Dealing with the loneliness

Is anyone else here dealing with not having and close family or friends ? We live with my in-laws so my husband has a built in pack, but I’ve never felt very close to his parents ( they are very kind and easy to get along with though ). Also my husbands family just isn’t very emotional and they don’t show much affection; I feel like I’m not allowed to really seek support in the way I need it. I just want someone to hold me through the emotions and tell me it’s all gonna be okay but I don’t have anyone like that in my life.

Show your support

Why does that sound identical to my life right now. No family or friends here since I moved and I live w in-laws as well. My in laws aren’t emotionally available or affectionate and I always feel like I’m having surface talk w them. It does feel really lonely but thankfully I have my baby! Maybe you live nearby! I live in Orlando

@Desiree I live in Savannah GA , it was lonely with 1 kid but since having our second kid I am even more alone , I feel at the end of my rope constantly and I just want someone to be there with me and to my husband that just means being in the same house or room

Yes, I am very isolated so I understand, it’s so hard

Oh yeah, I know how much that sucks 😭. We were at least in the same state as my family (still a 3-5 hour drive depending on traffic) & didn’t get to see the few friends I did have in the small time between giving birth and them moving. With my second, I found out I was pregnant again right before we moved outta state and of I don’t know anyone here and my husband kinda knows like 2 people here😅. I’ve literally never been more grateful to live in this day and age bc I can call and FaceTime family and friends. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still really lonely but it does help a little

Same here. I migrated to be with my husband and start our own little family so all my friends and family are overseas. Doesn’t help that we have a 12hrs time difference so it’s hard to just call and chat sometimes. I don’t have much friends here and mainly just stays home with my lil one all day, everyday. My husband tries to be supportive but sometimes I just wanna have some girl talk!

I live in Savannah as well. I moved away from home to find peace. I found it, but I miss the small circle I had back home. I met my husband here, and in the two years we've been together, we have a 1 year old and one on the way on top of our children from previous relationships. He works a lot, so he's not really there like he wants to be for support. I have my kids but it gets lonely sometimes without someone on my level.
