These kind of "anniversary" days do have a tendency to really suck! Do take heart in the fact, though, that eventually this date will go by, without you even realizing it. Especially with the support and encouragement you're getting from your H.
For some strange reason, I think just to torture myself, I used to have the "bomb date" programed in to the calendar on my cell phone. So, every year when that day would come around, or if I were to view the whole calendar, I would see it, and get those ugly old feelings back again. Fortunately, when I got a new phone and switched the memory card, the dates didn't transfer over. So now, after 5 or 6 years (however long it's been!), I really couldn't tell you for sure what date it happened!
Guess that I could go look up some of my old posts and find it, but nah, don't think I want to go there!!
Anyway, know that soon this will pass. I'm glad you were able to talk about this with your H, and it turned out ok. Bet you never thought THAT would happen, did you?! I hope that you and he can spend some time tonight doing something extra loving for each other, and help to create some new good memories for this day!
