Yes, it can be abit like that sometimes but think of good things and stay focused. I tend to remember the less fortunate people out there that have real problems and that soon shifts me out of any temporary 'down' times (which thankfully, I don't tend to get very often). Burning energy is always good...sex being one of them lol. |

"Just on own i dont have kids dont know why just feel bit numb "
Having kids isn't always a good thing and at least you can do what you like when you like.  |

"Sex usually cheers people upTo be honest most people who are feeling low would rather just have a cuddle than sex."
I'm still feeling rough, 9 people here later in total, I know there will be a bit of a bad vibe and yes a long cuddle would do the trick |

"Alot of "bah humbugs" so far today. "
There's a lot of people feel low at this time of year. Big expectations, loneliness and other factors contribute. I hope they find some happiness on a day like today. |

Big hugs to all those feeling down.
I was feeling like that but last night I saw the real spirit of Christmas and we took food packages and scarfs and socks out to the homeless, it was really humbling how greatfull they were and how nobody was greedy they only took what they needed, one man refused a scarf from us as he already had one and someone else may need it more.
That's the true spirit of Christmas xx |

I'm probably odd but I'm much happier being on my own than stuck with my family as I feel more lonely in their company. I think that's because they don't care to hide their complete disinterest in my life. |

I can imagine why you would be fed up with it then.  |

Xmas followed the same format this year as it always does.
My brother with his family failed to get a card, let alone any present to me. The card will probably turn up in April; any present will be in the form of an Amazon Gift Voucher, since he cannot be bothered to pick up a phone and call me (as phones cost too much! his words, not mine) to find out what I would like?
Last Xmas, my present was a £5 gift voucher which arrived in June. This despite he and his wife having a collective salary of 10 times what I earn. This despite me scrimping a little each month, so that I can send him, his wife and son a present and card each, in time for Xmas, but do I get a Thank You from any of them? What do you think???
Each year, it is the same; he still has his affluent lifestyle yet ignores his nearest and dearest. I thought I'd have become used to it by now, but it still hurts!
Rant over! |

I'm a little low today as I lost a dear friend suddenly on the 23rd, 1 who was instrumental to my swinging career and to realising it's Ok to be different.
But I'm at work and responsible for public safety and the Christmas cheer of 25 people who need help more than I do. So smile plastered on and away I go. |

Why do you bother to get him one though.
just forget about him and concentrate on the people who matter. |

I'm afraid that I would have given him a miss by now. I'm an only child BUT I did have a few very close friends who treated me badly and I just stopped communicating. My life is much less hassle without them to be honest. |

That sounds all too familiar Genguy. Sometimes the inaction of family manage to cause far more hurt than I think they realise.
Mine even manage to moan about gifts, given in good faith, on social media when they've made no effort at all. |

if he's always like this why did you think this year would be any different? Its your choice to scrimp to get them presents knowing you won't get anything in return.

I think if they just send a nice card because its not how much it costs its to show they are thinking of you, I would never complain about a preasant though, its because people are so used to getting everything they want, they don't appreciate things so much. |

I had aunts, uncles and cousins who did the same after I used to skint myself out buying for them. Plus I'd put thought and planning into theirs while my kids and I would receive gift vouchers
Two years ago I gave them plenty of notice that I wasn't prepared to do it anymore as I couldnt afford it and suggested that we stopped exchanging presents.
Less stress all round, I'd rather spend my hard earned cash on people who appreciate it |

It gets even better, I'm meant to be phoning my dad who's staying with my sister only to find she has changed her phone number without telling me and as always dad doesn't have his mobile turned on. No doubt my not calling will still be put down as my fault though.  |

I stopped celebrating Christmas. Prepared my family over three seasons and then I did it. Never looked back.
The main reason was the consumerism, it's absolut madness with the presents.
I stopped being able to see any rational reason for celebrating Christmas at all! |

Aaaaaaw! I'm not alone then!
Yipeee!  "
More money to spend on my immediate family instead of people I see perhaps once a year if that |

My mother does this with her mobile too. Only turns it on to call someone then turns it straight back off.
Send him a text then he'll see it when he switches his phone on |

I have kids: one still at home and a partner and I feel low this year. Daughter cooking breakfast for her and her boyfriend, Ben looking for a lost slat: don't ask...a normal day for everyone, yet I'm on the verge of tears and couldn't begin to say why!  |

Maybe I should correct that. The following comes from something claiming to be a translation of the brothers Grimm.
Then the first looked round and saw that there was a little hole on his bed, and he said, "Who has been getting into my bed?" The others came up and each called out, "Somebody has been lying in my bed too." But the seventh when he looked at his bed saw little Snow-white, who was lying asleep therein. And he called the others, who came running up, and they cried out with astonishment, and brought their seven little candles and let the light fall on little Snow-white. "Oh, heavens! oh, heavens!" cried they, "what a lovely child!" and they were so glad that they did not wake her up, but let her sleep on in the bed. And the seventh dwarf slept with his companions, one hour with each, and so got through the night.
Maybe it was the draws who were filthy. |
