putting the fun back in funeral

what would you call yourself when somebody you deeply loved passes away? if you were married, you become a widow or widower. what if you weren't? ex-lover? xgf/xbf? that sounds more like you broke up, which in this case, you didn't. ex-future-potential-mate? another thing: since you were so into this person, when they pass away, you didn't technically break up. how do you go about picking up the pieces?

mi corazón has been gone for a month, as of today. to say that i miss her terribly is like saying that the Marianas Trench is deep; it's just common knowledge. at least for those in the know.

i talked to mi corazón's sister today, and she asked me to have fun, or at least try. made me promise, too. i must say that i did. after all, that's definitely what she would've wanted....
