Went out with friends today they have asked me to meet up tomorrow  for lunch I've agreed to ,I know I should in my heart but my head says don't go without my wife but I know she is there with me how do people cope with with it I'm still finding it hard to do 

  • Andrew b,

    Well done for agreeing to do this.

    I've still to do the lunch with friends experience. I've had lunch with family and one of my own friends but none of the couples we socialised with yet. Even with family it was tough.

    Take care,

  • I also went friends last night lovely time I was sitting and talking  and then I started to cry it just came on for no reason I went and visited the crematorium this morning in the rain Broken heart

  • Andrew, it’s not easy to deal with as I am sure you know. I am four year into the loss of Adele, it still hurts, I don’t shy away from talking about her, I never labour the point, she , like your own dear wife had a profound effect on our lives and their beliefs and opinions which live on within us.   I do not know how your wife passed away, however it was , you were not responsible, Adele’s words to me were “Live your life”  I sure yours would be the same. It’s not moving on it’s living .
