1460 days ago I lost my partner the pain of loss seems far worse today than it did 4 years ago., and this is why i loath Christmas.

I go through the motions of the festive season but my heart is not in it, its something I want to be over with as quickly as it comes.

Thankyou so much for your insightful thoughts, and you are right, the sorrow is the price we pay for love.

That’s so true, but there’s another saying, it is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all 💔 Remember the good times

in reply to Arymretep

I was going to say that saying I'd rather have had love and a happy less lonely life than all the years I've had alone often resorting to comforts like alcohol or food luckily me and mam have had each other hopefully I'll be well enough to get a dog when mam dies not sure on the training tho 🌈

Hello snow wise words as I mentioned to arymretep I've never experienced true love maby my time will come maby secrets you will love again fate often brings someone when we least expect it, I don't fancy been a old lady on my own as I have no children mam has always had me the 19 years she's been widowed and grandchildren great ones too, how are you 💛🌟🌈🌜it was new moon yesterday full on 26th

I'm so sorry. Losing someone you love is hard. Even more so close to a holiday. There is no time limit on grief. People tell you so but there isn't. Take extra care of yourself right now.
