Sorry you are feeling low. Good you cry as it does release some sadness. Take care of yourself and don’t be forced into a relationship that you may not want. Seems a good idea to take some time to think about what you want. If someone cares for you they should respect how you feel.
For me personally my husband was my one true love so I don’t want another relationship. But I understand others want one. I am only 5 months grieving and it still feels so raw. I woke up this morning and my heart physically ached from missing him so much.

Keep sharing

Cut at an angle just below the little knotty bits that will be the new growth.

Same. John was too hard an act for anyone to follow. Like chalk and cheese, and we actually agreed on very little; but nobody else could take his place. We were soulmates.

Hi @Catrin1

That sounds like me and Roger, so different, rarely agreed,
often argued.

But so very much in love with each other.

My better half has gone and I will never ever get over losing him.

Love and hugs

I’ve been in a swamp big time today! Maybe cause it’s a Sunday and my husband died a year ago on a Sunday, but it’s a hard day.
Love to all who have felt like me today xx

My husband passed 11 months and I too feel like I’m going backwards. I think I’ve kept myself so busy that I feel liked I’ve masked it all and now having to deal with it… fortunately I’ve just been away for a week with my sister , came back yesterday, very quiet and lonely again!

Alilye. I was the same today for some reason. Just so low and as soon as my son left to go to his home I dissolved in floods of tears but had to gather myself together as my little dog was desperate for his evening walk. The sun came out so off we went. Felt better as I always do when I got home. I am 80 so it worries me that with his good luck he will outlive me but if you can get an older rescue dog( there are so many poor darlings in eastern Europe and abandoned ones here that they need love and a nice warm home,they would help you in turn!

I thought the last few days had been better, but this afternoon everything just hit me again - it is 13 weeks and a day and I have been thinking a lot about My Jon, what would would have been doing, the silly conversations we would have enjoyed on a raining afternoon. I just miss him so much …

I could throw all this bloody chocolate cake in the swamp and make a ramp, then we could all climb out.

Do you have enough to make the ramp and for us to enjoy some when we get out of the swamp? Some good chocolate cake might help …

The only way I get through day is to write a to do list night before. Didn’t do it last night so have spent all day in tears feeling sorry for myself! Hopefully I get some sleep tonight and tomorrow will seem better. Love to all in this awful situation xx
