dicky_fish Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Just got an awful piece of news tonight. My little sister had a miscarrage a few weeks ago. I'm the only member of the family she's told and she's sworn me to secrecy. This is huge stuff. I'm not going in to the details about my sister or the dickhead who would have been the father because as selfish as it sounds this little rant is about me. My ex is the only person I know who could ever understand or empathise with me on this. I can't break no contact, and I won't, but I'm fighting a massive urge. Link to post Share on other sites
Exit Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Sorry to hear that. I can understand your desire for contact, but good to hear that you won't do it. Instead, put your energy into being there for the person who needs your support right now, instead of wishing you could share information with someone who has chosen not to be part of your life. Sometimes the best remedy for being down in the dumps and wishing someone would take care of us, is to take care of someone else. Be there for your sister. Link to post Share on other sites
Philosoraptor Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I understand that it is hard to get over that comfort that you had with someone in the past. But this is just another experience which will help make you an island and able to deal with any emotional problem in the future. Link to post Share on other sites
