I'm really sorry, but don't beat yourself up over being emotional. It's ok, and just because you had one emotional episode doesn't mean that you're not doing well. Hugs to you!
I'm sorry, was it just the one year anniversary? I can't imgaine losing a spouse, that must be incredibly difficult. It's okay to cry! It's okay to cry in front of your boyfriend too. You are human. It's a sad thing to go through, embrace your emotions don't fight them.
Stuff keeps sneaking up on me. I feel silly crying over a pair of flutes. And I don't know what to do with them or the bag of cards and letters. And the pictures I have on my phone, and the voice mails I can't bring myself to delete. Everytime I get the sads, I remember that he loved me, but not enough to take care of himself and live. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with me, but I didn't know it would only be a five year marriage. He got his wish. And fuck, now I'm crying again.
I'm so sorry!! Do you mind sharing if he died from a sickness of some sort that he didn't take care of or he chose to no longer live? I'm confused by your statement 'he got his wish.' You don't have to answer if it makes you uncomfortable! ((HUGS))

He was an alcoholic. He had a stroke. He was told multiple times by various doctors to quit drinking or he'd die, and he didn't quit. And as far as "getting his wish," he did spend the rest of his life with me. It was just a very short time. And I didn't know he was an alcoholic when I married him, I really only found out when we bought a damn bar.
I'm so sorry, I can only imagine how frustrating that must have been, and then to lose him forever. I think it's perfectly fine to feel emotional about everything, you are probably still grieving your loss, ((HUGS)) again!
