nothing fills that hole.
I know that you have a husband and you have said many times things that led me to believe that you aren't that close to him. I meant close connections not just connections.

You were in therapy before your dad died. This means that you have issues, issues that certainly can complicate your grief.

I didn't say that close relationships with others would replace the relationship that you had with your dad. Other close relationships would help you to not overly depend on that relationship with your dad.
