This is Margie again.  I'm inviting any friends out there that have had losses with people and have been estranged from them for a long time.

I am doing better with the loss of my sister, but I get these waves of anger, sadness and loneliness that overcome me.

I had to stay away from my family of origin because of the abuse and rejection I would receive constantly.

I remember when we were younger in grammar school this sister Claire did not have many friends and I once in my life had a good friend.  I would invite Claire to go bike riding with us because I felt bad for her that she would stay home alone.

That changed and Claire had all the friends and I didn't, the story goes on from there, not a great one.  I want to find peace around this, I know it will take time.

I hope their are others in the same situation or others who would to offer some hope.

Margie

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

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
