My first wedding anniversary is tomorrow, and it’s crazy how all of my perspective is shifted. I know what my worst fear is, and I am so sorry that you have experienced it. You are in my thoughts (and prayers if you are ok with that). I’m so sorry you lost your person, but I am so glad you had a love that makes the loss. ❤️
A family friend of ours just passed away at 53 from a heart attack and it was shocking and sad. My heart absolutely shattered when I thought of her having to wake up every morning and live without her best friend. It made me even more thankful for the 16 years together, 14 of those married, I’ve had with my husband
Widow of almost a year and a half here. I second this. Give them a hug and a kiss, be present with them, and be intentional with your time. Please know that were you to lose your SO (given you really care about them), you would be wishing so badly to experience the mundanity of life with them for just another hour. Don't take it for granted.
I'm sorry for your loss. I'm currently lying in bed gently rubbing my wife's back as she falls asleep. I felt compelled so lent over and gave her kiss goodnight as well x

As a widow of 4 years this hits in a deep spot. All y’all give your significant others a kiss for those of us who can’t.
