Feeling lonely/depressed since me and my bd split but he still calls time to time to check on me I just wish he would understand me. I find myself crying when we get off the phone it feels more like we’re working on being friends but I want more even though I know our relationship will be toxic he’s not ready for commitment so it will lead to endless arguments of me not trusting him. I just lay in bed most the days when I’m not working and have lil of motivation to do things around the house. I wish I had more friends out here as well it gets really lonely any advice 😞

Hey sis. Sorry to hear this. Pregnancy is one of the biggest things in a woman’s life and you need to feel at peace and loved during that time. Unfortunately not everyone understands that but you need to put yourself and your baby first even if that means distancing yourself a little and setting boundaries for yourself. It won’t be easy because you need support from time to time but definitely finding people in a similar boat to you will help xx

Thank you yes trying to connect with mamas that get it! I’m from the Bronx

If so was closer I’d come kick it!

You have so much insight and honesty with yourself. Be proud of yourself seriously- I can barely be honest with myself sometimes especially during pregnancy it truly is a vulnerable time. You’re letting yourself go through all these emotions and being honest with the fact that your trust has been broken and that it’s healthier for you to stay friends. Even though you’re experiencing the pain now I feel like looking out for your future self is such an admirable trait! Keep working on recognizing awesome traits about yourself that you wanted him to understand/see in you

Awww thanks it just sucks having to be the bigger person in situations sometimes I wish I can play blind but I know I’m only disrespecting myself in the end and hurting my own feelings for a man who only cares about his needs being met.

Take care of yourself and baby first♥️ do you have any other supportive people in your life? Mom, sister, friend, cousin? I’m sorry you are feeling lonely. I know the feeling.

Thanksss @Roxy idk how this app works but I keep connecting with ppl that’s far away from me that actually respond lol I haven’t connected with anyone from the Bronx or in my reach lol

yeah you shouldn’t always have to be the bigger person! It should be more equal in a healthy relationship. I hope you can someday be in situation where you can just trust someone and that trust is earned and respected and you feel safe and loved. I have a few people in my life like that and it makes life feel so easy compared to the drama and heartache of people who can’t care about others. Like you said. You’re creating an opportunity for your future self to be truly appreciated without all this overthinking you have to do when people don’t know how to respect you or communicate
