I had grief counselling on Friday . We had a big talk about validation . His family minimise my importance in his life even though we were together 15 years and engaged . They don’t seem to regard me as important due to not being married . This played on my mind all weekend . I
I hate the weekends they are so lonely without him . The weather was good and he would have been in great form doing all his outdoor jobs . I haven’t been out socially since he died . Thank good for TV and my daughter . I’m up to date with all the trending shows lol .
Why are the weekends so long without them . I think about him all weekend more probably than during the week . I’m back at night classes training to be a beautician so I can earn some extra money . I’m really struggling financially since he died . He halved all the bills with me now I have to find the money elsewhere . It’s really hard. He left no will so I got nothing , Life is hard without him .
