I am a 24 and a nursing student about to graduate in May. Two months ago in December, my boyfriend who I have lived with for two years committed suicide in the house he owns.
I was upset it about for a while but right when school started up again, as I’m coming closer to graduation, I am exicted that I can move away from this rural town, away from his shoddy house, and away from the responsibilities I have had here. I have been living in his house and plan to until May when I graduate. It is has been so nice being alone in the house when before I had to share it with another person and have the responsibilities of helping to keep it clean. Now I can dance to music in the kitchen while I cook!
Things have been nice because the family paid for his funeral and are having me stay to “manage” the house until they sell it. On many evenings I invite my friends over here to relax and play the Wii.
I am so excited about my life now when I can work as an RN, move to the suburb of a large city, go to nightclubs to eat candy and to dance. I picture myself doing things I wouldn’t have ever done if my boyfriend were here or if I had kids as baggage, lol!
Do you think this feeling is weird? I feel so free!

No, that’s good.
o_o you could have just broken up with him…
No comment is all I can say
Nope, just a douche…
He sounds like he was maybe a tad controlling? If this is the case then it’s perfectly natural to feel free now that he’s gone. Otherwise, yeah it probably is wierd…
I’m glad you see the cup half full.
YOU ARE THE SAME TROLL WHO GOES INTO DISABILITY SECTION SAYING SHE IS AN RN WHO LIKES THE POWER SHE HOLDS OVER PEOPLE!!!!
SICKO TROLL!!!
You might be feeling denial. Unless you really didn’t care about him. I was in denial of my brothers suicide for six months until it hit me and I broke down. Maybe you subconsciously thought he was baggage even when he was alive and didn’t know it. I’ve been there too. I hope you will be alright.
A little creepy. Some people are just better off bieng alone though. Relationships come with alot of strings attached, and sometimes it can be a burden. At 24 it is a bit early in my opinion to be tied down. enjoy your freedom, worry about relationships in 10 years.
not really weird but more of a release i think.you should overcome-the past and be happy-we all must do that.:)
Its creepy, to not feel anything over the death of a person.
Very creepy
It underlines that you and your boyfriend never were as close to each other as you could have been, and that if he had survived, you probably would not have had a good life together. I’m very sorry about your loss, and it’s just that you were never able to see him as a pillar of support rather than a liability. It’s just for the best what had happened. Once again, I’m sorry for your loss.
you are a horrible person
So, you’re single?
Wow, this is a first.
Wow that’s cold, I’ll leave it at that.
