Because you love them. You have a place in your heart for them and when they leave you, you feel as though there is a piece of your heart missing. The reason it takes so long is that your heart takes time to heal the piece it is missing. Maybe because we don't really know where they went to.

If you're expecting some one to quickly
get over loosing some one they loved
that would be really sad (and somehow
selfish). What is there to expect? If a
person loves some one else - friend,
family member, lover, some kind of
role model in their life - it's a form of
caring and appreciating having that person
in their lives...and when they're taken from
this world just so suddenly, or even
slowly - it's a pain of the heart and mind
and, if you believe it, the soul.
Life is something you can't just get
back or replace, especially when some
one loved is lost. All you can remember
is the great times or happiness that was
seen in the person and maybe the bad
shadows in the times of their life...some
people may even blame themselves for
the death of a loved one or they think that
somehow they could have prevented it or
done more for that person. Some people
feel guilt, others remorse, and altogether
people just feel emptiness for that person
who can no longer take a place in their
lives. It's hard, but eventually people live
with it somehow...they may get over it or
just establish enough self control to not be
sad or heartbroken every time they think
of that person or every time that person is
mentioned.
It's one of those sad ordeals in life to be
taken by death...it's so....Final.

your family and friends form a house for your soul dreams and ambitions. imagine if someone ripped the living room out of your house. that is kinda like when a person dies. cuz you can rebuild a room with the same function but it is never the same room and you miss the original. morn for as long as you want but don't let it get in the way of rebuilding!

It's because it took us a while to get to know them. Never seeing them again in this life takes some getting used to--absolutely. I just lost my youngest brother a couple of months ago. And while driving down the street, I still catch myself looking for a glimpse of him--hoping, no matter how foolish that I'm going to see him.

you know what, i honestly thikn the symptoms of losing a loves one differs from person to person, however i believe the most prominent reason is that we feel we have lost someone we cud have not dreamed of living without! we feel as though we LOST themm, and life will not be the samee! nd how are we to know that they are going to be saf, or happy?? or that they are truly watching over usss, and not just dead in a bo to be decpmposed?!! but u know what, they honestlyy areee in heaven and looking opver uss with plenty of blessings. trust mee, ive hadd strange expereicnes where i have been in contact with my deceased grandomother!! nd no, i amm not summ freakkk of nature who beleives inn thee sixth sense! but i havee beenn contacted by herr in dreams nd whispered that everything is alright in my ear! nd i know many friends who have also had many paranormal experiences who were never believers in that "crapp." however, not even SCIENCE cann help describee these events which for sure did happen, they werent just somee wierdd eventds created in ourrr" twisted mindss" trust me, there is a god, and the spirit neverr diess.. soo live the happiestt life u cann because thats what theyy need to see to make themselves happy!! they still love you, perhapss MORE TAN EVER!! so make them proudd and move onn, they are haopier and more full of knowledge than ever before. and as ahrd as that isss to believe;;be sure of that<333333333

It might be that this death brings mortality into your life, whether for the first time or the tenth. Different people have different ways of reacting to that. Add that to the simple fact that you've lost the presence of one you held close to your heart, and it can be so devastating.

I am wondering and feeling this same thing right now. i just lost my Mom (she was 57yrs old) this past July. I dont know that I will ever fully recover from it. Part of who I am on a daily basis had to do with her! MY life is different now.

memory of the good times, or the money they still owe you.
It's harder to remember, to forget a memory, than it is to just mourn a memory away.
Some people never get over a loss of a loved one.

There isn't getting over , there is just getting along. You pack it in a compartment in your mind some where and go on with your own life.

Because you shared so many things with them and just about everything you do or see, reminds you of them. It's like they're there with you , and you can't see or touch them.
