Lonely

Does anyone else feel really lonely right now? I didn’t have a big circle of friends before falling pregnant but I think the fact that I’m only 21 and could meet people at uni or on nights out or through friends used to put me at ease. I loved and still love being social and I love to be out of the house. I’ve since taken a step back from uni, got married and fell pregnant. Even being out of my family home and away from my brothers makes me feel quite sad. I have 1 friend to meet for lunch with once in a while and the only person I feel comfortable calling when I feel lonely and upset is my mum 🤣. My husband has the freedom to go out as he pleases, to work do’s, stay late round our friends houses (I usually call it a night and head home early) and go out for drinks. My only hobby is cleaning the house and getting ready for the baby to come. I barely have a social life outside of my husband. I’ve had to hang back tonight and dog-sit whilst he drinks with friends, I didn’t feel very welcome because I get tired early and want to go home by around 11pm/12 and it frustrates him. I live vicariously through him atm and I rarely say he can’t because I wouldn’t want him to feel like this either. I do resent him for the freedom he’s still got and wonder if I’ll shake the feeling after baby is here :(

Yes lonely asf even tho my man right here

Going thru the same thing rn My husband works from 11 am till 9 pm and it feels like the loneliest thing in the world with 3 kids. I moved about an hour to 2 away from any of the friends I do have so going out isn’t even an option. Especially because I can’t seem to find other friends where I live. I only talk to my mom every single day and go to her house for adult interaction, but now my youngest sister started kindergarten so now she’s off to work and I miss my only adult interaction now And my husbands off 2 days a week and goes fishing for about 70% of that day and stays with me and the kids for the last 1 day a week. I hate that my husband gets to do something he loves every single week and I just sit here in my house bubble

Literally going thru the same at 22 :/ It really is hard seeing everyone our age live their best life while ours is kinda on hold and changing to include someone else now.

I felt that way while prego and still now 5 mons pp
