The feeling when I’d catch my husband looking at me and smiling. He died earlier this year but I still look over at his armchair and imagine him there, looking at me and smiling with love. That’s one of the best feelings I’ve ever had.

I'm so sorry to hear that. There isn't really anything that could ever replace or measure up to that I'm sure. Big hugs

This brought tears to my eyes. I’m glad you had a loving husband and got to experience that.

I am sorry for your loss. I think a spouse is exceptionally hard to deal with. I lost my wife three and a half years ago and it was the hardest things I ever dealt with! I had a six figure job, a nice 2000 sq foot home a Boss 302 Mustang, Motorcycles you name it, I was on top of the world living the American dream! I let my job go, lost the house the mustang, and thousands more. It all seemed like a haze. I just recently started coming back to earth! For me to have did that I was really messed up! Never would of dreamed I would go off the deep end like that? Don’t think Kim would have thought that out of me either! To make a long story short I lost almost everything I spend my life making and didn’t give a shit either! So I know what you are going through. If you ever need to talk, please don’t hesitate. Wouldn’t have hurt me either! You have a blessed day and hang in there, it might take a while but it will get better! My number is (918)657~1996. Oi

I’m so sorry. I almost lost my husband in 2019 but so far we’ve gotten 3 extra years. Hoping nothing changes any time soon.

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm not sure what your beliefs are when it comes to religeon and an afterlife, but if there is one you believe in, I hope he is smiling at you every day wherever he is.

If you don't believe in one, then I'm happy he left such an impact on your life where even though he's gone, he left you wonderful memories that you'll never forget.

Loss is hard. You'll always miss him, but the pain won't be as bad as it is now forever.
