yeah, same here... but not from a break-up; I've always quickly rebounded from those, no worries there.
Mine was from the premature death of someone I will always remember with the fondest of memories.
Cancer stealing someone away who meant so much to me. She owned my heart.. now she's gone.
It will always sting, always.
I've lost my grandfather a few yrs ago to cancer. I loved that man so much. Taught me how to write in cursive. He always bought me chocolate chip cookies...so many wonderful childhood memories. I never got to say goodbye. That's the kind of sadness that last a lifetime.

I miss my dad everyday. but I'm learning to get used to the fact he's no longer around and I'll see him in my dreams. Sucks to lose someone but that's life and life goes on.2

I never stopped. I lost a friend to drug addiction. Dreamed of the day she would become clean and we could be close again. We grew up together from age 1 to age 15. We were very close. Like sisters. 13 years later, she overdosed. Now I will have no choice but to miss her.
My brother has chosen to cut me out of his life. And no matter what I say or do, he continues to act like I don't exist. It really is hurtful when people you care about don't seem to care back. Even when you have done everything a good friend, or in my case, sister could do. And they just don't see it.1 -
When I'm done eating a cookie and feel bad I just move on to the next2

I'm so sorry. I try hard to help find a cure- as no one should have to go through that.0 -
Nothing helps completely. Time, I suppose. Just. . .time.
And running. Running helps everything.4 -

Yeah - I said some stuff than deleted it. Basically I want him to be happy- if that means wo me- sounds good.
Life has just been extremely hard lately. So hard. It could be worse and I'm so glad it's not. But wow, if I could be done I would be. So tired and worn away.0 -

I don't want to forget mine, either.
Why should you have to forget? If you were close to someone I think they will always have a little spot in your heart and brain and life. Just because someone isn't physically present doesn't mean they aren't with you in some way and while you might not miss them as much they're still a part of you2 -

Build a wall. Make it uuuggeeee. Far, wide, tall, thick. Steel, concrete, titanium, adamantium....
That's what I did and will do. Not for everyone. Just her. And there she will remain...on the other side of that wall forever. Where she can't hurt me anymore or ever again.
The end.6 -

A loved one passing away, will always live with you in your heart, you will always miss them, you just get used to them not being there
A friend or a partner who no longer wants to be in your life, I find it best to become emotionally detached from the situation, guard goes up, makes it so much easier to forget them, and stop missing them.
Agree 100%

I am missing someone very very much. I'm allowing myself to grieve. It's an important process. I've cried, I've been angry, I've been depressed and I've allowed myself all these feelings. But I've distracted myself. I've started on a weight loss journey that's been a long time coming and that's helped me tremendously. Hope yr ok *hugs*2

The title question is tough because I think I will always miss the person/relationship a bit even if it doesn't destroy me with sadness every day.
People do pass out of our lives or relationships change. Feel sad for a bit but get busy with other people or things. Count your blessings. Work on yourself and your life.

That's a great question. I recently lost my mother. She was my closest friend. I struggle everyday to move on without her. The moment that death took her is burned into my brain! I miss her dearly and wonder when missing her will be easier.3
