But I miss the way she would cling to me in her sleep because that is where she felt the absolute safest. She knew nothing could ever happen to her while she was in my arms at night and she held me in the warm needing way. That kind of touch has a strong connection to my emotional happiness and finding a replacement for that has been hard.


JWS, I understand completely. I went through a few days where I was missing W's presence in bed at night incredibly. At times the loneliness felt overwhelming and like getting punched in the guts by Mike Tyson. Somehow, it has faded into a dull roar.

For pisces9. I think that JWS and I are on a similar page. If I needed some help with, you know, I can get a girlfriend with a last name of .jpg. I will still go to sleep in an empty bed. I miss throwing my big bear arm over my W and just holding her as we fall asleep and the only ways that I can think of to duplicate that come perilously close to a path I'm not ready to walk.
