Answer #1

I too, am sorry for your loss. I agree with garyswife, and you really should try to talk to him about it. It wont be easy, its not an easy converstation, but its never good to mask your pain. I once read that pain is vital to mourning a loss. Trying not to feel the pain is not normal, its unhealthy; and that the two main things that can heal a broken heart in the aftermath of a loss is time and the confort of the Holy Spirit. And you may not understand some of the things that happen in your life, but that it does not make God unloving. I dont know if this helps, but I do know that God is our great Comforter and that you’re not alone. God bless

Answer #2

Wow… I am so sorry for your loss… I can’t even imagine. I think you need to just make him sit down and talk to him about it. If he doesn’t want to talk to you, maybe ask him if he would rather talk to a psychiatrist or something. I don’t think it will tear you apart, it is just upsetting to him. I’m sure its just as upsetting to you. I don’t understand why he won’t talk to you about it though. Y’all really should talk about it…
