Except we both know very well that would have been an extremely bad idea.

But then, I could be completely wrong.

In the meantime,

I have one of The songs on repeat, and it’s 1:30 AM and I need to go to bed and I miss him and I just want to be his

but I can’t;

I’m so sorry.

I’m so sorry.

And I hope this gets to you.

(Although it probably won’t.)

I mean, the obvious answer is yes. And it’s not like they can really stop you. And you can’t just be stuck there forever, wanting to be with a dead person. But then it’s like, oh, well, you died, so I’m just gonna go and forget all about you now.

And I guess, no, you don’t forget about them. But if you don’t forget about them then how do you move past it? How do you get on? How do you fall in love with someone else, marry someone else?

This person I once loved is dead. It’s been [insert number here] years, and I love YOU, so I’m gonna go and marry you. 

Like, do you not love the dead person anymore? What does that even mean?

I’d think you never forget about the person. And you do, you know, think about them occasionally, and probably miss them. And then it’s like, oh, well, s/he’s dead, and I love this person, so even though I’m going to miss someone I love (?) and think about them and want to be with them and want them to be here with me, I’m gonna go marry this new, living person. (I mean obviously you can’t marry a dead person.) (…Yet?) (But seriously.)

I don’t know. Just, how do you move past it if your boyfriend/girlfriend dies, or your fiancee dies, or your spouse dies? I mean, yeah, you get on with life, but how do you get on with love?

1. Get over him.

2. Move on.
