I started it by moving my lass in the house I've bought, we got engaged and then 3 months later we are living our best lives in Greece, December were done and my lads now have had a head feck of a situation wondering why their dad is back to square 1. Please someone or anyone make me feel abit better than I do now because personally I am really struggling to comprehend it all.
You have your boys, your health, good mates both at home and on here. No matter how bad things seem, your boys will always love you
You have been through such highs mate, but it obviously wasnt meant to be. Better to find out now than years down the line. Your boys are the constant though and they need their dad. It's amazing how resilient kids are, trust me I know from my own experience and mistakes. You know what sorts me out when I'm in a bad place? Spending time with my two, my daughter who only sees the good in everyone and everything and my son who is growing up so fast it's scary
Keep your head up mate, your a brilliant dad to two beautiful boys. They will need you as much as you need them. Then there is everyone on here who has your back. Things will get better mate. Just keep talking whenever you need to please
Things can change really quickly. The last year has been a whirlwind for me, most of it very good, after several years of going absolutely nowhere. It sounds like a cliche but you really do have to drive your own positive change when the opportunities come along to do so. Chin up - new year new start and all that.
Heres us 4 hours ago making memories. Deep down my head was in pieces but I always show a brave face to my lads in the hope they grow up mentally strong.
I bet your kids think you're the dogs bollocks mate. I know the feeling when your heads not in the right place and you have to appear strong for your kids but as long as you treat them well as you obviously do it's a bond that can never be broken.
You say you are “ showing” a brave face . We can see there that those boys have happy faces. That’s down to you . Keep going pal - it’ll come good .
Ok, a few beers , early hours and I'm flicking through youtube on tv. Fleetwood Mac came on. Words, and I just thought of you Tees, If you wake up and don't want to smile If it takes just a little while Open your eyes and look at the day You'll see things in a different way Don't stop thinking about tomorrow Don't stop, it'll soon be here It'll be better than before Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone Why not think about times to come? And not about the things that you've done If your life was bad to you Just think what tomorrow will do All WE ( the 606 lot) want is to see you smile If it takes just a little while
i talk silly sometimes but that photo is brilliant i really mean that, merry xmas and to all your family and everyone on 606.
I came out of a 9 year relationship in July, 2 kids. It kills me not being with them every day and I’m still getting used to the change, it really bothers me some days and especially at night time. My sister lost her fella in June to stomach cancer and it’s had a real effect on the family. I can say 2022 has been a rough year overall but I’ve still got some good memories. Watching the lads win at Wembley right alongside my 8 year old son and my dad was a special moment, one I’ll never ever forget.
Sorry to hear that mate, take time out from relationships and have some valuable time with you and your boys. They will help you through this just by being there. I don’t know you personally but you’ll pull through it, my 9 year marriage broke down during covid and my 2 young daughters helped me loads. I’m in a much better place now.
The human spirit is a wonderful thing, you just to accept that the bad times aren't sent to punish us, just how things are. In fact the bad times can make the good times better ... neither last. There's a soppy old song that says it better than I can ...
Sad to hear mate. It's easy to say, but true all the same that however bad it is, it really WILL, get better. You're still young, have two fantastic, happy looking lads, and have the blessing of health. There is always a future mate, and one worth striving for. You'll get there. Just take the little enjoyments at a time, especially the lads. There's always here anarl. Pipe up anytime.
Hope this image helps give someone a laugh I was coming out of the ground yesterday with @Whittylad and going across the huge car park in darkness. I hadn't realised I'd walked into the middle of a big frozen puddle. I slipped but somehow managed to stay upright, grinned smugly to myself then did a full Home Alone
Stay strong for those lads mate. It’s going to be tough for you personally for good while, but slowly the pain will start to ease and there will come a time when you will be able to rebuild. You have your health and my advise would be to hit the gym harder to burn off your anger and not hit the bottle to numb the pain. Believe me it doesn’t work.
