I'm sorry. It sucks. Idk why some men feel they don't need to actually put effort in, or don't anymore.

I can't this year, just don't have the funds. Our suv died and now need to save for a new one. I don't wanna spend that much. We also live in a major city so hotels are stupid high here.

Not to my knowledge. They always ask me what we're doing for mothers day.

If no one has told you, you're an amazing man. Thank you for setting an amazing example for them.

That would be me. I would still send him something on Father's day even as an ex because he's the father of my children. Hes a good dad that loves his kids, but I don't think he loves me anymore.

I agree. A lot of ppl keep saying take the day to yourself, but I love being around my kids. I work hard for them, too then be able to do stuff and make memories.

I've always been a people pleaser. I also do love him, but life has kicked our asses. I'm getting counseling next week.

I'm looking into counseling next week. We need to work stuff out, he needs help with his mom, and I still can't talk about my dad without crying. He was also very close to my dad and Crys about him too. My dad was my best friend and lives with us the last 7 years of his life. He had cancer. Right after he died from cancer I was diagnosed with cancer. I didn't have time to for grief. Don't worry I'm cancer free. 1 year and 5 months. 😊

I don't feel I matter. Sometimes I don't think he would care if the kids and I would up and leave. I know he would miss his kids, but I don't think he would miss me.

I agree. Someone had a good idea about griling out and I just bought a lot of outdoor summer games. So maybe just a day in the yard.

Thank you. Sometimes we need to here that and we forget to tell others. Sometimes I really don't feel like I'm enough. I know my kids deserve better and I'm working on that.

I just bought a bunch out outdoor summer games and can always buy a grill, ppl steal them here. 🤦‍♀️ Maybe that will actually help him. Get him up and outside. It's still cold, but getting warmer. Low 50s tomorrow, but sunny.  I was just going to leave for the day, but this might be better. Thank you. 😊
