    Good Morning!

    I lost my soul mate five months ago. We had been together for 14 years. We were each others whole world. We loved doing everything together. The only time we were really apart was when we were working.

    This is my first time posting and I am a little nervous.

    I’m truly sorry for your loss. Five months is still incredibly raw and the pain can make even breathing feel heavy and the world impossible to navigate. After 14 years of being each other’s entire world, their absence doesn’t just leave an empty space; it feels like half of you is missing. I know that pain deeply. Two years ago, I suddenly lost my partner of 28 years. We were inseparable, only apart for work, and did everything together. After she passed, the silence at home was overwhelming, and ordinary tasks like cooking, watching TV, or walking the dog, felt utterly meaningless without them. I was certain I’d never feel whole or normal again.
