Lonely in FL

[femalealphawolf]

I lived 6 years in GA waiting on a relationship. Got fed up and moved to FL to find out work is unavailable for people like me here. I run a home daycare with children that have been neglected and do not play - just wreck my home. It is a trying job.

My family lives in MI where I am originally from and I have been alone with my children for 7 years and all of Megan's 4 yr life. Still waiting on the relationship that just never pans out. I am lonely.

I have my children and they are great...but I miss adult companionship. I miss having a life (for me). I live for my children and that is wonderful but I would like something for me as well. We all know that if we are not happy it is difficult to make others around us happy.

It is a waiting game for school to get out and then I can move. Hopefully happiness is around the corner for me. I never give up or give in no matter how bad things get!!! And I always plug along with hope by my side - even if I am let down.  I do not give up.

What part of Florida are you living in?

 

I Understand how you feel...I moved to FL from NC (where all my family is) almost two years ago...I came down here thinking that his father and I could make a family out of us but it didn't pan out....its been a lonely time ever since......I'm like you, I live for my son too and and so happy and blessed to have him in my life....but adult companionship is sorely missed....

 I actually have decided to move home in the early spring time due to this....how will I ever be the best parent I can be if I'm miserable here???  So, I don't know if moving home is the right choice but at least there I have family and all my childhood friends that I have kept in touch with and desperatley want me to move home too...

 It is a trying process, without a doubt

Good for you for not giving up! You deserve some happiness, something just for you- and I truly hope you find it. Relationships are funny things- sometimes they start out great and turn out badly, sometimes they start out rocky and turn out great, sometimes they start out rocky and stay that way, and sometimes... sometimes they start out great and stay that way, though we all know how often that happens!

I hope you find Mr. Perfect- not perfect in every way because perfection is over-rated. What I mean is I hope you find Mr. Perfect for YOU.

Best wishes,
