I live on my own on the mainland, daughter lives abroad for app 15 yr and son in Ireland app 7 yr. I don't have any other family but do have a lovely man friend nearby and lots of great girlfriends. When my son moved with his family there he said he would be back every month , I took that with a pinch of salt as would not expect that ever, especially with a busy job, wife and now he also has 3 kiddies. I had hoped though he might pop on a plane say once a year for a wee visit. They have only been back a couple of times for friends weddings and he has been on a couple of work courses. I have only brought it up once in 7 years and his reply was it didn't cross his mind to come on his own. I go over every 2/3 months and love seeing the kids, but it wd be lovely to have some quality time with son as understandably he is to busy for that when I'm at his house. Am I asking for too much, should you just learn to let them fly and realise your special time with them is over. My daughter is coming back soon to UK, but again a few hours away and with her big family the situation will probably be the same. I wish I could be like my man friend who has 6 kids in total and all quite near and never really bothers about visiting or getting visited, he says it's his time now and wants to spend it with his friends and me, is that men do you think. Any feedback will be gratefully received.
Can I use my bus pass on London buses?
