Feeling bummed today

Hi,
I haven't posted too much. For the most part I've been OKAY with all of this because my marriage just wasn't that loving to begin with. I've been trying to focus on my new life and new adventures. Today I just had a bummer day. The reality is, I have herpes from a bit of a wild period in my life (early 20s) and a child with special needs. The chances of another relationship are very high. While I don't need a man 24/7 or anytime soon...it makes me sad to think that the last time I will have sex was before thanksgiving. Will I spend every new years dateless? All of these thoughts are there today and I am sad. Thanks for listening to me.

Kimberly, I am a little bummed today too. I understand about being alone. My ex and I would make love 3-4 times per week up until the day he handed me the paper and some even after. We stopped in November. Now I am very lonely and very scared that no one will ever want me again. I mean if the man who promised till death do us part can't stick with me why would anyone else. I don't know about you, but if I would have known that was the last time, I think I would have made it more memorable. I hope we both have a better tomorrow. Hugs, Brenda

Hugs, Brenda

Exactly...I think my last time was a "quickie" during nap.

I meant to say my chances AREN'T high for another relationship. Oh well...hopefully this too shall pass.

Kim, a very wise lady who used to post on these boards told me once, "Just chalk it up as a bad day!" That's all it is for you. Let yourself feel lousy today, knowing you'll feel better tomorrow.

Also, do you journal? When I am having a really bad day, I just write down every miserable thing I am thinking, and it feels like the poison is just leaving my body and mind. It's very theraputic!

Hang in there. Let us know how you feel tomorrow.

Hey Kimberly...

Unfortunately, we have days like these and those are never easy questions to answer as we never really know until something else happens... but I'm hoping that tomorrow is much more peaceful for you... try to do a little something special for yourself!

*hugs*
