Tender,
I wish I had something to offer you, some soothing words, some helpful insight, but better writers have already expressed whatever can be said. Just know that I feel your ache inside and feel so very sad for you. I lost someone who meant a lot to me, different circumstances but the pain was similar, I think, to how you feel. Have you ever read Ambiguous Loss by Pauline Boss? She is the only one I know of who's really addressed that aspect of unresolved loss. Perhaps it might comfort you. I wish I could do better. At least, you are right in that here, on this board, you will find people who understand and validate your loss of a profoundly important relationship. We will never tell you, "get over it." We know you will when you're ready and not before. It takes as much time as it takes. And please just post as many times as you need to. We will always be here waiting to hear from you.
Love, Lucie (((((((((((10der))))))))))))
