My husband passed away a little over a week ago.  I cannot imagine EVER getting over it.  I think maybe someday I will find some new kind of normal where I can maybe exist but right now I am like you are- the pain is so bad and it's so hard to get sleep and go through a normal day.  Worse yet- if you are like me then you have to return to work and go on with things.  My thoughts are with you Pamela- I wish I could send you your love back to you.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
