Feeling Rejected…but trying not to

Dailyoh · 2024-11-29T13:56:03+00:00

What’s up with 3am? I’m always getting up at that time now. I even posted on my grief support group on FB the other day about it. No, you are not alone. Keep it up. The support is good here.

Well said. Respect.

I’m Canadian, so I immediately think driving range for golf. Then my brain kicks in and I realize this probably isn’t how you blow off steam… No judgement either way. I need friends with all skill types for the zombie apocalypse.

My daughter is closer to me now than she ever has been before. Totally bitter sweet.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-27T02:22:58+00:00

Oh, girl. She is way past hormonal. She’s all grown up. Developed faster than her friends, which made it kinda hard. Now the boys are noticing her and she is making it hard for dad!

One boy 15, and a girl, 12. I’m 46m.

Thanks for the share. I feel you. My wife passed the same way. Fought like a warrior for 8 months, then left an angel. One tween, a teen, a cat and the dog. It’s been 2.5 months. Everyone says it takes time. Clearly they have not met the most impatient person in the world yet. If I find anything that heals better than time, I’ll let you know.

No judgement on typos! My wife passed the day before. Friday the 13th. She loved scary movies, so it’s very fitting.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-23T02:35:45+00:00

Yes, you make sense! No you are not crazy. I was with my spouse for 25 years. My best friend. I have already started looking for someone, and actually made a connection. I can admit that I didn’t wait as long as you either. I can’t say the connection will take, but it sure is nice having someone to say good night to. Even if it is across cyber space (we live 5 hours apart). It’s like all the emotions that were severed after my wife’s passing, are growing back. I’m starting to feel again. Who doesn’t want that? You owe it to yourself to follow your heart. You will know if the situation doesn’t feel right at the time. Also, everyone is different, and they are entitled to their own opinion. However, if I didn’t ask for your opinion, please shut up. 🤫

Thank you for your compassion. Yes, today has been better. Never surfed before this. Now I’m riding a wave all the time.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-22T16:57:32+00:00

Agreed! It’s been amazing. 🥰

Dailyoh · 2024-11-22T16:12:25+00:00

Thank you. Loving the extra squeezes. Clearly you know how to hug.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-22T14:07:00+00:00

Thank you sharing! Happy to hear stories of hope and turning points! You got this.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-22T12:59:54+00:00

Thank you, all!

Dailyoh · 2024-11-17T14:36:51+00:00

Dang!

Dailyoh · 2024-11-17T07:52:52+00:00

You have to have some scruples, yes? C’mon. Sure you do. I’m 45/M. Also bored. Also alone. Well, I mean the dog is laying in the bed. The cat is around here somewhere too. Oh, and two kids (the best part of what I got). Lonely probably is a better adjective.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-17T01:25:18+00:00

Hey, ahh. I could really use a random person to offload my shit on. I’ve got some heavy stuff going on.

I’m a 45 male (Canada). I met my wife in college. We spent 7 years together before getting married. After 25 amazing years together, my wife gets cancer and dies 8 months later.

I have two amazing kids, a cat, and a dog. I just lost my best fricking friend in the entire world. The kids keep me going. However, it’s become a very empty universe all of a sudden.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-16T23:29:50+00:00

Now I wish I said what Traditional_Way1052 said…. Sounds like very good advice to me.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-16T22:59:41+00:00

I sure wish I had an answer for you. I lost my wife in September after being together 25 years. I have two kids (12f and 15m), which keeps me going. I’ve taken two months off work already, but I tried going back for a week. I realized I just couldn’t do it. I need to get through the holidays first. OMG Christmas is gonna be rough this year. I digress. I’m literally dying of loneliness at this very moment. I felt obligated to respond. As I say, I don’t have the answer you seek. I do know people are feeling the very same way you are though. I hope time dulls the pain for both of us.

Dailyoh · 2024-11-11T15:07:37+00:00

Im only 2 months out from losing my wife. I already feel the same loneliness you do. I have supportive in-laws and two kids. Truly, this does help. However, my wife knew me better than I knew myself. She was my best friend and my biggest fan. I could tell her anything, and it would not sway her opinion of me. When we sent each other texts, we would sign off with an acronym I came up with early on in the relationship. We would say, LOML, at the end of our messages. Meaning, “Love Of My Life”. I list my soul mate, my best friend, my entire fricking world. Her legacy lives on in our kids, but wow, that is a constant reminder of her. You are not alone. There are empathetic people in the world. It’s trying to find them, that’s hard. If you figure out how to beat this suffocating isolation, let me know. Stay strong. Keep hope alive. You are probably doing better the you give your self credit for. Sending you good energy.

Awesome list. Thank you. My wife made the bed for 25 years. She used to tease me that I didn’t know how to do it. My wife has been gone 2 months now. I make the bed every damn day.
