I am not sure why but today suddenly out of the blue I felt quite lonely. It's like I have devoted my life to my family, my kid and my work all my life and then turn around and realize I have no friends to hang out with. My daily routine is work n home after. Weekends is family n never out with friends. Even if I go for my occasional pampering facial and pedicure it is by myself and never with a friend.
I have two gal friends who I hanged out with for dinner sometimes when the 3 of us are free to meet up. Other than that., no more. All my other friends even though we are in touch via Facebook have grown apart after all these years. They have continued with their life in a different way that I can no longer connect to them and there are no more common topics to chat about. Even though I have known some for more than 10 years now.
I suppose this could be how some wifes and/or mums felt when they have devoted their life to their marriages and their family and their family and/or marriage life collapses. They are left feeling empty, disconnected and neglected. The life buoy that you have been holding on no longer support you and the world that you have been living in just collapses into pieces.
That's why they said emptiness/loneliness is a scary thing.
