    Men's business

    I'd thought I'd start ANOTHER THREAD.

    This thread is all about bloke to bloke, heart to heart. I want to open it up to blokes who want to 'spill their guts', and for blokes to help them while they go through life's challenges. I don't mind the input from the opposite gender (lol) too. Sometimes, us blokes get it soooooo wrong, especially misinterpreting things!

    Today was my youngest bloke's last day at home. He's flown the coup and moved to the big smoke in pursuit of his dream. He's got a job, and with divine intervention, I've been able to put him up in a back packers hotel, for a week and believing that somebody in Perth will come good with a room for him until he's able to stand on his own two feet.

    He want's to eventually get a place of his own, but it was a Kodak moment when he opened the door to his 'room' at the backpackers. 3 x unmade bunk beds, and he scored the 4th one - a top bunk. It was a Kodak moment for me, too. lol.

    A few prayers, a few hugs, and a few tears prevailed as I said my goodbyes. A bit of fear and excitement prevailed as I walked out that door. I told him I'm only a phone call away, and will support him REASONABLY until he gets his first pay packet.

    Thanks for reading this. I'm a bit vulnerable and 'teary' at the moment. lol hahaha

    Another question.

    I'm married, but living the life of a long distance relationship - something I'm not happy with, but it's best we can do at the moment.

    Now that I'm home alone, what do single blokes do besides drink phiss and drive their troll like they stole it? lol

    I need ideas.

    Take care out there.

    Sounds like you've done all the right things mate.

    Letting him go out on his own into the big bad world and make his mark is obviously hard, but you, and your young bloke, will achieve a great sense of achievement when he's standing on his own two feet and says "look what I did Dad!"

    If things hit a few bumps along the way he knows you're there to help smooth things out, even if it's just by talking things though with him.

    Hey, at least there's one less person in the house to pinch your beers now

    Hard one mate I have been away from my partner for over a year and dealt with some serious depression but it passed (was going to ride my bike over train crossing) but that was 16 years ago and we have now been together for 18 years.

    I really hope your son does alright as it can be hard for a young male on his own.

    Cant get too deep at the moment as I am juggling trying to get my kids to bed right now.... mayhem!!!!
