I have a shopping addiction. Ever since I found out about STBXH OW on Dday #1, I shop, shop, and online shop.

I think it's my addiction.

It used to be sex, when we were doing well, then my kids, now, since I'm all alone, I'm proud and ashamed to say I am addicted to shopping. :(

Proud because I can admit it and ashamed because I'm trying to fill a huge hole in myself....

(((libertyrocks))) Is the shopping holding you back from any other life goals? Is it making you reclusive or hurting your finances? I think everyone needs some type of outlet but if it’s becoming an issue we can help find some alternatives that might be more suited to filling the void.

No, not really any of the above.

I think I'm gonna go back to school and get another degree instead!! lol.

Thanks, sweetie.

Actually, when I was dating this guy, I didn't buy a thing, but now that it's over, back to shopping...
