As someone who lost my spouse in the middle of March, 2018, a lot of this resonates. You never really think about what life could or would be like without them. And then (in some cases) you wake up one morning, and they're gone.
It never gets better. It never hurts any less. You just get better at dealing with the hurt.
- dtauzell 8y agoAlso in a similar situation. Make sure you let in all the love around you.
- sharadov 8y agoSorry to hear, I lost my mom and my dad is in a similar situation. He and my mom were partners in their work life as well, so he misses the fact that he does not have a sounding board.
- nickthemagicman 8y agoI felt the same way when my mom died at an early age. You don't really ever get over it, you just kind of move into a grey-er future. Side benefit of it, is that it makes you a little more existential, and a lot more cognizant of the time you have left, and really appreciate people you care about in your life. And it made me a better tipper.
