[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I don’t not want to be with my DH. It’s just that I love us as a family unit. We genuinely enjoy each other. And filling that time with secondary projects and busy work doesn’t fill that time or desire. Additionally it’s not just the “empty nest” it’s the feeling of having no worth and no meaningful goals as I age. All those things I wanted, I have. It’s behind me now. And realizing if I start something I could Be dead before I finish it. We have pets. And they are important to us. But now I’m thinking “I’ll never be able to have a kitten again, bc it may outlive me.” (Ftr, I enjoy adults animals and even seniors too). It all Just seems so. . . Meaningless. Lonely. [/quote] Thank you for posting. I am fearing this as youngest heads off in August. I am signing up to volunteer here and there to try and find a cause to focus on.[/quote]
