The 'They knew what they were getting in to before they signed up' brigade would do well to read this thread from a parents perspective. |

By:
T2F, you started a great thread mate, I hope, and am sure that you will, have a great day.
PDC, I think this is gut-wrenching for us reading it, God only knows what it must be like for you and you're family at the moment. If collective prayers and crossed fingers count for anything, he'll be OK. |

I'm surrounded by family every christmas but still feel lonely :(
Big family gathering yet I only get on well with 1 of my relatives, how depressing. |
|
By:
Too many people around does end up with that feeling.
|
|
By:
I guess it's better than being alone, I should be grateful.
|
|
By:
Not sure about that.
You can have a room full of fools but you are interested in maybe one or 2 of them. Then you think you would being enjoying yourself more by chatting on betfair ;) |

I am spending tomorrow at work for seven hours (from 4am-11am), then I'll be on my own for the rest of the day.
And do you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way! My mum lives 200 miles away and she'll be spending the day with my sister and her fella, both of whom are twunts. I have hardly said a word to either of them (and I missed their wedding in the meantime) since Christmas Day 2004, when he told me to "Fúck off and take your **íng dogs with you." My life is immeasurably better since I stopped pretending I liked them, and I can't think of anything worse than having to spend Christmas Day with them. I know some people feel very lonely at this time of year, and I have sympathy for them, but I enjoy my own company and I am looking forward to tomorrow. |
|
By:
Yea maybe. I just end up thinking "am I really related to all these people?"
They couldn't be more different, I have nothing in common other than the (Northern) Irish alcoholism :^0 |

By:
you can come around my mums tomorrow m&p ;)
I like my own company. Boxing day ritual is that i have to visit my grandparents which isnt all that bad but it ruins a good day. |
|
By:
I'm off work on Boxing Day, so I'll be drinking and going to a local non-league game (if the weather doesn't put paid to it).
A mate invited me round to his house for dinner tomorrow with him and his parents, but he only mentioned it when he was píssed and I'd rather spend the day here with the dogs. I've got ten bottles of wine, enough food to feed an army and a full Sky+ box, so I'll keep myself occupied. As I said, lots of people are lonely at this time of year. My mum was with someone at hospital last week and they overheard a nurse telling a patient that his physio wasn't working and so he needed to have an operation. "Will I be in here over Christmas?" "Oh no. The operation will be in the New Year." "Oh that's a shame. I wouldn't have minded being here for Christmas." |

:) I used to have a distant relative who lived in a home and used to love going into hospital at Xmas, seriously, as long a s it wasn't too serious! |
