After having a great time with my fiance yesterday I started thinking how I really wouldn't want to live without him and how hard it would be to do so if/when that time comes. Below is a article about a husband and wife that was in a house fire and the wife couldn't get the husband out so she laid beside him and they died together.
We have 4 kids together so assuming something awful were to happen to him, yes I'd have to continue living. I'd try to raise our children in a manner which would honor him and make him proud.

So how do you feel about possibly living without your husband/wife?
I'm going through that now... the love of my life, my one and only, my darling died on October 28th after a short battle with pancreatic cancer... we were only together 9 short years and had tons of plans for our future.... I can only take one minute/hour at a time and put one foot in front of the other.... I DON"T want to go on alone.... And for some reason all my friends and family tell me I HAVE to go on alone.... This is the worst time of my life.... and before anyone says, it will get better, I've heard that enough in the past 10 days.... I'm going to be 53 in a month and I keep wondering what's the use of continuing on? Why?

I wouldn't remarry either. I'd have to be strong for my daughter.

I have no words to ease your pain, but do want to express my deapest sympathy for your loss. My thoughts are prayers are w/ you. I'm close to your age. If I were to lose my husband, my daughter would keep me going, but so would the pets that we shared together, especially his dream dog he finally got a couple years ago.
continue on Unicorn1209 , your darling would have wanted that.Let the dreams you and your love made move forward..Only time can ease your pain, live your life in honour of your fallen mate.

Oh unicorn, my heart breaks for you!
I say all the time that even if my husband and I are married 50 years it won't be long enough or enough time to enjoy all the things we'd like to together I am SO SORRY your time with your beloved was so short!
You ask "what's the use of continuing on?" - a very natural thing to ask this soon after losing your mate.
I would say, PLEASE, give yourself a little time to get over the shock and grief, this is all so fresh and new your emotions will be all over the place heading toward the depths of despair initially.
It is my sincere hope that given some time you will be able to feel like life is truly worth living again. Please, just take things one hour at a time for now. Hugging you in my heart....
I've been with my b/f a little over 5 years now and while I do enjoy spending time with him, if some tragedy happened and he lost his life, I'd still mourn the loss, I'd grieve but I'd get on with life eventually. You have to. You can't just give up on life because your life partner is gone. and yes, if the roles were reversed, I'm sure he'd move on with his life as well.
