Seperated from my DH a year ago, he was my best friend...things are better and we are on friendly terms but obv it's not a support.

every single one of my good friends has moved away in the last few years, and being at home all day with my DS I am beginning to feel really lonely, but lacking in confidence to get out there and make new friends for multiple reasons atm

Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat?

Yes choochoo I moved hundreds of miles from friends and family to be with stbxh, we split a couple of months ago and although I've been where we live for 8 years and do have a life here I have still been really lonely at times.
If DS is still little, maybe try parent and toddler groups? The people you meet there may not end up being life long friends but they would be someone to hang out with and having kids the same age is always an easy talking point.
But you are not the only one - joining you in that boat!! Wink
