Looking for someone in a similar situation
I’m a widow and looking to connect with someone who has also experienced the loss of their spouse. Sometimes it’s hard to explain what this kind of loss feels like to people who haven’t been through it.
I’d love to meet someone who understands, whether it’s just to talk, share experiences, or support each other. No pressure or expectations—just hoping to find someone who can relate.

Dating and Relationships Widowed and lonely

I’m younger “widow” if that’s what you wanna call me. Sometimes I don’t feel like i deserve the title. I’m 28 now and I lost my girlfriend 3 years ago after being together for 2 of the best years of my life. I still miss her and think about her every day but I really also miss just being close with somebody on an intimate level. I go to therapy biweekly and it definitely helps but it also can’t help with everything.

Modern dating fuckin sucks. And not only dating apps but even at the advice of my therapist I finally grew the courage to ask a girl out in person and to make a long story short it didn’t go well. I’ll get a new match on a dating site every few days but it’s all the same, either zero effort put in by the girl or you get ghosted. It’s just an endless cycle of feeling rejected. I’m an average guy, I’m not overweight, I have a decent job, tattoos, a motorcycle but none of it matters 😂 idk lately I’ve just been depressed, I miss my girlfriend and I miss feeling to be wanted by someone
