I wasn't prepared for a female work colleague to suddenly show interest and excitement after newly being widowed.
I wasn't prepared for people to have a time frame in mind they thought was sufficient for me to "get over it"
I wasn't prepared for people to compare their losing a parent to me losing a spouse (it is not the same), thinking they now knew "what I went through".
Most of all I wasn't prepared for the massive hole in my life and the emptiness that came with it.
