Members Flowrax Posted February 20, 2021 Members Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Not that I want to. I just want to know how long did you wait before you went out there again. I think it's going to take me a while, maybe years. Did any of you re-married? How is it? I guess you love in different ways. After I got a divorce I thought I was never going to love again, to find a man as wonderful as my ex husband. But what do you know?! I found the best man ever.. and now that he's gone I'm thinking the same... He was loving, kind, thoughtful AND handsome It's going to be very hard to find a person that is at least as good as him.

Moderators widower2 Posted September 26, 2022 Moderators Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 I didn't. Or haven't yet, despite thinking of it many times (loneliness is everything it's cracked up to be). I just can't imagine anyone I'd be interested in being interested in me. My social/conversational skills are rusty to put it mildly. You're clearly much younger than me and have much more life in front of you, so I hope you aren't like me and as difficult as it may be, were able to "get back out there" again. You don't deserve to be alone for the rest of your life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Flowrax Posted October 12, 2022 Author Members Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 I did get back out there but that after a long time trying to make sure the person understood my situation. It’s not easy but there’s hope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John3kd Posted October 20, 2022 Members Report Share Posted October 20, 2022 I lost my partner 3 months ago and don’t really think that going dating again would work. I feel that’s I’m being unfaithful to my love and we’d also carry so much baggage that they’d be fed up with us fairly quickly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it time and let it be whatever it is. If you think about it, it really isn't being unfaithful at all, although I get those feelings, having had similar. As for baggage, I think that's why it's a good idea for someone to know about your situation early on. In fact, this dating site, designed for "older" people, probably has its share of widows/widowers FWIW (this is a general FYI to anyone in that situation): https://dating.silversingles.com/ge7n91/774577/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members April Ballou Posted January 4 Members Report Share Posted January 4 The one and only reason I'm even thinking about dating is because of several conversations that I had with my husband when he was alive. We would always tell each other that if something was to happen not to live alone, find someone special. This September it will be three years since he died. I don't even know how to look for a date.
