Hi. New here.
Hi, Koi here.
Newbie from Singapore.
Hoping to catch a breather and seek a safe space from my unhappy marriage in real life.
Still figuring this app out.

Koi - I am inviting you to join me in the Sharing Circle chat group ! 😊
My apologies for the delay in reply. It was night when I am. And thank you.. I am still trying to process what's going on in my marriage. Am afraid I may still not quite ready to share in the circle.
Me as well!!
Hi there @Koi2033! Welcome to 7 cups!
Thanks everyone. The feeling of loneliness with no one to turn to is horrible. Hope to learn to more perspectives in 7 cups.
@Koi2033
welcome
@Koi2033 Welcome to 7 cups and I am sorry to hear about the marriage. If you ever feel like sharing more or need someone to talk to, don't hesitate to reach out :)
Hope you have good time!
Thank you again everyone.
I guess I took the first step to pen out the knots that have been strangling me.
I don't know what's next - will probably sit around a bit to read more, clear my head and figure out the next step.
Wishing your day well ahead.
@Koi2033 Hello Koi, Welcome to 7cups. It's great that you're reaching out for support during a challenging time.
You have used powerful and emotional words like "catch a breather," "seek a safe space," and "unhappy marriage."
I don't know what exactly is going on in your life. But one must understand that marriage in any culture or society is a "mutual agreement of respect, care, acceptance, patience, compromise, and commitment." between both spouses.
A spouse has to play multiple roles with multiple personality traits. For instance, they keep work and family life in two isolated jars or worlds. I am trying hard to practice it for a long time, but it is very challenging once you have kids who look up to you as their energy source, motivation, and happiness.
Many people find solace and understanding here. Remember, it's essential to communicate and seek help in real life, especially regarding your marriage. You don't have to face everything alone.
Feel free to ask if you need to talk or have questions about using this platform. 7cups has many compassionate listeners who could listen to you and may support you emotionally to better deal with the current situation. Have a great day, and live your life to the fullest.
@feureVox Thank you. I truly appreciate your thoughtful analysis and generous sharing.
Agree with your thoughts about the multiple roles that both spouse play. At this time, the balancing is off. I'm also hoping to mend what's broken after this present upsetting period eases a little.
I am happy to read your response, particularly about mending your affairs. Knowing that we only have limited control over ourselves.
As I said earlier, feel free to reach out to any potential listener and see how they may assist you.
Have a great day and live every day as it won't come back.
@FeureVox Thank you my friend. Do have a very good day and upcoming weekend ahead too.
