I wanted to be a safe place for those who didn't always feel like they had one.I carried that deeply into my friendships and relationships. I made sure the people I loved knew they could come to me openly, without fear of judgment. I would offer honest feedback, multiple perspectives, encouragement, or simply sit and listen when that was what they needed.ButThu, 24 Sep 2026 10:43:56http://wildwidowssociety.com/blog/the-safe-space-and-the-mirrorhttp://wildwidowssociety.com/blog/relationship-endings-are-weirdRelationship endings are weird.No one really talks about how hard it is to go from doing life with someone to... suddenly not.One day they're your person. Your sounding board. Your emergency contact. Your co-pilot through the ordinary moments of life. Then one day they're not a resource anymore, and somehow you and the kids are expected to just... keep moving.As someone who loves deeply, one of the hardest lessons I've ever had to learn, and am still learning, is how to release.GriefWed, 16 Sep 2026 16:17:52http://wildwidowssociety.com/blog/relationship-endings-are-weird
