Maybe the holidays aren't as cheerful as they used to be. Maybe they just put a big neon sign around the fact that I am alone at the moment. I don't mind being alone. I have a wonderful son and we have done tons of great holiday things together. But all of a sudden today I have been totally miserable. This happen to anyone else. Commercials are making me want to cry. I feel so rediculous. I am so not like this...WTF
Someone please tell me I am not alone here.

you are fab love
you need a big hug and smile

cheers

Grim,
You seem like a sweetheart, and I'm sure it won't take you long to find a girl to have by your side.

Good luck with finding a girl perfect for that NYE kiss. *smiles*

New Years is coming up now, and I have admit that this is the holiday where I feel most lonely. Throughout all of the years I have yet to have somebody kiss me at Midnight, and the trend seems to be continuing. LoL...Oohhh well, nothing new so I guess I should get used to it.

I dont know what I'd do without my kids(teens) over the holidays. They make being single bearable. Not that being single is bad... but just like many of you, it's a bit depressing during times like these to sit at home when you would much rather share the festivities with someone by your side, holding your hand, smiling at you through their eyes, etc. For all of those who patiently await the meeting of their soulmate... I wish you a wonderful New Year!

Hi all. I know what you mean, this year was the first in my life that I didn't have family around. VERY difficult! Good friends certainly helped me get through it. It also helps to know that I am not the only one that goes through such. This site has opened my eyes to the fact that men all over the world like BBWs. That's cool! Just wish there were more in MY area of the country!!!

Oh yeah, JC, please come visit NY...

Thank you for all the kind words and support they really helped a great deal.
JC - I did try to live Christmas through his eyes and you know what it worked wonders for my soul. Even though it was just the two of us Christmas morning. Surrounded by wrapping paper, (We had more fun with the pile of paper than the gifts I think) we had fun and laughed alot I am feeling a lot better today. Thanks :)

Hi nope you are not alone.. I feel the same some days and I have 3 kids living at home and 2 grandkids. I wish for that someone special to just sit with and talk about the days events etc to hg.. hold ..kiss. and be with . Some days I think it is all too hard this dating game other days I think yeeee haaahh. Depends on the days LOL. I hope that you enjoy the rest of the holidays and all ur wishes come true kiddo :)

It is very hard to be alone during the holidays, that's for sure. However, I know it may sound corny, but I'm sure there are many blessings in your life (your son). I know how you feel about being alone, but I have always said, it is better to be alone than with someone and lonely. I hope things improve for you soon. Smile!

No sweetie you are not alone. Most of us would prefer to be with that special someone. I know how the commercials are as you see I have no family. My parents, siblings and grandparents are all dead. I am a grown up orphan with the exception of the family that I have in Germany and I only see them every two years. LOL I still have contact with my ex-wifes family as they do truly care for me but it is not the same without her here. You see my home is now just a home for the most part. I do understand about the commercials as well as they show these large, loving Beaver Cleaver types of families; but fear not!!!!!!!!! As I have learned after spending alot of Christmas' alone that families are not born they are made throughout your lifetime. I have some very special people around me and you deserve some too. So I am sending you a BIG Christmas hug from Alabama and hope that it will warm your cool heart as you deserve someone to treat you right. It just takes time to find that special someone. Plus if you really think about it you have the best blessing of all; a child who worships you. I bet you are his whole world. To him you are Christmas and he loves you unconditionally. Try and live this Christmas through his eyes and see if that helps any. I wish you the best and that God helps you find that special someone just for you. *More BIG hugs to you.* MERRY CHRISTMAS pretty lady !!!
