Widower's Club

Gained membership into the club last Saturday at 8:10AM.

Throwing a party today. Bunch of people coming to the farm today. Spreading ashes. It is kinda ****ed up because we came out here to get away from people, yet today what I need is people around me, but I'm also *REALLY* looking forward to them all going away.

We weren't Christian. In neither of our estimation (hers and mine) is she in "a better place", "teaching kids in heaven", or "fulfilling God's plan". Not to take anything away from you all who believe. That isn't even remotely my intent. Just thinking about the platitudes I've heard so far and how unhelpful the majority of them are. Her place was here, with me, with our dogs, with our animals. I had 30-40 years left with her. She is not where she belongs.

----

Best thing I ever did was give her a gigantic leatherbound journal for our first anniversary. I now have the past 15 years of her innermost thoughts, her drawings, her struggles, and her victories all at my fingertips.

Biggest takeaway so far is that I just need to tread water for the next 6 months. No big decisions, no moving, no ending the lives of all my pets and then squaring myself away.

It has been a week and it has gotten "easier" to bear which is just code words for "just being in your house isn't gonna make you lose your shit"... it means that you get used to being in the house UNTIL you see something that brings up a specific memory or someone says something that touches on one of your inside secrets or struggles as a couple. Then you lose it all over again. Then, and only then, does your brain get the chance to prepare itself for the next time it sees or hears that specific reference.

---

Life is short, it is beautiful... but it is also ****ing horseshit. The only actual and truly wonderful part of mine is gone.

/don't worry about condolences for me or the like... take that energy and put it towards that person you married. Get up from your desk, find them, and squeeze the **** out of them instead.

That’s rough knowing you have to go through this. No words can really replace her, and while you might not believe, I will still pray for you as the days pass by.

She certainly sounded like a wonderful person. Carrying on will be hard, but honor her legacy.

Much love Bro.

Sry to hear that. I know you said you don't want condolences and I will respect that. But even though you're not Christian, I'll pray for you anyway. My wife is my best friend and I don't know how I'd deal with that. I can't even imagine what you're going through.

Mind if I ask what happened? She wasn't that old. If that's too personal and you don't want to answer, that's okay and I understand.

Oh man.

I'm sorry.

I know how you feel. Club member since 2013.

It's rough. Hang in there, and go at your own pace. Everybody else can **** off. You take care of YOU, the rest can wait.

I'm sorry, brother.

That great amount of deep pain you feel is equal to that great amount of deep love you gave. It VALIDATES it beyond measure.

It's terribly humbling to me to think some never get to experience that. Just like not getting to experience a full life.

You are and were a blessed man.

May you find the strength to lean on the Lord. He knows exactly how you feel.

You might reach out to Endzoner if you need someone to talk to.

Hang in there, man.

I have nothing to add to what Stevie said.

Sorry for your loss.
