I'm happilly married and have a wonderful child. So, it's an awkward feeling to mourn an ex-girlfriend. We were together for the better part of a decade from the time I was about 17 and throughout that time she struggled with cancer several times probably originating in an adolescent bone cancer. When we finally called it quits, we didn't speak much in the following years and she had no internet footprint. Yesterday I searched her name and found her obituary. It looks like the cancer finally took her. Despite spending all those years together we never shared common friends and her closest friends were her sisters. So I type this now just for myself and to just put it out there because I've got no one to pour one out with who knew her. God rest her soul. May all her secrets in her journals be kept, and may all her work of beautiful art find their place. May peace be on all those who she loved and were with her in the end.

Its always okay and important to grieve. Thanks for sharing. 🙏
The people from our pasts helped us to form the people we are today. It's ok to cherish that, especially if you are happy with yourself and your life now. I wish peace for her soul and your mind. It's ok to let those memories rest now, too. đź«‚

Thanks for sharing. Life is a weird journey and they affect we have on each other is immeasurable. Just because she was an ex doesn’t mean she didn’t have an impact on you and you are justified to mourn her death. Your feelings are not wrong, it’s okay to feel them. Remember her fondly and be thankful for your time together.
Thanks for sharing and sorry for your loss 🙏
