[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m separated, getting divorced finalized in a month. XDH hasn’t said a word about Mother’s Day, which isn’t a surprise. We have 3 kids but they are too young really to do anything without guidance.

But for whatever reason I’m hurt that none of my friends (all married) reached out to me about any plans.[b] I know that they are celebrating with their own families so it’s probably me being unreasonable. [/b]But I still feel hurt about it. Just venting here, I guess![/quote]

Maybe they're not though! My family of origin didn't do big plans on mother's day - flowers and a gift at breakfast and then went about our normal days. My own family now is similar. Og course I do hope my divorced mom friends get to spend time with their kids on Mother's Day, but it hasn't occurred to me to make sure they have plans because...I don't. I literally have no plans.

I am sorry you're feeling hurt and lonely though. It should be the responsibility of the other parent to teach the kids how to celebrate each other on these days, just to be decent people, but apparently plenty of married men don't do that so that's asking too much. [/quote]
