I lost my beloved husband 3 months ago now
I wasn’t looking for anybody else but I met someone who is really nice kind man
I have been on a couple of dates that’s all
I told my kids they were upset which is understandably
But they have been vile to me saying I am disrespecting my late husband and I shoudnt meet anybody
My kids are grown up for they own life’s
My husband said to me when he was poorly he’s wish was for me to be happy if I met anybody it has to be someone who makes me happy and will look after me
I’m so so upset I just don’t know what to do

Hey Dotty, It certainly is a tough one eh… I guess at the end of the day you’re old enough to make your own choices and live with the consequences… My opinion and it is just my opinion everyone is entitled to make one but If you need to make important decisions, you should wait for at least one year following such a significant loss. This will give you sufficient time to process the death, go through the stages of grief, and regain some of your diminished cognitive capacities.
You’re allowed to meet someone new, they say our hearts are big enough to love more then one, not sure I agree but that’s my choice… I guess you’ve not long lost your husband and your emotions are all over the place as you’d expect… But regardless of what anyone says it’s your life and only you can live it… I hope you get through it and find the best path for yourself… All the best x
