Sorry just moaning

<< < (2/3) > >>

Whoo hoo!  A connection with a nice person who also understands your history.

It sounds like this relationship provides not only fellowship, but tremendous validation.

I'm glad to read you've found this person.

Keep saying NO to the negative people.

Keep engaging the positive people.

It'll be OK: )

Lighter I think what I really liked was that, even though we swopped stories on our mums and we've both obviously been through it it didn't turn into an endless slagging off session, it was more just both of us saying it was sad/difficult to understand/we hoped we'd done better with our kids etc - I think like we both didn't have too much anger about it?  She told me that when she was a kid her nan, mum and aunt used to get together every Sunday and sit and complain about their lot - they each had been left by their husbands and would sit talking about how evil men were and complaining and criticising.  Her dad walked out when she was five and for almost fifty years after that her mum never got past it, never forgave him, never let her talk about him, she was still so angry five decades later and still making other people miserable because of it.  We both agreed we didn't want to be like that!  And I think your mantra is perfect - no to the negative, yes to the positive!

I don't think you were moaning. What you said was reasonable and about your feelings. They are valuable.
I wondered what happened that sparked that sense of despair in you.
No use coating pain in sugar.

The birth of a child is a joyous occasions that seems to bring all the bats out of the belfy and the skeletons dancing out of their closets.
