I Still Miss Him...

Tuesday, May 13, 2025

I still miss him.
Not in the loud, dramatic way people expect.
I miss him in the small, invisible ways no one sees.

Like when the room goes quiet and my brain fills in the sound of his voice.
Or when I catch myself laughing and feel a flicker of guilt—because part of me still thinks I shouldn’t be able to.

It’s not something you “get over.”
People say grief softens with time, but they never tell you it also sharpens—at the worst moments.
A familiar scent.
A song playing in a store.
Someone saying his name like it’s just a name.

It’s not.

He wasn’t just someone I loved.
He was my compass. My calm. My proof that maybe the world wasn’t always out to break me.
And then he was gone.

So no, this blog won’t be full of perfect answers or polished healing arcs.
I created I Still Miss You because grief isn’t tidy. It’s a long, crooked road with no map and no guarantee you’ll recognize yourself on the other side.

But here’s what I’ve learned:

You can still miss someone and still move.
You can still break and still rebuild.
You can still grieve and grow—without letting go of the love that shaped you.

This space is for anyone who’s still missing someone.
For anyone who feels like the world kept spinning without them.
You are not alone here.
And neither am I.
