Answer 2

I'm not sure there's anything you can do, except remember him and try to honor his memory. I'm sure your friend would want you to move on with your life and find happiness, make other friends and have more good times like the ones you had with him.

If you've never sought grief counseling, I think you should do it. It's never too late to talk about something like this and discussing your continuing feelings of anger and pain with others who have gone through similar experiences might help to lessen them. It will certainly help you to feel less lonely.

I hope you find peace. Your friend Steve sounded like a great guy.

Answer 3

It takes a lifetime. I am sorry to hear about your loss.

Answer 4

No one can tell you how long it takes to get over someone who you loss in such tragedy. It isn't wrong that you still think about him and feel sad about his loss
