Insensitive? Merely realistic.

The risks of such a job are well known. Despite these risks, people decide to take these jobs. Some do so because of familial ties and attachments to such a profession. Some gravitate to it because of a sense of adventure, others because the money is reputed to be good. (although not as good as it once was. Overfishing and pollution have depleted the schools of fish and beds of shellfish. You have to work longer and harder hours for an equivalently sized catch.) Again, this is something that you will see in any New England fishing town.

You said " i never knew how much i loved him until i thought he was going to die."

If you didn't know it before that moment, perhaps you are confusing the feeling. It appears that you were stunned by the possibility of loss, of being alone. That's not the same as being in love. The intensity of feeling in love should not increase merely at that time. I hope I'm wrong.
