I am used to lonely nights. I was always alone. I miss laughing. I do have joy in my life don't get me wrong. But there is always that heaviness that sits on my shoulders.
It is amazing how many times you can wipe a kitchen counter that isn't dirty!
Books!! Reading is the greatest escape, you can time travel, be in a different city/state/country...be someone else... I LOVE reading all kinds of books, so many great stories out there. The time passes so fast (as much as I love it, it's my biggest time waster), so if you want to get through some lonely hours until you fall into blissful sleep, I highly recommend getting some fun books. If you tell us the kinds of things you are interested in reading, I am sure a few of us could recommend some nice ones. Think I'm going to go grab one now...
I have managed to read every book my Nicholas Sparks THe Twlight Series and The Sookie Series since I booted my ex out. I love to read as well
That and going back to work...the only down fall of being single again lol
