It happened years ago but today, it’s sharper than ever.

Grief sucks.

Especially partner grief.

This is my third Christmas without him. I don't send cards any more or decorate the house. Some kindly people still send me greetings and the normalness of their messages are utterly crushing. How on earth do they think I'll have a "fabulous Christmas" or a "brilliant 2026"? #grief #partnerloss

It's one of those days when the silence is utterly deafening. #grief #partnerloss #bereavement

Still finding it so hard to engage with 'normal' people and their 'we' went here and 'we' did this and 'we' are going on holiday because 'we so need a break'. My whole life collapsed when my love died and I feel I have no common ground with them any more. #grief #partnerloss #widow

Just noticed that in my work day book I wrote that yesterday was 4th March 2023. Because I can't actually accept that time has carried on since I lost him. #grief #partnerloss #widowed

Some days in this grief game are unremittingly bleak and this is one of them. I have simply had enough of him not being here. #grief #widowed #partnerloss

This chimed strongly with me, especially ‘normal’ people's rose-tinted view of being alone. #grief #loneliness #partnerloss #widowed

I've now endured 1,000 days without him. And while I've learned to wear a mask around ‘normal’ people now, I still wake up every day with an ache in my heart and disbelief that this is my life now. #alone #grief #partnerloss

People keep confusing me with the person I was when he was here. Apparently I'm always busy and out all the time. So who is that person who sits on the sofa alone most nights? #grief #alone #widowed #partnerloss

Every day feels like a battle. Just organising simple outings or managing complicated projects, it's all so much harder without him. #grief #partnerloss #widowed

Drew this a while back and he always thought I made him look too hipster. But I like it anyway 🥰

Having couples to visit is difficult. Their easy chat about shared memories and plans, little in jokes... All so hard to witness once your person is gone. #grief #widowed #partnerloss

Time makes you stronger, but grief never gets easier. Valentine's Day makes me think of wry smiles, pumpkin with yogurt, hot chocolate, and kisses that make time stop. It's been five years since the first time I saw the sunrise with you next to me and I love you just as much. #grief #partnerloss

Currently working my through boxes of our stuff that were sent to storage two and half years ago when we thought we were embarking on an adventure to start a new life. Every single one, no matter how mundane the contents, is like a grenade set to go off in my heart. #grief #bereavement #partnerloss

The silence and emptiness are deafening and crushing without him here. #grief #widowed #partnerloss

Two and a half years ago today the light went out of my life. #grief #solstice #partnerloss #widowhood

Grief feels like wearing punishingly uncomfortable new shoes all the bloody time, while longing to kick them off and wriggle into your favourite comfy slippers. But someone has thrown those slippers away and you must trudge on in the painful shoes for ever. #grief #partnerloss #widowed #bereavement

Saw a post that said, "if you haven't lost your partner, look away". No shade to them, but I disagree.

PAY ATTENTION! This could be you at any time, without notice.

On 12 October 2023, I had no idea it would be me the very next day. Now it is.

We were a good team. He was the sunshine, I was the rain. Together we made rainbows; now everything is just grey. #grief #bereavement #partnerloss

New winner of the stupid things people say to grievers award: someone asked me yesterday what the advantages were of him being dead! ‘There must be some advantages. When my partner is away…’ #grief #alone #partnerloss

So tired of constantly having to be grateful to people for spending time with me, now that the person who actually wanted to be with me isn't here any more. #grief #partnerloss #widowed
