Exactly!

Comment by bluebird on February 4, 2018 at 11:04am

Me too. This is not life, without him. It is forced, prolonged punishment.

Comment by Marjorie Willcox on February 4, 2018 at 10:04am

I feel just the same way

Susan,

Since my beloved Husband Julian died I no longer feel a part of anything.

I don't want a normal life, I want to be with him.

Linda

That is exactly how I feel in my house "safe" and "close to Chuck", but I have no choice, I have to downsize. It's the practical choice. But it is tough. I have realized as each day goes by that I will never get used to my new normal (life without Chuck) but will have rejoin society at some point. Thank you for your words they gave me peace...Susan

Susan,

Don't let your friends and family tell you what you should be doing, do what you feel is the best thing for yourself. I still rent a home in Florida where my Husband took his last breath, I can't find it in myself to move back to Michigan nearer to family, this was the last place I lived with Julian and I feel safe here and that he is close by. After 5 years without him, I still have a hard time going on without him by m side, but I force myself to join in society. It does get better each year

but I will always be the same Linda and do not want to start over.

I am nearing the one year of my husbands death....I relive every second of the last two weeks of his life everyday, so it doesn't seem so long ago...I wonder if I will ever stop doing that if i will ever just relive the happiness. I just have a question for all..Does it ever get better? Will I laugh again? Will i get myself back? I have cried everyday since his diagnosis 2yrs ago I don't know what its like to not cry...I am only 49 and like most of you all cant not bear to look ahead at a life without my person..The one person who had my back! It is a challenge to do anything but I do it so my family will stop telling that "I have to keep living"...Not one of them knows what it feels like, not one of them has been in my shoes and they keep telling me what I should do! I have to sell my house this year and it is tearing my apart it..we finally bought a house to settle down after moving around our entire marriage, my husband served 26 years in the Air Force and moved every three years..This was our first house that felt like our home and now I have to leave it...Its not the worst thing but its hard....Thank you for giving me the opportunity to vent...I hope you all find peace :)

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
