An Ending of 18 Years Together...
11 years ago
It is with a heavy heart and a lot of worry for the future that I announce my mate/daddy Wolfcub and I are going to be parting ways in the coming year. It is as equitable as it can be, I think, and for mutual benefit. I'll be saving up money to put a down payment on a mobile or small home in the area, hopefully with some assistance from my RL parents and g'parents, who are both selling their homes this year to move permanently down to Florida.
I may seek a roommate eventually but one of my requirements I'm putting on my self for my own sanity (what little remains, haha) is that I be able to afford everything on my own, without depending upon someone else to make the mortgage/lot rent/bills/what-have-you.
That way, if I screw it up, I can't blame anyone but myself. ^^
It'd be nice to maintain/re-establish/form some social contacts in the south central Pennsylvania area as I will stay there, my place of employment is stable and changing jobs is one thing I don't need to be worrying about right now.
I'm not asking for money, or a place to live, or to join a group of cubfurs in their living situation - just some support and understanding if I'm seeming more "off" than usual. I'm aware my social-fu is lacking to begin with.
This isn't a fault-finding post, we simply changed in ways that mean we are no longer meant to be together in a relationship. Perhaps this is a little late in the coming, but the timing seems appropriate now, to take these steps.

Re: Same state as me, but different pat (extreme Southeastern PA... Philly to be exact).
But, yeah... I'm certainly very sorry to hear that things went the way they did for both you and your mate. *Hugs*
Please try your best to hang in there, kay?
I'll do my best. In terms of the timing and situation, things are just about optimal.
Well, main thing is, it will be nice to have you here in PA with us PA furs, Snuggems! ^.^
Well, in that case, good to have you here these past 8 years, Shnugz! ^.^
Good luck, my friend!
