My fiancé passed away
Hi. I’m here because my fiancé was killed in a car accident last month and I’m having a really hard time 😞

Hello. It's very sad to hear about your loss.
The person I loved died suddenly over 2 years ago. I still remember how I felt when she was taken away from me. Just like it was yesterday...
I know there are no words to comfort you now, but... I am with you.

Hello, I am so sorry to hear about your tragic loss. I can't begin to imagine how painful the loss was for you. How have you been managing?

Thank you so much. 🙏🏻❤️ it’s been difficult. I’ve been talking to a therapist and I’ve joined several online support groups. I started a grief journal. I guess I’m doing the best I can. Some days are worse than others. I just miss him so much and I miss our life together. I feel so sad and lonesome and scared all the time. I think I’m still trying to process everything. It was such a traumatic day. It doesn’t seem real sometimes. Like a nightmare I can’t wake up from. Thank goodness for my daughter because if I didn’t have her to keep me going, I’m not sure what shape I’d be in. Today is my birthday so that’s bringing a lot of different emotions.

You're welcome. I am glad to hear that you have a therapist and a support group to help you navigate your feelings of grief. Grief journals are a great way to track where you are in the grieving. I can understand how some days are harder than other days. All you are feeling is 100 percent valid and understandable. The loss is tragic and unexpected, so it makes sense for it to feel unreal. I am glad to hear that you have your daughter to help you keep going. Oh, happy birthday, I can imagine that a special day like that would be bringing around all different feelings.

I am sorry to hear your birthday this year might be less joyful...
Yes, being responsible for a child (or two) in such a difficult time can make the difference. I remember my son talking to me on the phone (he's a very talkative boy) up to the point I was almost asleep from being tired and tears.
I know very personally most of the things you are writing about. Also, I've always been a movie person, and some movies also helped me to process my pain, loss and other feelings.
"Always" is a fable-like movie about the death of a beloved person. Actually, this was the last one we watched together with my fiancée. This was the day I showed her my poems, and she was the person to appreciate it. After losing her I watched "P.S. I love you" for the first time.
When I was deep in the mourning some people told me one of the worst things connected with passing away of a very close person is the lost future - all the things we planned to do together: going to the theatre, a trip to another town, eating dried fruit ice cream, seeing her in a colourful summer dress - but which will happen maybe not in this life...
I wrote a testimony about the beloved person I lost to a website for the people in grief. But it seems they never published it... That's OK. My fiancée is still alive in my memory and every day I am thankful for all those precious moments we had together...

I swear I replied to you but I can't see my message. How strange. I am glad you have support. I am sorry to hear about it being your birthday and I can understand how special days would be harder as you are grieving. If you see this and want to find time to chat, you are welcome to send me a message.
