Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I am having a really hard time getting on with life. Maybe it was the kind of relationship we had. If we werent at work, we were together. When we were at work, we couldnt wait to get home to be together. We really liked each other. For 35 years we were 1. That bothers me a lot. After almost 4 years I shouldnt be stuck in this place. It is almost like I am emotionally & mentally paralyzed. Over the years family & friends have been drifting off. I seem to be getting more isolated, as well. I just feel so lost.

I have 2 wonderful husbands to grieve for, and I do, but that doesn't stop me from wanting a new relationship. I feel it's like having kids, or even pets to love. Just because you still have love for them when they die doesn't mean you can't open your heart to another. It's wonderful to make new memories while keeping the old.

I feel for you, and having been there myself many times can empathise. However, I can’t really identify completely with you. I have loved deeply several times in my life losing in this order, fiancé, father, mother, husband and finally, my very best friend Bonnie just two years ago. I remember them all with great love and fond memories but never would describe myself as still grieving for them. We owe it to ourselves to move ahead with our lives and cherish even more those loved ones we still have around us. I immerse myself in things I have always enjoyed and also in new ventures...like this Agnostics site for instance. When I think of the people I loved and lost it is with only happy memories and a heart full of love for the great times past. I try however to live in the present and even look forward to making new friends and having new experiences with my children and grandchildren. When my thoughts return to lost loves and things past, they are wonderful but fleeting memories.
