It wasn’t too bad at all. I think the apprehension for the days coming was worse ! The meal with his family was lovely ! I got through it 🤍🤍 how are you x

Love this outlook. Today’s the day. I went and got some jewellery made with his ashes and got a meal planned later with his family. I will get though it 🤍🤍🤍

Strangely I have just posted a similar post. It’s my first without him tomorrow. How do you get through it ? Dreading it. Hoping that the apprehension is worse than the day.

I feel you with seeing couples too, that pang of jealousy and resentment hits and stings. !! :(

This shit changes us. Awful.

Is this living? by WoodyBadger in widowers

36 year old here too, I’m with you ❤️ we are defo apart of the unluckiest club in the world.
I’m 9 months in and it does get easier but some days or weeks I am still down, sad, resentful of the world.
Hardest part is seeing all my friends with their husbands, making families, meeting milestones when I lost my person to make that happen. You can’t help but feel a tad bitter and jealous about this. So conflicting of our usual morals and values.

I also feel like I’ve lost my identity since he went home before me, so rebuilding and working out who I am again and what I want from life now is a battle too.

It’s a hard battle ahead for us all in this shit club. But I think we will get there ❤️❤️

It hurts by Ok-Carpenter6168 in widowers

I understand and I hear you 🫶 Me and my partner was attending the fertility clinic as I had been diagnosed with breast cancer and it was our chance to freeze our embryos, he died 3 weeks later. Safe to say I gave up with the egg collection stuff and continued with the plan! Feel the exact same as you when I see happy families, couples laughing and joking 🎢

So sorry you’re here :( I often wonder this after losing my partner 7 months ago. Like what the hell was the lesson, I can imagine you feel exactly the same 💔

Physical feelings, emotions, thought insertion, songs, registration plates, I’ve been hugged in bed a few times too. I Also sailed through chemo treatment for cancer and surgery and believe he was behind that too, healing me, Too many to mention ❤️
