The lesser talked about grief: grief over someone who is still alive

We all have been there. A relationship has ended with a person and that relationship is now dead. They are no longer visible in your life. No more memories to be made with them, no more conversations to be had, and no more laughter to be shared. We ache at their absence.

Regardless if this death was by choice, yours or theirs, we grieve. It may have been for the best for both parties to part ways...maybe it was for the best for only one them. It may have been a consequence of your own making. Nonetheless, we grieve.

I hope everyone here who is grieving a living person to give yourself a little kindness, and some space and acceptance to be sad. And, perhaps permission to be "ok" with the ending of this relationship and complete peace about it.
