I'M THINKING THIS MIGHT BE MY LAST POST. Im just being polite.

Hi all, 

I can empathise with all the posts so far. Its 20months now since losing my sweet Anne. The denial and the  guilt have been worked through although I experienced very little anger. What I'm left with now is that massive void, that massive vacuum inside that can never be filled and never will be. Its like I've become only half a person. I fill the days with essential work and chores only. Ive no interest any more in my old hobbies and interests. These days I escape from my life reading books and watching TV plus recieving and sending small talk on social media sites until blessed sleep takes me completely away from this world at night. Some days are more tolerable than others and yes I can laugh when the occasion tickles me. After 50yrs married to my soul mate I cant see anything changing and I dont think I want it to. To 'move on ' as they say would devalue the memory of my sweet heart and I cant let that happen. Even at 75yrs and to my surprise and irritation I was hit upon on line by a 77yr old single woman who, without going into details, made  it plain she wanted some kind of relationship. YUCK! That will never happen. It took me ages of polite communication to try and get this message across but sadly in the end I had to tell her straight then blocked any further messages from her. Anyway enough of this!  I basically came into let you all know I'm still around Reading your posts and I'll pop in again as appropriate. Love to all.
