Not much alcohol in the house at the moment. :(

Wow, that is a prime example of situational irony. I'm sorry for your loss.

We're still pretty young, so it didn't really occur to me that he really could be. I was just trying to convey, "Ahem, you've been out of touch too long...I know you're busy with moving and traveling, but you could check in once in awhile."

I suppose that I should've gotten worried before now. We're not often out of touch this long (only once in the last few years over 2 weeks, for 6 weeks when we were both busy last summer.) Even when he would spend weeks traveling in third-world countries, he'd find an internet cafe and catch me online every week or two at least.

I keep going from tears to feeling like it's not real and I'll hear from him tomorrow, and back again.

That is aweful. Things like that are really hard...

Not knowing what happened must be really aweful.. :(

Sorry to hear that.

Although, if you don't post for awhile, we might be in the same position as you are.

Sorry to hear that. Don't mean to sound like an a-hole but why would that stop you from posting here?

When I posted this thread yesterday, I thought I'd want to take a break from everything for awhile, but I find that I'm feeling really lonely and sad today.
