I get you gotta move on, but the fact is if you have one that loss is coming again. 10 years? 20? Worse yet single digit. Then if they outlive you its even worse.
there is definately a difference between growing distant and going seperate ways and death. Human deaths are hard but since we have similar lifespans we get them less often until the point were your own is nigh. I mean lord satan if I had as many kids die as pets I would be committed.
