Corinne I wish I knew as you know I have explained my very own story and it goes deeper . Yes I want to hear more of course I want to understand so that I can try to help in any small way to make you feel a little less pained. Please tell me your story and I will listen intently.

corinne I feel your pain as I do my very own , my support system is very small as well her parents are both dead and so I cannot turn to them for comfort . My own parents are understanding and yet really we dont bring it up at all for no particular reason I guess we just dont want to speak about it. My children are too busy with their lives to care and the girls who cherrie was their biological mom were taken away. I dont know what type of support you have I hope it is more than my own but if not I want you to know that we need to support one another and help each other through the tough times and the pain. The tears that we spill.

Thanks, Corinne.  I appreciate the welcome and encouragement.  I can't imagine what it was like for you to be there with him as he died.  I knnow nothing will take the pain away, but the warmth and encouragement and people to share with will hopefully make it bearable while I heal.

Thanks Corinne.  I'm sorry to hear about your loss as well.  I can't imagine what it must've been like to be there with him at the end.

I'm grateful for any/all support I can get.  I've needed it from family and friends just to take care of the business I have, and I really don't want to burn them out with hearing me go over this too much.  Many of them knew my wife, too, and have their own grief and pain to deal with.  Having others to talk to is something I'm hoping will help.

Thank you.  I'm new to this so getting the welcome and the shared understanding of some of what it's like is very appreciated.  I plan to keep coming back.  I know I need the help to get through this.

I would love to know the story.  My marriage has not been great either.  I am missing him so much.  I know that pain.  I am feeling a little better on and off--some days better than others.  Some days I don't cry some days I break down and cry a bit.  Things remind me of him.  One thing that has helped me?  I've read books on grief.  I also did a teleconference if interested I can give you the name of the man and organization.  He is wonderful.  Talking to ladies who have been through this grief REALLY helped.  But also?  My mom and I every day watch BBC America --The Graham Norton show.  For at least 1 hour, my mom and I laugh together.  God Bless him...it has been something to look forward to each day.  Honestly? I know how you feel to some extent.  I'd rather have painful surgery than painful heart ache.  My whole life has changed.  Jess was going to help me rebuild my business.....and that isn't gonna happen ever.  I am lucky that I have online friends though whom I can talk to. YOu know? People push you tell you--move on, get over it, blah blah..but you know?  if you need to stay in bed all day? DO IT.  Do whatever YOU FEEL you need to do.  I still have days that I am only up a couple hours.  It is hard because my mom is in her 70's and needs help etc and that is so hard to.  I feel selfish but on the other hand....I am going through such painful emotions I need to shut down from time to time.  Sending you HUGS----

I am soooooooooooooo sorry to hear of your loss---I understand as much as I can from my perspective.  I know it is hard it's only been 9 weeks for me.... Jess and I never got to meet.  He was getting ready to come.  it has been so hard for me.  I have had trouble getting closure.  Where in the UK were you born?

Corrine,

I lost my husband and best friend just three weeks ago.  I'm still somewhat numb.  The tears won't stop but everyone is telling me I have to live through the pain.  There is a lot of good support on this web site.  Some day's I feel as if my heart will burst.  Nobody understands but us what we are going through.  You are not alone.  Bless you and your daughters.

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
