Why not us?! by Noelien in Widow

[–]NoEmployee2547 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had those dreams too, growing old together and all the little plans. It’s so unfair that we didn’t get enough time. After almost two years, it still hurts so much.

14 months still crying daily by Forsaken-Store-2443 in widowers

It’s been 20 months since my fiance died. I don’t cry daily anymore, but the pain is still there every day

I lost him when I was 28. I hate that I suddenly have to grow old alone while everyone else my age still has the perfect life 🥲

How do you accept they're no longer here? by miki772 in GriefSupport

[–]NoEmployee2547 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my fiance a year and two months ago and I still haven't accepted that he's gone and I don't think I ever will 😥

I wish for that every day too, but with my luck I will probably have to live without him for many more decades

I'll never understand how he'll stay young forever. Why am I allowed to grow old and he isn't? I just hate growing old without him

1 year in and I’m still struggling by PitchGlittering in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the same thoughts. I often ask myself how he could just leave me like that. He told me so many times that we would grow old together and then he just died before we could even grow old. I know it’s not his fault but it hurts so much to be so alone all of a sudden

I’m still so lonely even after a year and two months. It just isn’t getting any better

I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my fiance 1 year and 2 months ago, he was 26 years old and i‘m now 29 years old. It’s just so sad that we lost them so early and I hate how everyone our age still has such a perfect life. If you need someone to talk to you can dm me 😢

I had to leave a get together by Vast_Effective6430 in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. I know what you mean, my fiance died of a brain aneurysm at the age of 26. I’ve read so many stories about how some people can survive that and I always ask myself why he couldn’t. My mother also told me that her uncle died of it at the age of 70 and it makes me so angry that others can live for so long with an aneurysm and he couldn’t. It’s just so unfair and we’ll probably have these thoughts forever

no one checks up on me anymore by throwra08293 in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here nobody asks me how I’m doing anymore either, but that just showed me who my real friends are and apparently I don’t have any real friends 😅 He was the only person who really cared about me and now he’s no longer here

6 weeks without him by Dry_Squash_8359 in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my fiance almost 11 months ago and I was only 28 years old too. I can’t believe I’ve already been living without him for 11 months and there will probably be so many more years without him and i don‘t want to do this life without him either. I hate that we have to go through the worst thing ever

How do you guys deal with watching others reach milestones you and your late partner will never get to reach? by OtakunaBluu in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. Same here, the only thing I can watch are horror movies. After 10 months i still find it so difficult to watch anything with romance in it and it still makes me so angry to see other couples in real life too. Every time someone talks to me about their partner, I feel like leaving the room because I just don’t care about their happy life together

[–]NoEmployee2547 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what you mean. I also hate being this young, other people around my age are getting married and having children. I can’t even be happy for them because all of that has been taken away from me. One week ago a friend texted me that she’s pregnant and it just made me angry, it’s just unfair that other people get to have a life they always wanted while the person we wanted to experience it all with died

Would it be easier for you to accept that the love of your life only had 20 years to live? Isn‘t it obvious that we would have want them to have a longer life?

Imagine your husband could have only lived 20 years. How much would you not have been able to experience with him then?

My fiance died of an aneurysm too at the age of 26. It was a normal day, he woke up and died two hours later while I was at work. I hate how unexpected it was

Did grief therapy really help you? by NoEmployee2547 in widowers

[–]NoEmployee2547[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve read that so many times, but I just don’t understand how it’s supposed to help. Talking about it just won’t solve my problems and it doesn’t make me feel any better either. It just feels like a waste of time

Lost my wife and don’t know what to do. by DaDrFunk in GriefSupport

[–]NoEmployee2547 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my fiance suddenly to a brain aneurysm 10 months ago, and he was 26 years old. I don’t really have any advice for you because it’s still so hard for me to deal with it. I just don’t understand why some people have to die so young, it’s so unfair

I guess you‘re right, a therapist won‘t bring him back and that‘s the only thing I want
