First of all, if this has happened to you,have my sympathy,,..........................second,it's definitely time,and also you gat to go out,hang with friends,stay busy doing stuff I guess! Good luck!

seek jesus, he is the only one who can heal you from the worst of pains , find a healing room event at a local church, and let him speak to you, not only will your heart be restored but it will be stronger and more capable of handling the problems of this world, ask and you shall recieve, him knowing what you arelready need even before you ask

Please accept my condolences on your loss.

Try not isolate. Seek the comfort and caring of friends and family. Talk about your feelings and your loss, allow yourself to grieve, seek the assistance of a counselor if it becomes overwhelming. Best wishes on your journey to a happier heart.

I am so sorry for your loss. You have my deepest sympathies. Keep your loved one close to your heart and they will never be truly gone. Keep them alive in your memories and seek comfort in the good times that you had. Grieve as long as you need to and never listen to anyone who tells you that it's time to move on or get over it. Cry when you're sad, laugh when you're happy and get angry if you have to.
Take comfort in life's little pleasures and lean on those people who care about you.

Gently sweetly Psalms 91, my hope is that you've enjoyed much of the time you did have, honor and cherish your memories. Start each day with grace and be sure to take care with yourself. Practice patience and take your time

time is the best healer

I agree :) and you need to reflect for some time, eventually you'll move on.

This is a deeply painful and difficult issue. The subject invokes many issues we struggle with as humans beings. The deep emotion I feel, compels me to take the time to respond albeit your post was months ago. The issues of lost intimacy ( into me see), loneliness and loss are difficult and oh so human. Also how to cope with the pain...I will attempt to speak to the pain induced by loss and the subject of loneliness. Most never look at the purpose in loneliness. Loneliness begins at birth and continues our whole life. Grade school, High school,in our families.Also in crowds, maybe even and often in marriage and devorice. What I have learned is that without the feeling of loneliness, We would never spend time being just with the Lord. And so I have excepted that when I'm alone it's my time with The lord for him to speak truth to me. This is a very good thing but does little to diminish the pain of loss. Loss of intimacy, touch, love, and joy. For it is by us humans on the earth that these things are ministered. OUR HANDS. We are a world broken,,touch deprived, lacking love. Give and it will be given...I love you dude. So as I try to fill the hole in your heart, the hope is that it will prime the pump, so that you can give love. This Heals. Jesus ministered love after the painful death of his friend John the baptist-er.
Lastly She is in the arms of the great love giver. You have shared her with the lord to love. Or actually he shared her with you. He has seen fit to leave you here to love on others with the compassion the pain has produced..Albeit I am always in danger of a false balance in the rational explanation (blah) there by lacking to communicate to the emotional. I hope this is not what is being sensed. My love and deep sense of compassion to you in your loss I deeply feel and carry this hurtful burden with you. May the God of all good things bless and heal your broken heart. Love in Christ John

think something that can easily move on... forget things that makes you sad but focus on things especially on your families. friends and works...it might help to forget

time depends.. how long..but its the good thing....

You don't.

by giving yourself time.
by being glad you found such a great love. by cherishing the monents, knowing all that will live on in your heart.
if you believe in God, by seeking divine comfort through your faith.
by allowing yourself the time to grieve, and knowing that someone who loved you so deeply wouldn't want you to live in sadness.
sending a heartfelt wish and prayer that you find comfort and each day brings you healing.

I have nothing. Listen to Ana and Blondey. I think a broken heart is one of the heaviest burdens we bear as humans.

You can never mend a broken heart ....If the pain is too deep there is a chance the right person will come along and find all the pi�ces and put It back together and make It whole again....but until then even If It heals It will always have cracks in it.....but as i said the right person can fix that and make all the pain go away

I agree with unknown ... time will heal but not all ... and you ...yourself have to heal for another to come into your life... so you do not make them feel terrible or feel pity for you ... you do not want that... you want someone different so as not to be a reminder so much of your wife ... not saying can't have some qoulities but you do not want to compare the two women ... I am sure that your going through a very ruff time now ... but they say patience can help ... take your self out more to functions where women might go ... and you may find some one right for you ...

Just got to move on mate and live your life again? Don't want to sound bad, but what would that other person be doing if it was the other way around? Would you want them to be unhappy? Don't think you would and that's what they would want for you too, to be happy once again. Happened to my grandad before and once he got in the swing of things again, there was no stopping him, even in his 80's! I wish you all the best, ok?

It happened to me after more than 20 years. Only time helps. Just be patient, live one day at the time and you will feel strong again.
One morning you will feel ready to open up your heart and your mind. The problem is... many people never experienced a deep closeness and want to substitute relationship with shallow easy come easy go type of companionship, but you will recognize those easily and learn how to deal with them.
I got a bit tired of dealing with those looking for no strings attached sex based relationships, but even if the majority is just fine with it, that doesn't mean ALL (wo)men are the same. So, there is always a chance there is someone not so shallow out there, right?
To be honest, I gave up looking. If it happens - it will happen. If not, I'll live without love and without a broken heart. That's how I see it, but things change. Maybe I'll see it differently in future. Who knows...? Perhaps you will be lucky. You can't know that. Nobody can. So,chin up and keep going...one day at the time...

I'm sorry for you loss. Just keep moving on and surround yurself with positive people. Time will heal, insyaAllah.

Aww...please accept my deep condolences for your lost .:'(
But now, you are on mingle2, that's meaning you are ready to start a big action to catch your own happiness in the future.. also maybe it's the perfect time for you to thinking about "move on"., because as you know, no matter what happened, life still goes on.
But I know that maybe it's not easy for you to do it, but you have to believe that time will heals all your pains, slowly but sure..
Just try to be happy / too much sadness is not good for you, then open your heart once again and dont lose hope of everything, because miracle only happens to one who believe it.
Finally good luck on your search.
