The pain of someone dying is hard, especially if a loved one. With that, in time it doesn't necessarily get easier...but easier to cope and manage the feelings that do occur.

"Does the pain of someone dying ever get easier?" It gets easier to live with, and you learn to accept it, maybe even grow from it, but that pain will never go away, it will always be with you. For me, when i recently lost my best friend to suicide, i knew i would never get over it. But with every day i choose to honor his memory by living my life, and even though it still hurts just as much when i think about it, the pain is slowly becoming more bearable. I don't mind carrying the pain with me; it reminds me that i once cared very much for a close friend who had a lasting impact on my life, and to me that makes it worth it.

"As far as I can see, grief will never truly end. It may become softer over time, more gentle, and some days will feel sharp, but grief will last as long as love does- forever. It's simply the way the absence of your love one manifests in your heart. A deep longing, accompanied by the deepest love." - Scribbles and Crumbs

Yes and no. At first its going to be very hard. But over a year or so there is something that will remind you of them and you will be sad but it won't be as bad as the first time. You will be happy and you will live a happy life.

with time it takes a while. Losing someone makes you feel like you've lost part of yourself and just know they will become your guardian angel

I think in all honesty, the pain only gets worse. You miss them more as time goes on, not less. I let it affect me less because I am familiar with the loss of that person, and I have taken time to mourn them in private. Preparation and the work of mourning do wonders to help a person move on. But in my experience none of the losses hurt less

It's always hard when you lose a loved one. It hurts, sometimes one can feel extremely lost. Everyone grieves differently, and also heal differently. I honestly can't say if the pain will ever go away. At some point in time you'll heal, whether months or years after. However that loved one memories will always be with you, and so it will sometimes hurt to think of them. To remember that they're no longer with you. But it's also important to remember that they're somewhat in a better place. I hope. All one can do is take care while grieving. Everyone grieve differently. To answer your question. The pain will eventually fades. But it'll always be there. However over a period of time, you'll gradually feel better upon healing. Please do take care! Wish you all the best. And if you lost a loved one, my condolences.

Yes. Make a list of all the things you appreciate about them, and what all you learned from them, and appreciate their essence they gave you. Over time, you will realize they might not physically be there, but, they are very much in how you think, and how you behave, and how you talk, sing, and walk.

Yes, it does eventually, at first it may be hard and shocking and very scary, but at time comes you will find peace eventually, and even though it will still hurt a tiny bit, it won't hurt as much, so it does get easier

Yes. I know death isn't the best thing to know has occurred in your life, but death is inevitable and you will always have it, we are not permanent on living on the Earth, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't make it feel as close to permanent as ever. Death has collateral beauty in it and it's simple the circle of life and the person will always be close to you in your heart, no matter what.
