I am so sorry Cindy. I lost my fiancee on May 19th. We were together for about a year.
I found him in our apartment. I was told it was a heart attack. We had just moved in and he was complaining of pains near his chest. I equated it to the move.
I am so wracked with guilt.
I was just me and him.
Like you my guy was my rock. And now he is gone. Everyone says it takes time. It has only been a month for me but some days I feel like why did he go and not me.
I have RA and have lost other people. I deserve to go more than he did.
I guess I am just commiserating.
I am SO sorry
