My Ruby Wedding

life can be pretty shitty horrible at times can't it. Somtimes all we can do is grit our teeth and hope the day passes quickly. Watch a DVD, go for a walk or have a cry and eat chocolate. I hope tomorrow is a better day.

Hugs and

Starley I think you may be right. I think I should feel something an I really don't. Maybe I am used to being on my own now.

Still all seems rather sad. We were together since I was 13.

(((Hugs)))

Since you don't feel anything, though, maybe you are "moving on." Perhaps you were expecting to feel something and are surprised that you don't? Maybe you think you "should" feel something because "It was (your) wedding day." But feelings or the lack of them can't be helped. And it's probably good if you don't care anymore.

I would treat myself to something special, anyway, but that's just me.

Oh well, I've been through the 'this time 40 years ago we were in the registry offce' etc etc.
I feel quite strange about it, sort of nothing. Maybe I am finally moving on.
She is 17 years younger than him. He retires in a year or two. I wonder how things will pan out for him then.
Hey how.
Thank you all for your kind thoughts.

Me too, Ruby a fortnight ago, replaced by younger model 11 years ago - still waiting for divorce to be finalised!! Like others have said treat yourself to something nice.

I would have celebrated my Golden anniversary at the end of last year. However my one-time DH moved on many years ago and has moved a couple of more times since. I still felt sad for what we had and hoped that he remembered too. Sending (((hugs))) and for you.

I am sorry to read this, it is your wedding day anniversary. Have you family or friend you can phone and talk to. It maybe it is not forgotten but others are not sure what to do so if you say nothing they will take a lead from you.

My sister was widowed just before her Ruby anniversay and was dreading it for weeks, in the end we had a nice meal together. Do try and tell someone, sending a virtual hug.

Kaycee I'm sorry its a bad day for you.

Good advice silverlining, do something nice and extravagant for yourself Kacee, you are worth it.

Sorry that you are sad today. It must be hard and most people you know will probably not be awAre of the date and what it means to you.
Dont stay home alone , ring a friend or family and suggest meeting up or do something nice for yourself and try not to spend too much time thinking about things.

Oh Kacee ..... what a sad day for you as you are still grieving for your lost love.
If DH left you for someone younger....he wasn't worth it!
I wish you could find happiness again.
Hugs and love.
