I am really proud of you for not driving by your H's. I know it must be very tempting. I am lonely when my kids are at their dad's too. You have to find things to do though, otherwise your mind will wander and next thing you know you will be feeling sad and missing your H. I think you should go somewhere on Thanksgiving to help keep your mind off of things. Can you go to a friend's? I understand not wanting to be around your family b/c they aren't really going to support you on saving your M. My family all say that it is over and I need to accept it and move on. I know I have to move on and detach , but I will not believe it is over. How can anyone know what the future brings? I don't like being around people that discourage my dream of H and I reuniting. Maybe we won't , but without faith nothing is possible!!!
Does your H show any concern for you b/c of the holiday? Did he ask what you were doing? My H hasn't even shown any concern . All that matters to him is that he is spending Thanksgiving with his family ( not mine anymore according to H) and is going to have a nice day! My family is all in FLorida so H's family was always mine too. I have spent the past 10 or 11 years spending the holidays with H's family. Since we split up this has all changed His family feels bad so we try to get together on are own time during the holidays.
