Hello Martyn2 my husband Pat was mad on motorbikes everytime there was a show of bikers we’d go some fantastic bikes we didn’t have one but the only thing he wanted to do was him and me on a trike riding down the Califonia coast with music playing ‘Born to be Wild’
A sight to see was at the Hoover Dam loads of bikers parked up in all there gear not young may I add but the bikes were amazing you take care

Jennison1946 hello.aaw that would have been a fantastic experience for you both.my gorgeous beautiful late wife sue went on the back of mine twice years ago. But with sue having a spinal problem called cauda equina meant she couldn’t risk it .but sue was very supportive of me even after loosing my right leg below the knee after my right ankle collapsed. I offered to give up my bikes but she told me that if I did she would come back and haunt me lol x

Valentine’s wasn’t great - but still here

Time keeps going on, as does life, whether you want it to or not

Hi @Broken2222
Yes time moves on and we survive somehow.
I feel the same moving further away from my husband. Never out of my memories always with me but time moving on and days months go by. The loneliness and loss never seems to leave always there waiting to reappear again.
Sending strength and hugs too.

So true , the first year that Chris died , I really didn’t want to be here, I would beg and plead with him to come and get me . I really would still rather not be here, but have realised , I just have to get on with it , best and worst way I can . X

Oh yes , the loneliness is so hard . I still have my son and his girlfriend living with me , but it’s more like bedsit land , they are in their bedroom most of the time , I’m in mine most of the time . Even when my sisters and husbands come to visit (not very often ) it makes me feel more alone . Me on my own . And of course when they go home together, I’m left sitting so alone just longing for my happy life back x

I spend most of my time on my own just looking out the window . It is very lonely and when I do see people it’s very hard when they go and leave you again .Its only been 4 months so I’m hoping that things can only get a bit better at least . If I go for a walk I end up crying all the time because he’s not with me I find it very hard to carry on
We just have to try find the strength to carry on a day at a time sending hugs to all

@Martin2 so sorry you feel like this ,2 months it’s still so raw for you . Yes you will just be existing at the moment . It’s so hard not having the comfort of your partner to talk to and listen to . Heartbreaking . Some people do find happiness in their life again , whatever way . I think we will never be the same person ,how can we ,when grief has touched us in a way that only we know. I know there is a lot of support on this site , sorry but maybe I’m the wrong person to listen to . Please look after yourself x

Hi everyone I think we all just exist and try to get through that day, looking at my husband’s photos last night it just seemed like I was looking at photos of someone from along time ago but he’s been gone only 10 months and I feel it’s an eternity and I’m moving forward and leaving him behind I know I’ll never be the same person I was but I am trying you all take care

It does seem so long ago since they were here doesnt it ? 14 months for me but seems like a lifetime. Will we ever get a crack at a bit of happiness again ? I hope so … its what keeps me going. I know he would want me to find some happiness but its so hard to find isnt it ? Xx
