My wife passed away

Sorry to hear that. It’s true, your grief goes on when the support slacks off. I understand, though not due to a loss…

Six months in not a long while. You will never forget totally. As foe "supportive" friends - welcome to death and divorce, my friends. They have their own lives, yes'.Life is for the living.

Don't mourn Mother's Day or her birthday unduly. My own mother died 38 years ago in her sleep right after Mother's Day. I miss her to this day - but I remember her that day and her June birthday. I remember the good times, never the bad. You should do the same.

Try a support group. They went through what you are doing now, You may find a couple of new friends.

happy to char anytime. I imagine I'd be a ship without a rudder if my wife passed.

{@andyhe] sorry to here this it is an awful time i know from when my dad passed in 2014 i am sad to say it is hard for a while after as you rightly say with all the memories and the good times around you , if you do have support from family or friends somebody to be there when you are feeliing at your lowest . i do promise it does get better in time just try and keep your chin up not easy i do admit at this present moment

I'm genuinely sorry for your loss man.

I'm so sorry for your loss...

that is rough, I was 43 when it happened to me, it is always hard and something will always remind you of her, but it will also get better as you get through it, since it is not something ever to get over and all in your own time, do not let anyone set a time table on your grief.

My wife passed away in September.... I know exactly how you feel... Sincere condolences to u and your family

Hugs
