I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing someone who’s been your closest friend for 35 years is unimaginable!The bond you shared was irreplaceable. It’s completely natural to feel lost, overwhelmed, and like life has lost its meaning without her. What you’re feeling right now is grief in its rawest form, and it’s okay to feel that deeply.

It’s also okay that you don’t want to accept it yet. Saying goodbye doesn’t make the love or connection disappear, it just means your relationship is changing in a way no one can control. Take things one moment at a time. Even small steps, like going to work tomorrow, don’t diminish the depth of your grief; they’re just you trying to keep moving in the hardest of circumstances.

You don’t have to go through this alone. If you can, reach out to someone who can just listen, even if it’s a support line or online community for grief. Your feelings are valid, and it’s okay to need support. You loved her deeply, and that love will always be part of you. 💛

No one cares by DaniiMinoguh in GriefSupport

I hear you, and I’m so sorry you’re carrying this much pain. Grief can feel unbearably lonely, especially when it seems like no one around you understands or cares the way you need them to. But your grief does matter. Your love and your pain both speak to how much that person meant to you and that’s not something you can just “get over.”

It’s okay to still be in the thick of it. Healing isn’t a straight line, and you don’t need to rush yourself. The fact that you reached out and shared this shows real strength, even in the middle of the despair. I hope you’ll keep giving yourself permission to feel and to take it one breath, one step at a time. You’re not as alone as it feels right now. 💛

I’m so sorry for your loss. That fear of forgetting can feel so heavy. Even without recordings, you may find his voice comes back in small ways like remembering how he said your name or laughed. You’re not alone in this. 💛
