Members Popular Post DWS Posted March 26, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 I thought I'd open a thread to share the innocent, small things that we are missing without our spouses and partners being here. There are so many things that we often take for granted during intimate relationships and with their absence, the blatancy of those sweet moments together become obvious. For example, this morning, a squirrel was sitting on my shed roof happily nibbling on a bagel that a neighbour must have tossed out. The sweet innocence of this animal had me mesmerized and then, as loss so often does, I started to cry thinking about how intrigued my partner Tom would have found this moment standing together watching....and he'd no doubt need to grab his fancy schmancy camera to get a good photo. What are you missing? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm stumbling upon them daily. Yesterday, my niece's teenaged daughter kindly shared some chocolate coconut cookies that she had proudly baked for my sister's birthday. Little did anyone know that these cookies...we call them "blobs"....was one of Tom's greatest pleasures at baking at Christmas time. I sobbed all the way home. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Popular Post Jen H Posted March 26, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 What I miss the most is sharing with him my feelings, thoughts, laughter, accomplishments, struggles, etc. Everyone else doesn't seem to care. There is always something going on that I miss sharing with him. Right now it's watching Match Madness.

Members Popular Post Canadagirl81 Posted March 26, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 Cooking for him, watching him enjoy it. Road trips. Singing our silly, made up songs. Cuddling watching documentaries. Putting lotion on his feet. Our daily walks down to the water. Our millions of little inside jokes. Him bringing me tea and toast in bed. All his noises. His voice. His eyes. His skin. His hands. His lips. His smell. Running my fingers through his hair. His laugh and me laughing with him. His silly dance. Him playing a composition on his guitar that he's been fiddling with for many years, I think he played it mostly out of comfort...and neither one of us ever recorded it which will baffle me forever. I wish I had recorded him playing it...I'd hear him from the other room playing it softly. Oh how I wish I could hear it just one more time. There are a million things I miss.....everything is so quiet now. 3 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Popular Post widower2 Posted March 28, 2022 Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Very much miss the inside jokes, which now are only funny to me (if that). Her laugh. Her being the slowest eater in the history of the world. (And thinking that the most important part about eating a meal is talking. IT IS NOT) Her getting mad when I would tease her in obvious silly ways. Her expressions and sometimes funny pronunciations of words. Her obsession with losing something of almost no value (like a paper clip) and turning the house upside down to look for it. Her inability to say good-bye at the end of a phone conversation. I could go on..... I miss that lunatic. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Popular Post KayC Posted March 28, 2022 Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 I have no inside jokes with anyone now, excepting my kids and rarely get to talk with them.

Not sure I'd ever told him about that before. 6 hours ago, widower2 said: Her expressions and sometimes funny pronunciations of words.

I love reading all the unique precious little things only appreciated by a soulmate! I'm sure everyone misses even the imperfections and annoyances of our special person as well. He would never get loud during our arguments. He had this passive aggressive regular calm voice during arguments that would drive me crazy. Sometimes ending with this little chuckle that really set me off. Also when he was mostly bed bound if I wasn't in the bedroom with him, he would ask me over and over again what I was doing. After awhile it would really get on my nerves. What I wouldn't give to hear those words again. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Popular Post foreverhis Posted March 28, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 There are too many to list here, so I'll just choose one. John had the most annoying habit of being able to make me laugh when I was irked about something. I'd be in a mood, irritated with something (in 35 years, that included him at times). I'd be reveling in it and he would say something so silly or funny or clever that I'd laugh and laugh. Then I'd look at him and say, "You just ruined a perfectly good snit!" And he would grin his "aw shucks" grin and say, "I know." I have no one to help me out of my upsets, except when I have my sweet friend Raleigh staying by my side. That little furry girl could make the angriest, saddest person smile. They wouldn't be able to help themselves. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Popular Post Canadagirl81 Posted March 28, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 @foreverhis I smiled so big reading your reply. Glenn would do the same. He had the uncanny ability of pulling me out of whatever funk I was in. He also LOVED getting a reaction out of me by saying something he thought was shocking because he always said he adored my reactions. Most of the time I just played them off to be overly dramatic reactions because I knew he loved it. Raleigh sounds adorable.... <3 This is so hard.

Just hearing the stories of the things that bind us to our special someones is heartwarming. So much love here. One of the little things that I miss happened this evening. I never thought of myself as a Trekkie but Tom brought that out in me as he was a big Star Trek fan. When I would watch the original series, I would send him a text that the Gorn was after Kirk again or "Spock and two red shirts landed on a strange planet"...to which he'd reply "that's not good". That was purely our simple fun time. I didn't get to have that pleasure this evening. I do have the special memory. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Popular Post foreverhis Posted March 29, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Here's another. John was really smart, talented, caring, a protector, and a kind of Renaissance man. He could be serious, but he had such a silly side. Our granddaughter says that the reason she's got "a silly gene" is because of her grandpa. She's not wrong. With that in mind, picture this if you will: A 6 foot tall, broad shouldered man doing a perfect imitation of Robin Williams’ character in The Birdcage and "the celebration of the dance." The first time he did it, we had just watched the movie the day before and were chuckling over something. He suddenly burst into the character and did the scene. I quite literally doubled over I was laughing so hard. We had so many little "couple things" that only we understood. Sometimes all it took was a raised eyebrow and a gesture from across the room and I'd be smiling and even giggling like a school girl. I miss the small, simple pleasure of those moments. We all miss the silly and funny things, small and large, that defined a side of him that might seem unexpected. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Popular Post Canadagirl81 Posted April 3, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Sunday's are especially hard. It was our favourite day. Breakfast sandwiches, pancakes or french toast. A hike or we would drive somewhere new and take pictures. I just loved this day with him. I loved every day with him. I'm really struggling right now. I did not bad for most of the day but then these overwhelming empty feelings just started drowning me. What is the point of anything anymore? Truly? I have my first therapist appointment in the morning so I'm hoping she can shed some new perspective here but man.... life is so completely hollow now. I try to be optimistic and shift my perspective to grateful and I AM! I so am for all the wonderful moments I got to spend with Glenn but I JUST WANT THEM AGAIN. I want him here and nothing is ever going to make anything feel okay. I'm angry. I'm frustrated. I'm disillusioned with what life even is now. I don't want this reality anymore, I don't want this consciousness or these feelings. I'm exhausted. 3 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Popular Post steveb Posted April 3, 2022 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Canadagirl81, I’m so sorry for the pain you are going through. Your loss is still so very fresh. I felt the same early on also. I’ve learned to manage my grief over time. And time is what you need to process the grief. Seek out whatever resource you need to help you deal with the pain. I leaned heavily on my family. Thank God they were there for me. You are not alone here. We all understand what you are going through. Hugs and prayers coming your way … Steve 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd get great deals on things like steaks which expired that day so we'd have to cook them that night (oh darn). Then we'd get breakfast burritos at the nearby McD's and come home, unpack the groceries, and have the burritos with coffee and read the Sunday paper (I so pity younger generations who will never get the joy of reading a paper). I grabbed the sports section and coupons, she had everything else.

Members Popular Post DWS Posted April 4, 2022 Author Members Popular Post Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 @Canadagirl81I know exactly how you're feeling about channeling this through your music. Music has always been my life...my constant friend. I worked weekends as a nightclub DJ for 25 years and I have a wide array of records, CDs and mp3s at my fingertips....but I can't bear to listen to any of it. So much of it was the musical background of my time with Tom. Earlier this evening, I had someone give me a thumbs up on a music mix that I have online. It's been a long time since that has happened. I don't get a lot of those because I'm terrible at promoting them but it gave me the idea that maybe that's where I could channel some of this grief...into a special mix of all of the tunes that hold so much meaning over these last four years with him. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have motivation to do ANYTHING for quite some time afterwards. But, ironically, eventually, my songwriting really took off later on, with (surprise) a lot of the material being about her in various ways....a lot about regret and pain, but also about the joy of knowing her and being lucky to have had her in my life.

Cleaning house, new carpet and furniture ect. My health, excecise and A1C. My daughter just doesn't understand how significant these changes are for her and I. He is so proud. I just wish I could hear him say that. I miss our phone calls home from work. I miss his guidance and opinion about things I have to make decisions about. I laugh about how I don't hear the work zinc anymore.... folks it is called a sink. All the daily annoyances. I miss my friend and companion.
