Hi every0ne. Kind of new here. At least new to posting here. I have read so much and learned so much and I’m thinking that maybe this might be my last straw. This could be the last place I might find something that can change my mind. I’m 38, soon to be divorced after 16 years of “marriage” and still lonely after so many years. Guess I’ve never been quite right and the one that I thought could help me become someone only wanted to be a “roommate”. I should have left her years and years ago. But I didn’t. I have wanted to die for as long as I can remember. So this really doesn’t have a lot to do with the pending divorce, but it sure is helping things along. Well just wanted to say Hi. I’ll be hanging out here for a few weeks and seeing if I can relate to anyone else here. Maybe I can even say something to change someone’s life.

I can say this I’ve been divorced twice, each one was difficult.
The pain will leave, your not the first nor the last to go thru this.
Hang in for a while, and welcome to the site.

what keeps you going through the day? It seems like you’ve recognized your marriage as a sham for quite some time now so what kept you going? Workaholic? TV show junky? what? I’d like to get your opinion because I’m having trouble finding things to live for.
@tphg I get through the day because that’s what I have to do. I know that doesn’t help you. I struggle through the day and try to make everyone think I’m alright. I look forward to going to sleep. Some weeks I can sleep easily and early. This past week has been impossible to fall asleep. I never watch TV anymore. I have no interest in it. I have created my own isolation and it sucks. But that is how it is and I’ll deal with it until I finally can end all this crap. Sorry I’m not helping. I do love taking walks at sunset. It calms me a bit. I have a back problem that need surgery to fix. My leg has alot of pain so it makes walking a bit difficult. Its actually kind of nice to feel physical pain to match my emotional pain. So I guess maybe take a walk some night. It might give you something to help pull you through the day.
Oh yeah….I work a ton more than I use to. 40+ at my regular job and several days a week doing side jobs
