Just the Usual Rant, Nothing More.
I've cleaned up from dinner, did the dishes, gave the boy a bath. Now it's 7:30pm and I'm off duty. This is the lonely part of the day. I could get on the phone with a friend. I could send out some emails. I could surf the blogs.
*sigh*
But at the end of it, I am just craving something I don't have. I want to be excited to spend the evening with someone. I want this to be the best part of the day, our time alone. As it is, the husband and I usually wind up mutely watching a movie or reading in the same room. Throw in a fight or two and you've pretty much got the picture.
Oh god I am just done with this.

Well a cyberhug is not much, but >:D<.
Fuck, I don't even know the correct keystroke construct for a cyberhug.
Hm, tough, ain't it?
I hear you. We've progressed to evenings spent on opposite floors of the house.
Lonely in your own marriage sucks.
Do you ever think you will get out of this, or are you hanging in for the kids?
I don't have kids, so this is just an opinion, not experience talking, but I wonder if the "hanging on for the kids" approach actually does any good for the kids in the long run. Maybe a happy mother is really a better place to be.
My parents split when I was 14, my youngest sister was 8, but I have no way of knowing if that was the right time, too early or too late.
the last 6 or 8 months of our marriage, we spoke maybe 10 unsolicited words to one another each day. Once the kids were in bed, i went to one room, he to another, and there was silence the rest of the night. not once did he ever say, "hey baby, come in here with me."
i know a bit of what you are going through
I've been thinking about this cyber-hug problem all day and this is the best I've come up with:

I did come up with a cyber- bittersweet half-smile of concern, but I'm afraid it's a pretty ineffectual-looking hug. Sorry. We're all doing the best we can from out in cyberspace.

Mired: I don't even know what keystroke that little wing-dingy smile is. But I like it. Thanks.
Mired, the answer = Cx.
bwahahaha, rotflmao
What? There's another way to spend an evening at home?
