Re: FORGET IT!

Jamie - I am sorry I missed it. I don't know exactly what happened but I know how frustrated you have been lately with the schedule thing (I am assuming that is it bc of other replies). Sorry I haven't around this weekend to give you support. Don't go.

Re: FORGET IT!

James, I dont post here that often anymore, however I dont think that you should go, it was at night and i dont think that this site is very busy at night anymore, i think that you would get more responces during the daytime.... dont loose faith.

Re: FORGET IT!

Can you repost what it was?? us day girls are here now and we can sure give some words of encouragement. From the responses above I get the jist that your hubby had to work again, I am not in your shoe, but having a hubby that travels a lot does not make me feel very married sometimes. It even scares me knowing that we are planning to start a family, it definitely gives me the feeling of a single parent. I want my husband around more often. I get lonely sometimes, so when he goes away I stay with my GF's. Think about it, it will not be forever. Hope it gets better soon.

Re: FORGET IT!

I'm so sorry that you are upset. I don't usually log on at night so I missed what happened but I hope you will give us another chance.

I'm guessing like the rest of the girls that you and your hubby aren't able to spend much time together because of your working schedules??? My DH is a boat captain and I haven't seen him since July 4th!! He left to travel up north for the summer with the boat at the end of June and I took a weekend trip to visit him for the July 4th weekend. But now that I'm 8 months pregnant I can't do any more traveling so I won't see him again until he comes home in mid Sept. I miss him terribly so I guess I might know what you are going through. I am lucky enough to have parents that live close by though so I usually spend my weekends with them while Roland is traveling. Also, last year we got a dog which has helped. Not only does she make me feel a little safer at night but she's always there to step in as a cuddle buddy.

I hope everything works out for you. It takes some adjusting and getting used to but for me I've always felt that having the time that I do with Roland is worth waiting for.

Re: FORGET IT!

whats up? what'd I miss? swags thread is deleted and I can' see the thread she's linking to (must have been drama since its been deleted).

Sorry, that you're feeling lonley, and then on top of that you feel we're neglecting you. Not true!

Re: FORGET IT!

Jamie's post was in reference to the fact that her DH keeps getting called in on OT and they are not going to be able to spend any time together before school starts and they only have weekends. She was upset because she is missing him badly(hey they have only been married a month ).

Unfortunately many of the ladies who were on LIW last night got wrapped up in a ridiculous drama thread (now deleted) on the NWR board that escalated into name calling and typical nonsense. That was the thread she was referring to. So while one of our Newlyweds was having a crisis and needed support, people were too busy hopping on the drama post to pay attention to her. This upset Jamie, because she is always so helpful to everyone and there to offer support, and when she needed it last night it wasn't there. Before the drama post was deleted Jamie posted on there that LIW should be a place where we come for help, not for BS and that her feelings were really hurt that she didn't get the support back that she has so freely given.

Hope this clears things up for everyone.

Re: FORGET IT!

I think most of the NWs dont spend weekday evenings on here on a regular basis. Im sure you would have gotten tons of advice and support if you had waited until morning to delete it.

Re: FORGET IT!

I was on here last night and I never saw your thread Jamie and I wasn't on the drama on the NWR board either! Sorry you felt hurt but I think everyone posts things at times that no one pays attention to, please don't think it is because no one cares.

Re: FORGET IT!

I see what she means. But I personally don't go on evenings anymore and missed everything.
But I don't think Jamie should take the fact that people missed her thread personally. Newly board is not that active in the evenings, and I always get support in the daytime from this board.
I think we should have been given the chance to answer the original thread.
NWR gets a lot of activity from Brides -- remember tho' only Newlyweds post here.

Jamie, whatever the situation is at home I hope you're feeling better.

Re: FORGET IT!

thanks for the update Wendy

Re: FORGET IT!

Swags...

you posted on the right board...the Nw board is often drama free...but sometimes people get caught up in other drama...(when I see threads like that I like to ignore them and come to the NW board)

the Nw board may be a little slower...but the caring and sentiment are as high as they could be...don't let drama get you upset...

Re: FORGET IT!

I hope everything is ok....

Re: FORGET IT!

Oh, okay. Now I understand. I'm sure you felt terrible Jamie, especially since I see how giving and compassionate you are to other people.

I'm sure you were feeling down and lonely and disappointed at how your first month of marriage is going. Coming here to open your heart and get some support was a trusting thing for you to do. I'm sure when the responses were low, you felt even worse. I wish I had been on last night for you.

The fact that some people were too busy caught up in some immature drama to be supportive of you shouldn't make you leave us. After all, there are some people on here that I KNOW I can count on for a response or for some support, and there are others I really wouldn't expect the time of day from.

Look at how many girls are responding to you now, and who they are. Those are the ones you can count on. Don't let the others keep you away from LIW--they are not worth it.

Just like in 'real life' we find out who our friends are in moments of crisis (and moments of joy). Maybe this was just one of those times for you.

Also, if you posted late, maybe some of the girls who only log on from work didn't get a chance to see your post?? ETS: Sometimes I get no responses one day, and then the next day a flood comes in.

I hope you decide to stay on LIW. There is so much that you bring to the board, and it needs more people like you.
