I’m so sorry, My mum is still alive but almost 85. I lost my husband in 2019 to cancer. I was Ok at the beginning but now I am starting to feel lonely. Do you have a husband?

Im sorry you lost your husband.
Yea i have a husband. My husband lost both his parents to cancer. Ive been a mess for weeks but i found goin back to work and doin things seems to help. Always seems to be worse in the evening times.
Have you been doing things to keep busy? Is there certain things or times that make you feel lonely?

I also feel bad in the evening when I am tired. I have been spending too much time on Twitter but it can be quite toxic at times. I even developed a crush for someone on there, he doesn’t know. I’m starting to question my own judgement. I don’t have a paid job as I am caring for my elderly mum. She fell on her face on Monday and I spent the day in A and E. My daughter has gone ice skating and I’m just feeling a bit sorry for myself.

Evenings are the worst , days you can go out work shop etc distract yourself but at nights the minutes see, to slow down

Yes, I find I can distract myself quite well but when those distractions disappear I have a very sad and hollow feeling.
Yea i find i spend to much time on Facebook sometimes, which i keep tellin myself to stop doing as it can be toxic and sometimes something little on there can set me off.
Why are you questioning your own judgment?
I know how you feel, some days or evenings i start to feel sorry for myself or sometimes i start to mope about wondering why i should do things (this can be silly things like cleaning the house or seein ppl)
I haven’t meet anyone from here, i havent been on her long and only join in on some conversation at the moment
This is my first day on here. You ask why I question my judgement. As I say I have developed a crush on someone who is much younger and much more academically qualified than I am.
I can’t see it going anywhere because there is no way I would tell him.
Would you not tell him because hes much younger or dont want to go to dating again?x
This forum has helped me alot, hopefully this has started to help you today.
I wouldn’t say no to dating again, I just feel too vulnerable to make my feelings known. I don’t think I could take a rejection.
