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
Chanel commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"I'm sorry to hear that you're still going through a tough time, Rain. I feel like some days I'm okay and others I'm struggling. I'm here if you ever need someone to talk to."
Rain commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"It's been almost two years for me. It doesn't hurt any less. Some days I push it away but then all of a sudden every bit of it hits like a ton of bricks. I did tell a few of my best friends and I mostly regret it. Now I feel it's just…"
Chanel commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"Thank you Krista for your thoughtful comment. I'm glad that I have a place where I can talk to my fomer lover. I don't know who to turn to, as I'm lost. I have a friend who's involved with a marry man but she has no idea what…"
Krista L commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"Chanel, I still check in every few weeks. I lost my guy a year and a half ago and I still talk to him every day. I miss him just as much as the day he died. I don't think there is any time line for grief. I don't think I will ever stop…"
Chanel commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"Is this group still around? I'm having a hard time with my loss. It's been a few months and I still miss him. I was involved with a married man who died in a sudden and horrific accident. I miss him a lot and I feel lost without him. I…"

Krista L commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"Thank you Darien for the encouraging words. I have been talking to Veronica in the Discussion "Still crying". It has helped me tremendously just to unload some of my thoughts about being in a relationship with a married man. My memories…"
Darien commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"Hello Krista,I'm afraid this forum isn't as active as some of us would like. I remember when I first came out here two years ago, raw with emotion. I still have times when I find myself still grieving, although it isn't as painful now…"
Krista L commented on Cathy Richardson's group Being the Other Woman/Other Man"I relate to so many of your stories. I lost my lover a year and 4 months ago. My biggest problem is that I don't feel as if I can grieve him. I have to stuff it all inside myself and never just let go. I have to keep up the pretense that I am…"

- Thank you Cathy. I have lost quite a few people in my life. But this is the most heartache I have ever felt.Grieving in silence is the hardest thing I've ever done. Our whole relationship was a world wind. Fast and crazy from beginning till end. I love and miss him everyday. Thank you.

Cathy,
Thanks for your kind words. I'm involved with Church and have started a monthly dinner meeting with the widows of my parish. Unfortunately the widowers aren't interested. My problem is I am starved for affection. I won't consider on-line dating until that feeling goes away.

joe kelly replied to Jade Rogers's discussion Hi!"Dear Jade,
I wish I had some advice for you because when I sign in, I notice that you often sign in I guess to check if anything new has been posted. Being lonely after losing your Love after so many years together is a major part of all who…"
Virginia G replied to Pamela philipp's discussion Defeated"I feel the same. The website doesn’t help because we aren’t talking and around people in person. That isn’t even enough when people are willing to talk and most don’t have time for me."
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"You are right. I became conditioned with my mom. Every health crisis that my mom would have was traumatic for me. And then there would be that ray of light. I would have mom safe at home once again. I developed some false hope. But as time passed…"
M Adams commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Baby steps is such a good metaphor — I think when we’ve been traumatized by terrible loss, many of us lose our resilience, and basically have to baby ourselves, setting very tiny goals and challenges, slowly working our way forward.…"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Theresa, it's hard for me to be positive about anything. I always feel like something bad is right around the corner. That's because every time I thought mom was safe and had cleared another hurdle, something else would go wrong. It's…"
joe kelly commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."It's been a little bit since I shared but it seems like I'm just stuck, out of sync with everything included myself in a way. It's been like one long endless day. I don't know how to explain it even. I'm…"
Linda Engberg commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."Monty,
For some of us, we will always remain out of sync with the rest of world.
We, like myself. live in our own universe."
Theresa commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Brett you are right that is the "dark" side, it scares me too
That is so great about the phone call from the directors at the center, that must have made you feel like a million bucks.
You are making a positive impact, I know…"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Avi, I actually looked up the EquoVox. I couldn't find an English link for it. I'll keep looking. I'm just really curious how it works. And I want you to make your own decisions. I just want you to be happy."
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"M, I'm half Catholic, and Theresa is 100% Catholic. This is a huge part of Catholicism. Ouiji boards just scare the crap out of me. I listened to a lecture series from a Vatican exorcists. There was a question and answer period. Someone asked…"
M Adams commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Brett, it gives me such a lift to hear about your new gig — sounds perfect! Lucky kids too, great when they can connect with an adult who also makes them laugh.
Your comment re the spirit world app that Avi came across brought back a…"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Avi, things like that scare the crap out of me. I mean, how do you know that you are actually communicating with your mom, and not something bad? I believe that you may open yourself to something that may attach itself to you. That's just…"
Brenda Ann left a comment for Lisa"Dear Lisa,
I send you my heartfelt condolences as well as a welcome to our website. It is a safe place to come and talk or vent about your loss. Talking is very helpful in sorting out how to move forward. I would like to share a paragraph from what…"
Theresa commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"No we should not, God is the only communicator Avi, you are right.
We should not disturb the deceased, they are in peace, it is us who are not in peace.
I still struggle everyday, I just have come to recognize that this is my new life. "
Linda Engberg commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."Monty,
I m sure everyone on our forum had a very bad day. I just kept myself very busy all. Since I live in Florida and it is in the 70's I worked outside all day long. I feel Julian is with when I am outside. He knew I just loved the outdoors…"
Avi commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Hi Friends,
Few days back I came to know an app EquoVox which can help you communicate with your loved ones who are deceased. It seems be fake to me but have seen some videos on you tube people claiming its real. Did anybody on this group…"
