She could handle it better if I died first. She's more independent than I am.
-
I hope that I am first to go, but emotionally I think I could handle it better than him.
-
I think my spouse would handle it better if I went first (and I hope I do go first).
-
i could handle it better if she died first, on an emotional level and a financial level... She doesnt have a job, I do everything for her (my choice) so I know she would have a really hard time, keeping up with things if i wern't around (anyways who would fix the computers)
-
My wife says... if she died first... it wouldnt matter how i handled it.. (SHE'D BE DEAD!)

read some of my answers on the subject and you will know.

Grim, but a part of life. I think I would be the one who could handle it better. I have lived through the deaths of two people who were very close to me, and I know that I have it in me to 'keep living' and finding the good in life. I think my husband would have a harder time dealing with it, as he deals with death differently than I. I'm hoping neither of us has to face this anytime soon.

I would handle it alot better than my husband,we were only talking of this very subject the other week.
-
My s/o could handle it better. I don't even want to think what would happen to me if he died first. It is more probable though cause he is older than me and is around chemicals all the time...sigh.
-
I think that i would handle it better, but then im really not sure.... ive always thought that i would die before my hubby, but - who knows???
-
I would handle it better than him. I have a stronger support system than he does. Aside from me and our son, my husband is a bit of a loner.
-
obviously, I would handle it better if I died first because I wouldn't be here to go throught the pain of the loss. I definatly would want to die first. my only concern is causing the pain of others I leave behind.
-
I don't handle the death of loved ones well. I think my S/O would handle it better if I went first.
-
I honestly have no idea..
-
Neither of us would handle it well at all, I hope we die at the same time...unfortunitly the chances of us dieing of old age at the same time would be pretty slim there for it would have to be in an accident :o
-
That is grim. However, I'm pretty hardcore. I'd deal with it better. I see death as part of life. If you know it's going to happen you're more prepared to accept it when it does.
-
I have already promised not to leave my S/O alone and I fully intend to keep that promise. I don't know how well I could handle it, but I will not leaver her alone.
