just found out half an hour ago my ex died. it's been harder for me now, a friend of his reached out saying "hey, I know you guy's are ex's but I believe you have the right since he still loves you."
I don't know how to deal with grief like this. I am completely broken.
I spent my day today, happy with new people. I genuinely thought I was healing. but.. it seems like I wasn't.

what part is hitting you the hardest right now… the loss itself, or the fact that he still loved you when he passed?
both.. it's a complicated grief.
i’m so sorry you’re going through this.
i lost someone i used to love too and it messed me up in a way i didn’t expect. it’s like the past and present crash into each other all at once, and suddenly everything feels raw again
Amiee, I am so so sorry. That kind of complicated greif is so so hard. You feeling broken down by this does not take away from the healing you were doing.
Healing doesn't mean you stop caring for someone. Healing doesn't mean that there wasn't hope that thier would be more closure between you some day.
you are aloud to be upset with someone and to grieve them and to love them. Even if you knew this was going to be an ending you can still grieve the chapters you might have hoped to have in each other's lives in the future.
My heart is with you. I hope you can be with all the contradictions that are present and make space for them all
Damn. Is he the ex you went NC for?
yeah. I thought it'd help, it didn't.
this honestly terrible, i'm so sorry my love x
My condolences ❤️🫂
