I’ve been with my partner for 2 years and though I understand our situation is complicated, my patience (I’m not even sure if that’s the right term) is slowly depleting. His partner died a year prior us meeting. I trust that he means it when he says he has grieved and moved on. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think grief is linear and I understand if he suddenly had relapses.

So far he’s been great! He’s the proactive one since I don’t think I had any say with her stuff so he was the one that threw everything out when we decided to move in together.

BUT I’m still insecure about certain things like how he still has her tagged posts on his socials, her friends still call him from time to time (according to him they’re “her friends” and they just call him as a way to cope - idk how that works but when my friend passed I never ever thought of calling her boyfriend up just to cope but maybe thats just me?), and her family visits us but refuse to talk or even look in my direction.…
