anyone else l-o-n-e-l-y

Sometimes I think if it weren't for our phones my husband and I would go mad not speaking to eachother. I work sometime 16 hours a day and then when I'm home we almost never have sex he never cuddles me faces the opposite direction when he sleeps. I just feel so flippin lonely and I don't really know how to cope with it.

Terribly. I am a 23 yr old sahm living in a new city where I know NO ONE. My husband and I share a car and he works 10-15 hours/day, so I don't have any transportation. We live in an apartment that is like old people central...ha. it is quiet, which was part of the allure...but its too quiet. I love staying home with my little boy, but sometimes I think it would be nice to work just for some sort of social situation. When he is not working he is doing school work...it is like being a single mom without the sole financial responsibility.

Aaw I totally feel you. My man works 8hr shifts for a few weeks and than 12-15 hr shifts for a month and than he'll work 6 10s ... its a reallllly crazy schedule since he works at the oil refinery. When he's home he just wants to fall asleep right after dinner and im a stay at home mom pregnant with #3 so I get lonely just talking to kids for the most part. I tell him how I feel but it just fixes things temporary. I've learned to deal though. Without his job we wouldn't have the things we have.  Hopefully it will get better!

I don't work but I kinda know how u feel. My bf works over night at a hospital so when hes working im asleep. And when he's home i'm awake and he's sleeping. He sleeps alot so I only see him and talk to him like 4 hours max a day. :/ we live 4 hours away from our family so sometimes i'm just at home by myself. Kinda lonely sometimes.
