In reply to I hate Christmas - how do you cope?, posted by sly on December 13, 2002, at 13:37:55
I have a very similar problem with the holidays. The past 5 years I've loved them. I got married to a wonderful women with two kids that I love and who love me. The kids made Christmas happy for me for the first time in many, many years.
Know I've been separated for 3 months and ca not wait for January 2nd. I spent Thanksgiving in the hotel I'm staying in because I couldn't bear to be with my family thinking "Poor Peter". I'm 47 and seperated, that's sad. There is nothing wrong with 26 and single! I got married for the first time on my 26th birthday. I was too young then. You'll make ok.
Try praying, it's helped me a lot.
The holidays will be over soon. Hang in there. You have plenty of others right there with you.
Peter
