Hey guys!!.. welcome to the questions channel!!! This is the place where you can ask any burning questions you’ve got about life as a Cricket Widow (or honestly.. any kind of sports widow). And I mean ANYTHING.. If you’ve got questions about feeling lonely during fixture season.. About how to bring something up without it turning into a full-blown argument.. About boundaries, balance, guilt, resentment, involvement, kids, weekends, or just thinking “is it just me??” Drop them here!!! This is a judgement-free zone and the chances are.. if you’re wondering it.. someone else in here is too. Our little community is full of people who live this life day in, day out.. so you’ll get real answers from people who actually GET IT. Now… here’s one of the most common questions I get asked.. and I thought I’d kick things off by posting it here properly. I’ll pop my answer in the comments so you can all jump in too 👇 Title: SHOULD I GET INVOLVED.. INSTEAD OF FIGHTING AGAINST IT? Post / Question: “I’ve been with my partner for X years, and this whole time I’ve tried to distance myself from their sport.. even though it’s such a big part of my life now. I feel like this constant push against it is what causes a lot of my negative emotions. Is it actually worth trying to get into it?” ⬇️Read the comments for MY answer!! Liv x

I’ve just shared a new blog all about January goals vs the fixtures list- and how cricket somehow manages to sneak into literally every plan we try to make 😅 Let’s be honest.. which of these are already feeling VERY familiar? 👀 - “We’ll book it once we know the fixtures..” - Holidays planned around match days (or not booked at all 🙃) - House viewings cancelled because of away games - Weddings you already know you’re attending solo - Saying “we’ll see if we can make it” to basically everything - Keeping Sundays “free”.. just in case they get through in the cup I’m sure you’ve got even more than me- maybe cricket is even playing into your OWN wedding plans?! 😂🙈 Drop them below.. I need to hear these.. 🏏🤣

The shared calendar has been updated this evening & is now filled with nets, committee meetings & games. To top it off All Stars has also been added - first season for my eldest! Hope you’re all ready! :)
