When someone you know dies, do you think you keep seeing them places?

Question

I do.
It's not them, but someone who looks like them, and it happens to me all the time.

Answer 1

I think because you are conscious of their not being around anymore, you are more apt to notice people who look like them...I think it's only natural to do so.

They are so much on your mind that you see and hear them, whether it's in your mind's eye or just your brain playing tricks because it's in disbelief, and sometimes its just reminding you of what they would say to you at that particular moment too. I like to think that it's God's way of providing comfort to us, even though it's through grieving, because you truly can't move on until you've gone through the grieving process. It transforms you and in a sad way heals you enough so that you can move on but don't ever push them out of your mind because it's too painful to remember them...by remembering them, is how you ease the pain...when you love someone they never leave you, so you will always feel the pain but it's more like a strong ache after a while and not quite so debilitating. Have good friends who love you around you. They will help you through, and pray to God for strength too, that is one thing you can do for yourself. You will feel broken for a while, because your life as you've known is has been shattered, and now a new life begins, one without your loved one, but we all pass this way but once and other's times on this earth may be shorter than someone else's. We take it for granted that we are here forever, but none of us are.

Answer 2

When my aunt died I never seen her but I could feel her around me so did my mom. And after my mom and I went into another room a picture of Jesus flew across the floor. We went back into that room it was by the stove the frame broke but not the glass. I wouldn't say I was scared I was mostly shocked. And I also seen 3 angels with light blonde hair but time I looked at the face they were gone I seen them for 2 seconds. When I seen them I was very relax (it was the day I was crying too) I wish I knew why they came to me for I still wonder : ))


Rock on!

Answer 3

It's not deja vu. That's much different.
But it does happen to many people (self included). It's just simply a way to help ease the mourning. I've noticed that if I see someone that reminds me of a deceased friend/relative, it's usally at a time when I miss that person. My mind then becomes valnurable to think that I see that person all the time.
If it only happens once in a while, don't worry about it.
If it happens ALL the time, seek psychological help.

Answer 4

scientist will tell you its part of the grief process you are having a hard time letting go of their image and you are trying to find them in everyone you meet while this may be true i like to believe that there is life after death and that's our loved ones letting us know that they are all right too many unexplainable things happen that science doesn't have the answers for that the truth of god does explain

Answer 5

This has happened to me a bunch, also. I think it is because that person is always on my mind. Sometimes I am comforted by it. I makes me feel like they are still around or that they know I am thinking of them.

Answer 6

I do too! I thought that I was the only weird one! My fiance thinks it is because we want to see them and want it to be them so bad, that sometimes they have very little similarities and still I will think I see them!

Answer 7

Yes, my brother. I once ran into someone that looked almost exactly like him. I also would hear his voice sometimes.

Answer 8

never happen to me but i think it happens to people either cuz they think about them too much Or which is not likely there is reali a ghost or somethin

Answer 9

Yeah,it`s happened to me.Haven`t seen him in a while.
