Hi cats36

I’m new here too, so you’re not alone in that aspect.

It sounds like you’re super busy with 3 and with additional needs. I’m sure you’re doing an amazing job, and spinning plates here there everywhere.  I have 2 boys and a single mum , not dating anyone at present but have a had a few dates, but no deep and meaningful connections formed yet.

It’s lovely to hear your in a relationship too, must be a bit tricky integrating those two lives especially as he doesn’t have children, so it’s an entire new world for him to get used to. But I’m sure if the love is strong you can get through mixing more when the time it right.

I hear you when you say you feel lonely even in company of others. I felt very alone in my marriage. I guess reaching out and expressing all your feelings can help in lots of ways.

I’m an introvert too so I do understand you in that aspect, feel free to message me if you feel you just want to get your feelings off your chest. I too am getting used to saying I’m not ok sometimes and that’s ok to not be ok. But there can be this fear of being a burden on people, well that’s how I feel currently.

Have a good evening ☀️

Hi

I have one teenager and my second son is close to that also 🙈. I struggle so much some days as both being boys they are competitive and can be so nasty to each other. Love to chat and give support as well as just being a non judgmental friend. It can be amazing and lovely and heartwarming being a mum of boys and other times hard and upsetting and lonely and just feeling like there is no one to just talk to about what phase or challenge your facing with them. Like struggling with getting homework done or the constant reminding them to respect their possessions without being a nagging mum. Helping them with rage when things aren’t going to plan. All that stuff and more.

Take care

Hi Brucie

I related a lot to your message , my kids are similar age 11 and 14 and they want to play independently most of the time. Which leaves more time to myself and I do miss the mental support of just being able to talk to another parent about your children as there are challenges to deal with often. I also have a dog who helps when the kids stay at their dads as the house feels so quiet with no kids at home.

I’m happy to chat and vent to if you like.

Take care
