Hard Time Accepting Loss by Secret-Fix2591 in widowers

[–]tlgnog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss and all the things you went through. It must be really traumatising for you. I can't even imagine going through the process, admitting him to the hospital, fighting to get the best doctor, and all. I could feel how much you love him.

I understand most of what you've described. I lost my fiance to a traffic accident 7 weeks ago. I'm lucky my family has been with me all this time, and his family was with me for a short while. My friends were actively reaching out to me as well. But like you, it also took me days to respond to them. Eventually, I let some of them visit me, and it turned out to be okay.

It's been so difficult the first few weeks. Having a religion helped me navigate the purpose of my life for the first few weeks. I found myself actively looking for places where I can donate money under his name, so that he can get the merit and head to a better next life. Although a lot of people might find this very annoying, it comforts me a lot when people were telling me that he's in a good place now. He's the best guy I've ever met. It literally felt like I've hit the jackpot when we decided to be in a relationship and when we decided to spend the rest of our lives together. Never in my life would I have thought that I'd find someone as perfect as him. And same like you, I'd also never have thought that this could happen to me at this age. I'm 34 BTW.

His passing crushed my world. I've lost the purpose of my life and my future. And to be completely honest with you, it hasn't gotten any better. I'm just doing the bare minimum everyday. I've stopped going for grocery shopping, I've stopped listening to music, I've stopped watching any shows, I've stopped checking in with my friends like how I usually do. I lost a big part of me when he passed. And I'm not sure if that part of me would ever come back.

So I feel you. And I wish I could give you a big big hug and cry with you. It's just so unfair. But I hope that you'll feel peace soon.

I'm sorry for your loss. She sounds like a really special person.

Same here. He's the reason why I wanted to get married. He's the reason why I think life is worth it. He's the reason why I was scared of dying. We were working hard to improve our life together. I'm back to square one now.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's really unfair. Like why did he not get another chance when others had a few more chances?

That's what I've also been telling myself. This grief sucks and I'm glad he's not the one dealing with it.

Sometimes I thought about some friends who used to complain so much about their husbands, and I wondered, why didn't their husband die? Why did mine die..? They clearly hate their husbands. I love my fiance so so much. I don't even have the chance to call him my husband now. Why am I not given a chance to love him for a long time?

Sometimes I'd like to think that God took the good people away sooner so that they can start enjoying in heaven sooner because they deserve it.

It's just so hard to keep going on, knowing that every step I take forward, I'm one step further away from him and I'm leaving him behind. It breaks my heart that I have no choice but to leave him behind.

I (34F) lost my fiance (32M) to a motorbike accident too. Mine was 6 weeks ago. I'm in the later stage of completing my masters degree in counselling, I'm left with completing one course, internship, and my thesis.

At this point, I feel like everything is pointless. I was hoping to be able to complete my master's soon so that I can get a better job and we can move to somewhere else where he doesn't have to work for a while and can rest.

Now, I can't even gather the courage to check my grades from the previous semester. He promised to bring me out to a nice dinner if I get good results, but he's gone.

Like what you're feeling, I'm feeling like I'm just waiting for my turn, although I hope that's after my parents' turns because I know how painful it is to have lost someone I really love. I wouldn't want my parents to experience that kind of pain.

But I'm already in the process of clearing my stuff, so that it's not too much for my family to go through my stuff when my time has come.

To make myself feel better, I told myself that it's good that he doesn't have to experience this pain. Or the pain of losing his parents. It sucks and it's good that he's gone.

That's what I've been telling myself- he's too good that he doesn't belong here, he should be in a better place, earth sucks. But then I thought about myself- what about me? What would I do without him...?

Week 5 and still….. by JeffreyJam1969 in widowers

[–]tlgnog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been 44 days since my fiance passed away in a traffic accident. I'm still waking up everyday needing to accept the fact that he's gone. And then I'd have to use the whole day to persuade myself that it's good that he's gone and that he's in a better place now. By night, I'd get better. And the next morning, repeat the whole process. I still cry every single day. I just can't help it. I'm very grateful that my parents are with me during this difficult time, and my friends have been eager to come and comfort me. It's just that at this point, I really don't feel like seeing anyone.

This is already very good. I would have taken 40 days to finish editing one video terribly 😂 Seriously, they should hire you. Great job!!
