It’s been 40 days, 3 hours and 44 minutes

I was outside putting bird seed in the bird feeder. A neighbor from 2 streets over pulled into my driveway and offered condolences for the loss of my husband. He asked how I was and I told him how sad I was. He stated he knew exactly how I felt as his wife just divorced him last week. I said back to him ‘ but your wife is still alive’ and he responded’ Not to me. She’s dead to me now’ The audacity to compare a divorce to a death! To people really think this way?
