It was 2 years and a half ago when God had taken him away from me. A loss where everybody weren't warned, a sudden loss to be exact. Until now, I can't help but remember the things that we do together, sing the songs that we both like and dream of those things that we planned of doing together. Well, this post doesn't really ask for anything or needs an answer. This is just an outlet, I miss him suddenly. The truth is, I miss him every second of my life. :(

Aww, I am sorry to hear of your loss... I guess unless we are to go through the same thing ourselves then not one of us here could understand the pain that you go through, every day. A sudden loss, where there is no warning at all must be something quite unbearable. This site is a great place to come and vent or just release those emotions that are built up deep inside of you.

Your close friends probably say that, to try and console you, and it is probably the only thing that can say. I hope that you can find some kind of release through this site, is has certainly helped me in my hours of need. You will find a lot of great friends here, and people who you can talk to through discussions, trust me on that one. I have made some great friends here. Point is there is no bias here, so whatever advice you need, or however you feel and you just want to talk, you can be assured to know that you will get support. Take Care

attente, I hope that you will remember and realize that you have got to move on like how the earth moves on with time where the sun will continue to rise from the east and sets in the west with every passing day. Everything does not stop and will never cease even if your dearly love had departed. So, accept it and grieve all you want but at the end of the day you need to realize that there's a life and someone out there who will love you just the same if not, even more. Take care and have a nice day.

I'm so sorry for your loss.. can understand how much you must have miss him. Sometimes, in life things happen beyond us, beyond reason, and we wish that we can turn back time to relive those precious moments. It's surely not easy for you to go through it, but with time, the pain will ebb away. Take care, attente..

Hi zed. Thank you again! Of course with the help of my friends here as well as my mylot friends, I able to enjoy life without him. Not without him exactly as I he's just here in my heart, he dwells in my heart. And he will be there forever, always. With that, he will be loved and remembered always. When that God's time comes, meeting the new guy, the first guy would still be in my heart. But he will just make some space for the new guy or maybe my heart's capacity will increase right? Hhahaha! Am I making sense here? lols. thanks zed! hehe. :)

Was this your husband? What a great loss for you! I am sorry to hear of your loss. As time passes it does get alittle easier but not much. It is natural to miss a loved one, especially someone that filled a great portion of ones life. I hope that you are able to find things that interest you and friends who care who will help make this void in your life easier to bare.

I am sorry for your loss it has to be hard to deal with this on a daily basis. However, look at it this way a part of you has been gained. When we pass and leave loved ones behind we would hope that we are remembered for all the good things and not the negative. You said it yourself on your posted discussions. You are finding yourself remembering all the songs you both sang and all the wonderful things you did together so in a sense a part of you is remembering the good things and I think that is great. You will forever keep this person alive in your mind, heart and soul and this is a wonderful thing. It is sad to lose a loved one, but it is especially sad to not remember the great things about a loved one and you are doing just that. So although it may bring tears to you when you are recalling, I am sure you chuckle and laugh out of know where each time the wonderful memories are re-lived.

Absolutely, the world goes on no matter what and or how we are feeling. It still doesn't make us feel better or great. But you are doing the right things, you are keeping him alive in your heart. Where no matter how many more blessings, happiness and or loves in have in your family. He will always have that special place in your heart. You are still grieving, and that is okay. There is absolutely no time limit as to when the grieving stops. A love that strong, you may never completely stop grieving. That's okay too... One day and only God knows when that day will be, that you will notice you are no longer grieving. That is okay! So as long as there is no guilt. This person that has left will not like to know that you have stopped the world. He wants you to be happy, and that is a good thing. So take all the time you need, as you and only you know when it is time to stop grieving. It is also absolutely okay that you keep him alive within your heart, mind and soul. Good luck to you, I will say a prayer for you tonight and pray that you continue to be blessed as the special caring person that you are.

I can imagine your feeling. I have learned a text about love between two old couples when I was at college. when alive, the old man do gave a light kiss on his wife's forehead. If without his kiss, the old woman would not get to sleep. Unfortunately, he was gone finally. Then his kiss was also gone. You can imagine how was the rest life of the poor old woman. So impressive a story. I have always being moved. Hope all the lovers in the world will live happily for ever.

Hi sirzhang! First and foremost, thanks for the add my friend. Your picture is funny. You're from china right? that guy on your picture, sinchan, is very famous here in our country.. He, being so silly, makes millions of people laugh through his stupid actions. I miss watching that series. Well, that was 10 years ago.. :) Anyways, thank you for the story.. It really is a touching story. But I think that hurts more since they are married and the old woman is used to his kisses. Hmmm. or I think, it's better this way, we're on the same shoes since pain is beyond measurable.. :) well, I'm still young. Life has still lots to offer! be blessed! :)

Cheer up. he's just around..up there watching over you!

with the kind of coping you have --you are already into the healing process and later on be happy enough to accept the fact...the reality that he's already gone (physically) but will always remain in your heart! stay happy as he will be happy too!

I understand this..My loss is a little different, a lifelong friend (and ex boyfriend) killed himself 4 years ago without explanation...He had asperger's-but I don't think that was a factor. I miss calling him and talking about anything and everything. I feel like a part of me was lost with him also.

Sorry to hear that rachelle. Even if he's just an ex, I know it hurts. You have lots of memories with him.. And I know you miss the things that you both do. I feel the same. But we have to accept though. God has better plans. thanks rachel! :) Aspenger is something like autism right? What differs him from others? Not familiar with it. hehe. be blessed! :)

I'm a day late, hehe. thanks hex, I feel better now actually. Yes, I always consider that. I know God has better plans for me. I know in His time. I'll meet a new guy who will love me as much or even more as the first guy did. I believe in God and I believe in His plans, everything is so perfect. So instead of blaming him, like people do, I have to thank Him for lending me that guy even for a short time. At least that made me happy. thank you God. and thank you friends. thank you hex! Hugs, attente

Sorry you are feeling this pain. It most likely will never go away. It will dull at times. But mostly each day you will think of him. I think its especially tough when there are other things hard. You will feel more sadness.

Yes ladygator, it's really hard to accept that he's gone. But as they say, time is a good healer. and I believe in that. I don't have to forget him or get over him. I just have to accept that God had taken him away, he isn't beside me, but he's in my heart. always. be blessed lady! :)

DUn be too sad,, U need to move on in life.. ANd he's not entirely gone because he's still living in u, forever.. HE's right there for u, whenever u think of him.. Be it happy moments or sad moments, he's always right in u, sharing it ^_^ IT's better to have u mentally be your side, rather than somone physically there, but their heart is not with u ^_^ Cherish those precious moments, and learn to move on ^_^

Thank you kun! :) I agree, have to move on. Of course he won't be forgotten, he's in my heart, always. I have to be happy, at least once in my life I had him who made me happy sooooo much! Another thing, I agree with "It's better to have him mentally than having him beside me yet doesn't love me".. The latter hurts more I suppose. be blessed kun! :)

I feel your sadness and I am very sorry for your loss. He is with you each and every day I’m sure because love cannot ever die. You have the beautiful memories. Don’t try hard to get over this because the loss of someone we love is not something that we will get over with time but it is something that we just learn to live with every day and when you miss him so much it hurts allow yourself to feel his spirit near you and relive those memories. I hope you feel better soon and that you will smile again.

I can feel what you feel. Remember one thing always, its only his body which is lost, not his soul. He still lives on in your heart...
