in Chit-Chat
So since this is the chit-chat board I'm hoping someone out here can help me.

A little background:
I am divorced with 3 kids; I began dating a wonderful guy about 3 months ago.

He lives 1.5 hours (each way) away. I go up there there weekend. He has offered to come down here and rent a room (no, lol, just so we have somewhere to hang out) as I am not ready to introduce him to the kids.

Every weekend when I leave there I just feel a sense of "sad" or "down". I'm not sad that I'm leaving him (I don't think). And I really have a terrific time with him. He's amazing. Truly almost perfect.

But I can't understand why I have this sense of sadness/Feeling down every weekend.

Any suggestions?

    I cant imagine the reason for your 'sadness', but my suggestion would be to feel thankful that you have found a person you are compatible with, are happy with, can joke around with, and be yourself with. Being thankful always makes me feel better, because when I actually sit back and take a look at all I have around me, I feel happy.
    Good Luck!

    Could be lots of things. But I'd suggest figuring the reason out before you bring the kids into it. Incase

    You'd rather be cuddled in his arms than go to a soul-sucking job tomorrow? I dunno. Just guessing here.

    After I have a great weekend, I'm sad too when the week starts. For a while, my boyfriend and I only saw each other on weekends. It sucked. Sometimes I only saw him every other weekend. On Monday, I'd be sad that he was gone. It's just something you have to live with. Try doing something special on Monday? Maybe something exciting with your kids? Something to beat the "Monday blues" :).

    3 months is a long time to be paying for a hotel for someone you care a lot about.
