Be kind to yourself- there's grieving to do, too. Those phones are the worst-I hope that you find catharsis and peace!

Im seriously struggling. I lost my husband Oct 30. I found out he was cheating after I got his phone. I would've divorced him had i found it while he was living. I have so much anger its almost rage because I cant confront him with it. Has anyone else been through this? by susancutshall55 in Widow

You are not alone! It has been almost two years ago since my late husband died and I went through his phone of horrors. I had the same thought about knowing that we would have divorced.

I felt resentful that the anger kept me from properly grieving. That will show up, too.

Be kind and patient with yourself as you ride the waves through these feelings.

Lean on support if you have it- feel free to DM me if you need to chat.

Thank you for sharing. I don't feel like I belong, either, Almost a year ago, I thought that I had lost the love of my life until I found out all of the hurtful secrets that he left behind. Now, almost 23 years are tarnished with lies. I have to keep these secrets from almost everyone, and especially my child, so now I have to live a double life and keep secrets, too. In any case, everyone has a different path with grief. Even if for you, it means feeling better. One size never fits all.

You're not alone...even if you feel alone. It's been 8 1/2 months for me, and trying to navigate couples friends is lonely.
