Gone after 46 years together
My husband died Feb.5th 2016 due to sudden cardiac arrest. It was 3 weeks away from his 64th birthday, 1 year away from his planned retirement. I do not want to feel this soul wrenching desperation . I want to be able to live but EVERYTHING reminds me of him. He was the love of my life. We married at 18, had our son, our only child when we were 23. I miss him so badly. My family, near and far has been so supportive but please, I need to hear something positive, from someone. One of my husband's favorite things to say to me was, " Lea(my middle name), Don't be a sissydick". I will mourn him the rest of my life but I need, somehow, to see I still have a life, I know he would expect it of me. Help, cause sometimes I feel like I am drowning in this sorrow and sadness.

I am sorry for your loss. It may sound trite and I know you have heard it too many times already. I'm sorry you have to join us in our sorrow. I am 18 months into this. Initially I felt like my insides had been ripped out and I had a gaping hole. Altho I still hurt and miss my Bill terribly the pain isn't as sharp.
That being said I still don't go out much. Don't care to shop. Can't make decisions easily. Would trade everything to have Bill back. I am trying to take baby steps.

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

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
