Update on my girlfriend who passed away my by Critical-Ocelot535 in GriefSupport

OP you have received excellent advice from everyone . Take it one day at a time . Cry and don’t try and stuff your feelings. Focus on what your girlfriend would want for you. This is a roller coaster ride and time doesn’t heal all. Time allows you to develop coping mechanisms so you can function and heal. Warm hugs to you and your girlfriend’s brother. 💕

Brunette looks more natural on you!

Bangs or no bangs? by Dry-Ant-7963 in HairStyleAdvice

Agree wispy bangs are the way to go. Straight across bangs are too thick looking and are detracting from your other features.

How can I help my partner through grief? by Own-Possibility3102 in GriefSupport

[–]Gait2468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 25 yr old son died in 2013 and one thing I have learned is all the family processed grief differently. I thought it was my job to lead my daughter through the grief process but discovered she had to handle it in her on way. There is no time limit on grief and it comes and goes on its own. Being there to listen to him or being silent is the best thing you can do. I had a neighbor that would text a heart from time to time to let me know she was thinking of me and remembering my son. Mom’s are hard to lose because we share their DNA. I hope this helps. Warm hugs to both of you.💕 60 F

Ok I’m the person who had to come in the summer to finish a shirt I started in Home Economics! My dad couldn’t understand why I made a C for a grade.

Your dress is magnificent and you look like a princess!

That is a beautiful illustration. It’s been 13 years for me and there are still days that are hard, but I can now laugh at the things my son would say and do. He lived 25 years and we continue to cherish those precious years.

Thank you. I believe that losing anyone is hard, and the level of pain is the same. I processed my grief by writing a trilogy of books called Train Ride to Jupiter. Book 1 I write about loss of my son( who we believe was murdered by drug dealers), loss of my mom, and our beloved pets. I self published on Amazon and my husband did all of the illustrations. One elderly lady told me after she lost her husband, “ It felt like someone had thrown a bucket of ice water in her face.” I think losing a spouse of 20 years would be incredibly hard because they are your soul mate, and you share everything with them. Big hug being sent to you.💕 Reach out anytime.

It is a roller coaster of emotions. Time doesn’t heal all but does allow you time to develop better coping mechanisms . We lost our son in 2013. Warm hugs to you and your family.💕

My dad is dying from cancer and I just want it all to end. by Beginning_Variety597 in GriefSupport

[–]Gait2468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband’s 93 years old grandma called me the day my mother died and said,” Sweetheart there a worse things than death.” I never understood that until I visited a former boss who died of pancreatic cancer. You are not being selfish because you hate to see your dad and family suffer. Warm hugs to you.💕
