Hi my partner passed away 2 months ago we separated 8 weeks prior . He did have me as next kin and a photo of me in his wallet and us on his bedside table .
i have since discovered he cheated on me last year . Which has been heartbreaking . I still love and miss him .

I’m so sorry. Losing someone you still love is hard enough, and finding out about the cheating on top of that adds another layer of hurt and confusion. It makes sense that you miss him and feel heartbroken at the same time. Both things can be true.
Please be gentle with yourself while you carry all of this.
We are here to support you if you need to chat.

I am so sorry. Having to make the decision to turn off his life support is an unimaginable weight to carry, and two months is no time at all.
It makes complete sense that today, on the anniversary of the day you met, you are in tears. Your love for him is so clear, and it is valid to mourn that deeply.
