I don't even know where to start, or how to begin. Since I don't really know you two, I guess a bit of history wouldn't hurt. I've been married for a little over a year, and currently my husband and I are separated. This weekend he is leaving for two months. He's gonna stay in Az. for one month and Ca. for another.
Anyway, I'm going through one of those depressing fits right now where I feel all alone, and I really need somewhere here. My closest female friend, Ezzie, is going through some problems of her own right now that mine would just seem petty. And there is no one else to turn to. I need someone's shoulder to cry on.
Since I can't have anyone here with me now, I'm turning to the net for help (I know, how pathetic?!).

Hi Tiggs, I don't know you either, but...
Of course it's not pathetic. I'm sure many of us have done the same. But in my experience, turning to the 'net when I'm feeling lonely and depressed only makes the feeling worse. All we can do is listen and offer our sympathy, so if it would help to tell us about it and get if off your chest, go for it.
Hang in there!

It's okay Tiggs. If you need to talk, I'll listen too . . . as long as Frank N. Stein, my computer, doesn't crash again.

<smiles> Thank you all. I'm actually starting to feel better. I guess I needed to vent some. 
I'm actually talking to Hungry Man right now and sorting out some stupidity in my head. Thanks all for "listening".

I am so shit at trying to make people feel better, but I do agree that the more people you can share your load with, the lighter your burden becomes. Would it help to notice the good stuff - like you'll be alone for a month or two, perhaps some well deserved time for yourself. A time not to feel responsible for anyone else, just you - a time to self-indulge. Good luck Tiggs, and enjoy your space and have fun. you desrve it babe.

Talking does do good even if you don't know the person.
I find that I usually turn to my friends on the web when I am sad too, they sometimes understand more than my friends in RL do.
I am happy you are feeling a bit better, and by the sounds of it, you have alot of good friends here to turn too.

Hi Tiggs
Even though I am new here, I don't mind listening if you want to talk. I am coming out of the worst year of my life & would not have made it this far if it weren't for my friends on the internet.I am sorry you & your hubby are apart, I know how difficult that can be as I only see my fiancee on the weekends due to job committments & family stuff. Take care.

Tiggs I really hope you feel better. Like SB I suck at making people feel better. But misery does love company and I am a good listener so if you want to bend my ear or use my shoulder they are both yours for the asking. I'll have a good thought for you.

I want to thank you all for your responses. It is now the next day (and I was able to get a few hours of sleep!). Anyway, after venting on some e-mail, and talking to two very nice young men on the West Coast I am feeling MUCH better. Thank you all for being there and caring!
(And thank you God for not allowing that Cole-Troll-Thingy or Dave in this thread!!!!

Tiggie, you know that no matter what is going on in my life that I'll always make time for you. We can cry on each other shoulders. Just let me get rid of this cold so that doesn't get you more down in the dumps. lol
We'll get through this chicky, whether it be my pregnancy or Brad leaving for 2 months, we'll make it as long as we stick by each other. Just think about it, we've been through a lot harder times than this and this is just a way to make our friendship stronger. Compared to all the other shit we've been through this should be a walk in the park.
But I do want to apologize to you for something, I've kind of made my problem out to be much worse than yours and I've neglected to be the friend I should be. Instead of me leaning on you for support you can come lean on me anytime. I'll even bring the kleenex and popcorn.
Love ya Tiggs and I'm here for you anytime.
