recently I found out that my partner had died and that it looks like it was either a suicide or a cry for help that went wrong. i have so many strange emotions going on... i feel so so angry at him, his family for not seeing the signs and mostly for myself ( we had had an argument previously, since was partly sorted and we were going to meet up and talk at the end of the week). i feel that i cannot grieve him properly yet as i dont understand and cannot accept that it has happened yet. I keep thinking that he is going to come in or phone/text any moment. i was wondering if anyone else has been through a similar experience so that i can start to feel im not alone and that this may get better and im not always going to feel like this.

I have been waiting for the phone to ring with his daily call to the kids for weeks now and it never comes. I even had his cell phone shut off so the kids couldn't try and call him. But I admit I have called it a few times because I needed to hear the no longer in service message.
You are not alone and the grief comes after the shock starts to wear off and for me that took a couple of weeks to happen.
I am sorry for your loss and I know the pain of things being unresolved.
It has been two weeks since my husband died. I still wait for the phone to ring or for him to walk in the door.
There are always ambiguities in life. In looking at his phone contact list I am wondering if my husband loved me.
In the end we can't ever know everything about another person's life or what would have happened if.... Just take what you have and cherish it.
One thing you need to get in your head first -
It was not your fault in any way whatsoever.
If you can solidly get that processed first, it will make dealing with all the rest of the feelings and questions a whole lot easier.
It is OK for a while to be in denial - it is not always a bad thing. And you are not completely in denial. You acknowledge he has died, and even how he died.
Some people still think they are not dead!!
So you are OK, You're not loosing your mind. Just take one day at a time.
I want to be able to understand why he left but its sooo hard because what we had and the love that we shared was rare. And that makes it difficult.
