Then when she develops more serious health or mental problems, and you have nobody to help look after your children, relationship therapy has burned through a couple therapists, and you're telling each other how lonely you each are but avoid real conversations because they inevitably lead to more loneliness, then you will again have a new perspective. Good luck.

- dang 7y agoI may be wrong, but it sounds like an allusion to some other story, which is probably quite painful.
- dang 7y agoPlease don't do this here. You're welcome to share your own experience, if that's what you're alluding to here, but not to rhetorically put it onto someone else.
- RankingMember 7y agoDamn, isn't there enough negativity in the world? You gotta bring that in here?
- bdamm 7y agoWell, this entire thread is about loneliness. If we want to understand it and help it then we probably should be talking about it.

- scarface74 7y agoI guess I am going to be the only person to defend this statement. I see where you are coming from and I’m willing to give you the benefit of a doubt that you meant the “hypothetical you”. But to use the old cliché- it’s better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.
- asveikau 7y agoHaving the childcare load shift due to a partner's health issue is something that will happen. I have been there and it isn't easy. But personally I was happy to step up and am proud of how I acted in that moment. Sorry to hear about what sounds like your more negative experience.
