Lonely
I am headed into a divorce. Though it will be a month before we can officially begin proceedings. So, we are still together, trying to be polite with the tension thick in the air. I'm so very lonely right now. Very, very lonely.
I’m so sorry that you’re going through this.

Thank you for your kindness. :)
I'm going through a very similar situation except mine keeps staying at a friend's some nights then coming back randomly to stay here for a while and then repeat. Due to us being married, I can't legally change the locks yet. When he's here, it's so awkward. I feel like I'm trapped in my room because we can almost never have a conversation that doesn't turn into an argument. You're not completely alone though, I'm here for you, and 7 Cups is a great outlet and source for meeting some pretty awesome people. I'm trying to build my social circle again too but it's not easy during COVID. That's part of why I love this app so much 😊 Good luck to you and if you ever want to talk, we're here for you.
@AutumnLauren6 That sounds like an incredibly tense situation. I can only hope that it comes to a resolution for you (and him) soon. People need to be able to have healthy, robust lives at home and not feel we are being held back. Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement. I wholeheartedly agree with you about reaching out and making new connections. All my very best wishes to you.

@KindnessPretiosus That means so much to me right now, thank you!
Anytime!👍
@gentleEast8898 I understand what you are going through and I know it is really, really hard. Everything will be alright
@unicornlatte Sometimes that's all you need to hear. Thank you so much.
I’m so sorry to hear that, that must be so hard 😔 I’m going through a breakup (after 9 years together) and can sympathize with the pain of grieving a relationship. Hang in there, there are better days ahead...Sending positive vibes 💕
@resourcefulOwl7361 That means so much to me, and my heart also goes out to you. It's so hard to grasp when something is over, sometimes. Sending warmth, sunshine and best wishes to you. Thank you so much.
Aww thank you so much!! It’s been difficult but I’m hopeful that this will lead to good things in the end. Sending hugs! Hang in there!
It must be so hard being in the same house. I'm sorry for what you are going through. Many of us going through a divorce feel extremely lonely and isolated. If we were with someone for a long time then it's natural to miss companionship and someone to talk to. As someone previously mentioned, 7 cups is great for this. Use it to your fullest capacity and join other social groups (even on facebook) of things that you like. Feeling that you are part of a community is so important. Best of luck
@purpleWater5328 You have absolutely hit on the truth, I cannot agree enough! Reconnecting and finding the sense of community that I used to have (so much time and energy has been drained on his neuroses) has been the most healing aspect of all this. Thank you deeply for your words, and all the best to you.
