When a wife, husband, mother, father, sibling, grandparent or other close relative passes; time has to heal the wound. There is a grieving process that we all must go through. There are several different stages to the grieving process. Some of us will go through all the different stages before we will come to terms with the loss and others will only go through 1 or 2. We all seem to go through the stage of anger for our loved one leaving us.
If we are talking about a love relation break up it is very similar to losing someone through death. How much this hurts and how long it will take to get over him or her depends on how long the relationship was. Anger is going to be part of the grieving over the lost relationship.
The difference here is that you can replace the lost love by getting out and finding someone new. The sooner you do so the sooner the hurt goes away and the sooner you get over that person.
Pets fall into this as well. The death of a beloved pet will cause the same grief as losing a loved one. Pets become members of the family and it is not unusual to suffer the same feeling when they die or if they run off.
Since you did not say who the lost love was and why you lost that loved on. These are all the loses I can think of and why you could lose them. Hopefully this may help. Time heals all wounds as the saying goes. It is a true saying; give yourself time to grieve then get on with your life. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
