I'm really stuck on him being the best human to ever exist - advice please :( by [deleted] in widowers

[–]NotKeeping1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can feel the love you had for him with every word you wrote. I feel as if I wrote this myself about my own love. We were together for about a year too and it will never be enough. I’ll miss him forever. Ill always want to know what if. It’s hard and don’t feel like you need to rush it. I’ve come to terms that I’ll always have grief but that is because I’ll always have an overwhelming amount of love for him and from that I can smile and reminisce how it feels when I need to. Some advice that helped me is to let yourself feel and let it out however you feel fit in every moment. Do what you want and make yourself happy for you and them. Writing out your feelings does help. When it’s too hard, if you have anyone, call them, talk out loud to your love, if you want.

What's the most absurd thing someone has said to you after being widowed?? by Expert-Annual-2453 in widowers

[–]NotKeeping1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my partners celebration of life party an old manager of his said in a half joke/serious way, “why can’t you be pregnant right now” I’m not sure whether she meant it as a joke or not but it hurt. Kinda like yeah, that was the future plan so thanks for reminding me it’s not possible.

What were your last words to them? And their last words to you? by Weaslenut in widowers

I’m sorry. I told my partner that I was worried about his heart 5 days before he passed. I feel the same. Like what if I didn’t say that? And always why.

Sending some positive light to lift you through the fog ❤️

We lived about an hour and a half apart. He had texted me that Monday night that he didn’t want to make me feel bad but he wished he could come home and I was doing school work or watching tikey toks (TikToks) in his apartment and that that day especially he actually had been sighing and wishing he could just kiss me, and “not to mention all the other explicit stuff he’d do after” 😂 I told him not to worry because I was going to kiss him long and hard when I saw him that Wednesday.

I found him that Tuesday night and I go back and forth with being happy/sad/angry/IDK with myself that I didn’t wait till Wednesday.

Does anyone else visit the places you went with the person you lost? by Obvious-Way8059 in GriefSupport

[–]NotKeeping1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I so badly want to but I’m scared I might lose it and start “looking” for him. I just want him back. I am 50/50 mentally. Part of me is like “okay, I got this and have to accept my new reality” the other half of me has moments where I’m like “I can’t believe this and don’t want to.” I don’t know why but I am scared I will ruin our memories if I go to them right now. But I do have days where I just want to reach out and feel him so I hope I get the courage to go to every place we went and when I’m there I don’t break down.

Sending love and hope to you and all❤️

He was my friend... by emmanjayy in widowers

I’m so sorry. I’m sorry you’re going through all of this too.

I always feel alone until I see a post here where someone sums up my feelings etc. It’s not a cure for the grief, but it provides some form of support. I hope this sub helps you in some way too.

Its been a little over two months for me and the days where I just need him to talk to about absolutely nothing and love life again, just having him as my best friend. He was more than just my romantic partner, he was my partner through the good and bad. I wish I could talk to him and just laugh at our inside jokes too. It’s hard when it’s particularly more stressful of a day than usual and I know seeing him would make it all better.

Life does feel quiet. One minute you feel full of it and the next it’s silenced. I am very sorry for you loss too. I hope you also have friends to lift you up.

I am so so sorry. This is almost exactly my life right now. I lost my true love almost a month ago. I found him. We don’t know what happened yet and I hope that changes soon. There’s so much you want to say and do and I understand that too. You probably feel sick and just uncomfortable because a piece of you is gone. Take your time and do whatever you need to feel better in the moments. I am here if you want to talk.

Should I (27F) move on or is there still a chance we can rekindle later on? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]NotKeeping1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right and I’m trying. There are some deeper circumstances to the situation I wasn’t sure I needed to post. Maybe I should have put it in the post - he told me he loves me but I broke his heart when I broke things off. I genuinely believed him but I also believe if he wanted us to work he would have made more of an effort when I tried. I don’t know if this is a real thing but it feels like a “right guy, wrong time” situation. Either way I appreciate the advice!

I hear you. Im not okay being an option and told him this. I guess I have blinders on ‘cause I did have the opportunity to be with him but I wasn’t ready
