years ago women never even went to funerals,it was strictly man thing.yea you only need to look at the queen and the ones from her generation.never show emotion in public.it was always a british trait.now we have group therapy and men sitting about bubbling.my father wont talk to me lol

another fad from over the pond we could do without.nowadays your not hip if you dont have shrink.

Fore ever but it does get easier..

i used to avoid all that stuff,as i have a weird sense of humour. its when you see folk and you make the mistake of saying,how you been.than you get "oh i just buried my father/mother last week" i alw

...until you get a divorce

 

Everybody is definitely different I don't do grief ... I am a pretty unemotional person and that got nothing to do with being in the army I have always been that way even as a kid ... I can't even remember the last time I cried if I ever have ... One of my girls is the same ... We call her the ice queen ... She can sit in a room with 10 other people and watch a sad film and whilst the other nine are sobbing she just sits there stoned faced ?. And like me she just shuts down to things ... You can be my best mate forever but if you do me a bad turn I can cut you out forever without a blink ... And I am the same with death ...........

Thats interesting........ive been around some pretty fearless and probably quite intimidating people over the years but im yet to meet a man who had no weakness.......................its just a matter of finding it.................Please god it doesnt happen for a long while yet but whatever your weakness turns out to be Socks id almost guarentee you have emotion just like the rest of us.

Me....Watership Down still gets me every time :laugh:

Gnash I can tell you now that my Achilles heel is my kids I would be a broken crushed man if something happened to one of My angels ... I really don't know where I would go In my head or what state i Would be in ...........

I'm similar socks. I've cried though, f**k I've cried lol. Can't do it infront of anyone though, not being macho, just always had to show strength I suppose to help others grief. I've found I can file shit away at the back of my head and let it out gradually in bite size portions I can cope with. I've went through a lot of shit over last year or 2 with the ex. A lot of you will be saying, yea we know ya boring b*****d :laugh: but I've only said what I could cope with plus I ain't the type to tell any c**t my business especially strangers on a forum lol. I'll tell little white lies to protect myself like the 8ft caterpillar at Christmas being for my niece, it wasn't, that was for my 14 year old daughter. Wasn't all I gave her before I get called a tight scot lol, got iPad and other stuff. Just couldn't cope with saying it on here. I get her weekends, that's why I don't come on here then. I said to mochara I wasn't on cos I was bored, partly true but it was more to do with being in a dark place at the time. I put a brave face on, no c**t whether on here or friends and family know when I'm up or down, I'm the same way all the time. But that file at the back of the head gets mighty full sometimes and I need to release it how I can. I don't cry or any of that shit, just go quiet thinking of stuff. It mostly comes out in anger, just explode at fuckall then i think, oh oh lol. It's just how I cope I suppose. Why am I telling you this now? f**k knows, maybe cos I'm in a place now I can cope with talking about it. I know there will be folk on here thinking I probably f****d the ex about that's why we split, hand on heart it wasn't. She just didn't want me to have a life and I love going out with the dogs. Think she was also jelous that my daughter loved going out with them too and I'd spend more time with the daughter because of this than I did with the ex. Ex wasn't into hunting. Shit happened with the dogs and pretty much gave them up but it didn't make no difference. That's when I realized the dogs were just an excuse to nip my head, she'd just find other shit to moan about. That's when I knew I had to get out for all our sakes. Anyhow, I know it ain't grief as such but it hurts like f**k and still does. Not breaking up with her, that was the best thing I ever did but being a weekend dad, its f***ing the pits. I'm lucky I make good money and can make our time together special but I'd go on the dole if it meant I could get her 24/7. The ex is an excellent mother though and I'd never jeopardize their relationship. I'll just keep my filing system going lol.

i'd be the same t when it comes to my daughter mate. it's funny how you go though life invincible then your kids can make you feel so vulnerable i feel for you only getting to see your daughter on the weekends but it takes alot to step away from things for the sake of your children. :thumbs:

 

i still think your a haggis eating numpty :laugh::laugh:

:laugh: cheers raw. Aye it is far from easy but life with the ex was unbearable. The daughter would take my side too which didn't help matters lol. She'd have came with me in a second, said as much. If she was a boy I'd maybe have wanted that but a girl needs her mother. So you got to do what's best at times even though every sense in your body is screaming no. Life's a b*****d mate but we strive to do the best we can. I hate the ex, she hates me, I left her with everything for the sole reason to make this as easy for my daughter as I can. I ain't no saint mate, but I do have morals.
