I feel disrespected. My son was in a motorcycle accident and is in ICU in an induced coma with high cranial pressure among other things. This happened on Friday. My boyfriend (we’ve lived together for 7 years) had a business trip planned for a couple of months now. A trip that he could easily cancel to be here with me as a means of physical and emotional support, but yet is going on this trip. He will be gone from early Tuesday through Friday. I have other children who come to support me at night but need to work during the day because they have bills to pay. My boyfriend makes over $200k a year and has options. I’m stuck here during the day with my ex husband who I haven’t seen in 12 years, he was an abusive alcoholic. He’s been fine but it’s awkward to be honest. I’m just in shock that my boyfriend doesn’t feel the need to be here with me as a means of support. I don’t feel that he really cares about me at the end of the day. I’ve been thinking it for sometime now, but I believe this situation speaks louder than words. I can tell others around me feel it (my other children) but just won’t say anything as not to give me something else to worry about. I’m 60 and my partner is 65. We aren’t children but I really feel disrespected and embarrassment to be honest. I know I’m emotional right now.
