It feels like my kids don’t want me
Idk if this is the right place to post this but I’m feeling so lost. About 2 weeks ago I left my husband. He was very absent in our kids (1F & 3F) lives, did nothing to care for them and paid such little attention to them. The final straw was him admitting that he regrets having them and actually hates them. I knew leaving was the correct choice but now that I’m alone, my girls and I are back at my parents’ house. Don’t get me wrong I’m SO grateful they took us in but now my girls just want my mom. I’m sure it’s just my emotions being all over the place but I’m just extra sad. I left my husband for them and now they don’t even want me. I feel like I left my love for them and it was almost for nothing. I was taking care of them myself anyway but I had him at least. Now I don’t even have that. Idk what I’m even looking for just wanting to vent I guess😔
I’m sorry you’re going through this. It does sound like a really tough time. But it sounds like you did exactly what you needed to do. I’m sure your kids are just thrilled to be there with grandma since that is something out of the ordinary. It’s a good thing that you have your family as a support system. Of course your kids love you very much. But sometimes they have a funny way of showing it. When we are with other family members, sometimes my son wants absolutely nothing to do with me. When your kids get older, they will be able to understand more. Just do the best that you can to take care of yourself and get through this tough time. You will be better off in the long run. 💗
