[quote=Anonymous]I am a divorced (for a long time) mom of 3 with one still at home. I have been in a great long distance relationship for 5 years. Before that I dated someone local and felt it was too intrusive/time consuming so this LDR has been great. But over the last 6 months or so I have been feeling stifled/annoyed even when my SO is 1000 miles away. Maybe it is because the reality that we could be together more is approaching with our kids almost out of the house, I am not sure. I find myself resenting any demands on my time or attention or expectations of such by my SO. And he doesn't even expect that much. I am not sure if I am even making sense. I just want to do what I want to do when I want to do it and I am feeling this even more as my empty nest stage is approaching. I am very financially independent and approaching 50. But I am starting to feel there is something wrong with me and my rigidity when it comes to my personal autonomy. I think my SO is actually being pretty patient with me. Does anyone understand what I am talking about? [/quote]
