Unexpected sense of relief

I have just realised that tomorrow is 4th August. This was an anniversary that my ex and I used to celebrate. We split up in 1984 (I have realised only recently that he was an abusive narc - I didn't at the time) and every year since we broke up he has communicated with me in some way that it's 'our' day and he hasn't forgotten.
Tomorrow will be different because he died a while back, and I won't be getting any messages. Am I wrong to feel relieved that he's gone for good?

Absolutely the right reaction - death can be a huge release for all involved. Flowers

You're not wrong at all, as @Supersimkin2 said its completely the right reaction given the circumstances. Enjoy your day of peace and relief tomorrow
