I'm so very sorry for your loss. I feel like I can relate to the pain that you feel. Its been nearly a year since my mother passed away. She was only 57 years old. Alcoholism is a terrible disease and I tried and tried to get her to take notice and stop drinking and she just wouldn't. By the time she realized the seriousness of the issue, she did stop drinking, it was too late. There was no reversing the damage that the alcohol had done. Sometimes I feel guilty as if I didn't do enough to get her to stop drinking. But I know I tried. And then sometimes I get angry thinking that she didn't care enough about me to listen and stop drinking. I have twin boys who will never remember their grandma. She passed away a month before they turned 1---that really hurts. I want her to see them and I wanted them see/know her. I try to not focus on what I've lost but try to remember everything that I still have left and that is what I'm thankful for. I pray that God will comfort and strengthen you.

Addie replied to Kali's discussion It was not supposed to be like this in the group Being the Other Woman/Other Man
"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
