I miss being an us Lisa and Neil. I hate being a me. Does anyone else feel like this. 3 months on and reality is starting to hit. I hate this life being on my own. I just want to lay with my husband and be us again

You are not alone feeling like this. I miss everything about being us. Chatting about the news or a TV programme, planning trips out, deciding what to have for tea, sharing my worries, sharing laughs,
to name just a few. Nothing is the same now itās just me.
We just have to hope we can learn to live with it just ābeing meā given time. Xx

Got to say I feel the same as Barbara61,its been 7 months since my wife died and I miss all the things we used to do together, seeing couples holding hands whilst out walking always makes me think of how we used too and just the small things asking for an option on thing its now just me.
Can only hope it gets easier keep well all

I feel the same, itās 3 months since I lost my soulmate too.
I just hate my life without Pete, I wish I could be wherever he is.
Thereās not a minute of the day that I donāt miss him.
People say time heals but I know Iāll never enjoy life again, itās impossible!
You are not alone feeling like this, I really understand how you are feeling.
I just wish there was something we could do to make it better.

Hi
Your all so right even after 4 years for me I hate life without my husband
I still talk about him every day at work with family - I canāt help it he was my soul mate my best friend
We did everything together and after 25 years you canāt just let go
Itās a Friday night we should be together relaxing after a hard day at work maybe with a takeaway and watching a movie together laughing
Now Iām alone at home making tea for one
Does it get easier? Sorry it doesnāt you just learn to live with the loss
I keep myself busy with family friends and hobbies
But that never takes away the heartache
Iām not lonely just miss the love of my life sharing my life with him
I hope it does get easier for you all in time
Iām just glad David wasnāt the one left going through this pain every day putting on a brave face when inside I am broken
Sending my love to you all

I too miss being us so so much.
I hate saying my house, my car, my garden. It should be our. Our our our.
We instead of me or I just seems all wrong
I am so not adjusting to being no oneās priority, I was my husbands priority & he was mine just 13 months ago.
Time doesnāt make it easier, just makes it different.

Yes I will always be a Mrs and wife. This is my argument we are classed as a widow by the government, yet on any official paperwork your classed as a Mrs it annoys me. Me and Neil were the same I will never love anyone else till the day I die

I agree when the sun comes out everything seems less scary. Itās my husbands birthday on Monday. I hope he brings the sunshine. He was my sunshine and always bought me. Daffodils every week for my birthday and then until they died off. I miss him so much itās all the little things I miss that suddenly when you miss them it breaks your heart x

HI Lisefin
i am like you i have been on my own just over 3 months now and it is had to be a me instead of an us yes like you i miss having to someone to share my confesations with and going out and about with we were together for 56 years maried nearly 54 what i find and it does get me angry that because we are on our own i feel that the system and others take you for granted i had to fight for 3 mnths with the dwp to get my pension credit sorted but with help from c.a.b got it done they seem to overlook you and theres no one beside you to help and talk talk to about it
now the longer days are coming a lot of my markets are comeing back too so me and my dog go down town to the market once in a while i go to my husbands grave every other week and i go on 2 dog walks a month then i meet a friend in a park once a fornight with her 2 dogs and its helped me a lot it was hard at first and felt like turning back the first few times but i made myself do and am starting to feel stronger again now and its surprising how you meet and talk to people that are on their own too
i have my bad days where i cry at the least little thing that goes wrong because i have no one here to telk to about it i my daughters but its not the same
take care
