Widows & Widowers Support Group
This community is dedicated to those who have lost a husband, wife, or partner. Anything is open for discussion here, with the hope that we can focus on grief, bereavement, life after loss, and continuing on after a great loss.
At this point Grief Pain is all powerful. At some point in the future does the power of loneliness supplant Grief Pain? If so, does it only happen with some people? What variables might apply? Gender? Age? Longevity of the bond? Depth of the love experienced? I have no answers to these questions, and don't know if there are any answers. The questions nag at me anyways.

grief is love turned inside out, the deeper and longer the love, the more grief is multiplied. more logorythmicly than arithmetically

Okay, I understand grief can be compounded depth and longevity of bond, but with time does loneliness assume a dominant role, and if so what variables have been applied to make it so.
nebby
im at 14 months,accepting the solitude,staggering under the enormous weight of lonliness wondering when grief and self pity diverge or coincide.
nebby
i cant compartmentalize my grief, it touches every aspect of life i hate wallowing in self pity, but find guilty comfort there
nebby
we have no past, we have no future, all we have is the cruel here and now
nebby
but in the end, thats all we have, hell and our beautiful memories

I know that not loneliness or anything else could ever replace Grief Pain, but with time does loneliness become a dominant force in one's life creating motivation for change. Does it happen for some people?
