Having lost my darling hubby in 2021 i thought i would be alone forever. But i now know thats not true I’m fallen madly in love with a truly wonderful man. He’s so loving and I’m absolutely besotted with him. To think I’m got a second chance at happiness is truly wonderful . We are going on holiday together next year and i cant wait to show him my favorite haunts. So anyone that thinks you will be alone forever you never know whats round the corner . I will never forget my hubby but i think you have to live your life as best you can and i like to think hubby would approve and be happy for me .

Thanku all for your lovely replys . At my age 62 its nice to be loved again. And having so many positive comments makes me think its ok. i did question if it was the right thing to do and felt very guilty. But family and most friends are supportive.

@Misprint - I am so happy for you - this is lovely. You and me, we were on this site together in the early days of our grief and walked side by side in those tough times. I, too, have found love and hope again in a new relationship that is gently unfolding.
We are the evidence that, through the pain and heartbreak, there is hope, there is the chance to have love again, differently but no less special, with another.
Loads of love,
Nicola

Hi Nicola
Yes we have had a awful journey together I’m so pleased you have found love again. We are both got a second chance and i feel so lucky at my age (62 ) to have found a truly awesome guy who excepts my past and that sometimes i feel low and supports me . Early days for me too but its so intense spent a few weekends away in a hotel and I’m fallen in love all over again. Hope this works out for you too and well done to you for being brave and taking the next step truly happy for you. Xxx send a big hug

After all the pain and heartache of losing a husband/wife it’s so uplifting to read of those who have found love again . I have dated and met 2 lovely men but what came out of it for me was, I wasn’t yet ready, I realised due to the awful loneliness of being alone after 30yrs of marriage, I had to be sure I was whole again myself and on reflection I realised what I actually want is companionship as opposed to a relationship. As long as 2 people are on the same page it’s great but I have to be honest with myself before being honest to someone else. Life for me now is about enjoying/exploring the freedom I now unexpectedly have and having fun and meeting lots of different people. It may change in the future but I’m in no rush

This is good news that you are now moving on with your life and getting happiness again, your right we must grab life and not live in the past. You will never forget your husband and I am sure he would not want you sitting in a trance but having some happiness again.
