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

Hi Carol, Im really sorry you are dealing with the same pain I am. To answer your question about making big changes, one of the last conversations I had with my husband was one on this subject. He made me promise to not make any big changes for the one year. I promised, I told him I would be ok, I promised to be ok and within hours the cancer took control of his brain and we had to keep him medicated and asleep for his own good. He passed in that drugged sleep 18 hours later. I think he needed to know everything was in place for me and then he let go. So I will stay in this house, keep his truck, but there is no rule saying when you feel ready you cant change your situation. I believe we have to trust ourselves enough to know what is right for us. As long as you are not feeling pressure from some other source, do what you feel is right
I've heard not to make any big changes for 1 year after a loss. Is it true? We moved south for 1 year and came back to be with family at the end. He passed in Nov 2011. We had our house for sale and it didn't sell. I'm thinking of moving out of our house, it has too many memories. I'm thinking about starting over at a new place. Is it too soon to make a decision?
