Hi,
I just dont understand people.
Maybe im not supposed to understand them.
I dont know if the world was like this before my husband died.
Maybe i just never noticed.
People dont seem that interested in other people’s lives.
Its all about them.
Anybody feel this way?

The grief caused by the loss of a spouse is the biggest secret in the world, no one can appreciate the heartbreak it causes until they experience it for themselves.
Out of all the couples in the world one person in each couple has to suffer this terrible thing that we are going through, the death of the only person on this earth who knows you better than you know yourself is life changing in the extreme and people have no understanding.
Sorry for your loss and the disgusting way the human race is treating you and the rest of us here.

Hi,
Yep! The world has become very selfish!! I think alot has changed since 2020 ( Covid ) and I also think death / bereavements are still very " taboo " really - either that or ppl are just pretty rubbish at knowing what to say!
I read a post on here the other day and a line stuck in my head - " People don’t want us to bring them down "
How long did Queen Victoria mourn for?! Curtains used to be pulled, ppl mourned dressed in black, the ones who passed were kept in their front rooms years ago and mourners popped in to see them…I think it was dealt with more openly then.
I’m finding this site, a few close friends who " understand " and just being kind to myself / doing things my way is helping.
