friend.
always_searching Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I know I'm feeling depressed as @$&% lately--damn being single. I wish they had a volunteer service that you could rent a date from the beginnging of October to February 14th. I don't want to invest the time necessary for a relationship, but Fall is the best time of year, and then you have Christmas and Valentines shortly thereafter...the two most "partner" oriented holidays. :( *sigh*
stace79 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Right there with ya... Add to that that my ex and I are big college football fans, and there's lots of big games at the end of the season, plus a bowl game and hopefully a national champ. game! But it is going to crush me to not get to watch any of those with him. That was always our thing -- probably the one thing we LOVED doing together. I can't imagine not watching the game with him. And my birthday is a couple days before Christmas, and no one else really goes out of their way to celebrate b/c they're busy with their own families -- he was the one person who always made a big deal out of my birthday. Ugh, yes, this is very depressing.
