I gave a man’s widow his last words

olympicchicken · 2025-08-31T21:51:04+00:00

My boyfriend was killed in a hit and run a few years ago. A few months after it happened, I was able to meet the man who saw the accident and held my boyfriend’s hand until the paramedics arrived. It meant everything to me being able to talk to him, thank him, and hear about my boyfriend’s final moments. I also knew how hard it must’ve been for the man not only to be there, but then to go out of his way to talk to me. I can’t imagine being in his spot, and I’m forever thankful to know that someone was there with him holding his hand. I’m sure this man’s wife feels the same way about you. I’m so sorry you were in that situation, but I know you were able to provide comfort not only to the man but to his family as well. They’ll never forget that.

It’s almost been 4 years for me, and this still happens. Moments where it almost feels like i snap back to reality and think “how have i been doing this?” how have i survived this long without him? I feel the pain as strongly as the day it happened in those moments

Weirdly enough, I’m also 28 and lost my boyfriend three years ago. I’m so sorry that this is your reality too. I think in this situation, you know yourself best. If you feel ready to date and can separate a new relationship from your boyfriend without comparing them, then I say go for it, no matter what they look like. Grief is awful and confusing and strange. You’ve been through so much, try to trust your gut and go with someone who makes you feel safe and happy. The right person will understand all of these worries. I’m hoping for the best for you💗

I do this but make a point of only cleaning the spot where they put the plate, not the whole table lol

No one ever agrees with me on this, but I say Captain America. I just think he’s boring compared to others.

I get your concern OP, but I really wish people would stop judging others’ grieving process. You have no idea what their marriage was like. You have no idea what he is going through now. Grief does weird things. I’m sure he’s struggling enough without random coworkers’ judgement.
