I had the best Thanksgiving that I have had in years. I was with my whole family that loves me so much. I haven't got to enjoy time with them since before me and the ex have been together. We went to his family because he couldn't deal with the small kids. Then later in the day I would go visit with my family and would not get to see everyone. The part that was sad my brother had his girlfriend with him and everyone else is married. I looked around and the one thing I have always wanted, a life with my best friend enjoy family time. Everyone else has this and I'm still alone. But I do know I am so much better off it just still hurts. I know time will heal. But my family was great, made me laugh and my mom ask me to take her shopping. I did and we haven't been able to go shopping just the two of us because I couldn't be gone to long or I wouldn't get spoke to for three day because the ex would be mad. But the best thing is we were cleaning up and my mom grab my face and said I love you and I looked at her and said I love you too. She know I really love you and I have enjoyed having you back spending time with your family. That really made me feel good and I was right where I belonged.

Hang in there. It will get better. I'm glad you had such a good visit with your family. My ex made it hard for me to spend time with my family, too. I've been to many great family get togethers since my divorce. And as I get older I realize how much I needed that time with my family. Since then I have lost my mother and father. I cherish the times that we spent together after my divorce. Just be grateful for each moment you spend with them because you aren't alone while you are with them. Hang in there.
