Hi everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has managed to make any plans for spending New Years Eve with their AP?

Although my AP/BF's DS's both showed up for the holidays, they apparently have not spent much time at home except for Christmas dinner...lucky me. AP/BF and I have spent time together everyday over the holidays and it was pretty weird. By weird I mean "comfortable". We just hung out like and old married couple, it was the most bizarre feeling!

I think we've decided that we're going to spend New Years Eve with each other...and I really want to do something special for him, as in COOK. The problem is, during my 25 year M, my H did most of the cooking so I'm not very good at it...and AP/BF is quite a good cook. I should just hit him with the proposition ~ I buy, you cook (with my help of course).

Anyway, hope you all ring in the New Year in a happy way.

Hi layla,

I really admire your strength, it's obvious the depth of your feeling for your AP...you are able to enjoy yourself without him though, right?

I am just like you however, there is nothing that I like better than being as comfy as possible...lying in my bed and watching T.V. with AP/BF. Going out for one or two with him, would be a distinct possibility, but for the most part..dinner and drinking at home and in my bed...pure heaven.

I'm having trouble at the moment...just memories flooding back. My DD has her birthday tomorrow. Our lives back then seemed so full of promise. I've been remembering a lot.

You said, "you are able to enjoy yourself without him though, right?"


Yes, I am able to enjoy myself, sorta kinda. Its not like I am miserable when we are apart, I am occupied with family obligations that he does not have now, so I can be busy and enjoying the kids and family stuff going on, esp. this time of year, but I am always counting down the minutes to the next time we may be able to have time together.


I am sorry you are having a hard time. I know how that is, like the ebb and tide, washing in those memories of other, older, better times, and then washing them out again. Its the time of year, a time of reflection. *hugs*

While not "together" in the way we'd like, we will be spending NYE with each other...along with our respective spouses and his children and grandsons. We're attending a party with them. But at least we're able to be with each other. You take what you can get, eh?

Not seeing mine. Sad about it. He is out of town with friends. I have never seen him for NY so I guess I should be used to it but I'm not. I am happy for all of you who get to see yours. Cherish every minute.

No plans with AP. We are both having quiet nights at home with our families tonight. We celebrated our own little
