Hello everyone,
I lost my darling Wife of 45 years 2 1/2 years ago. I think I have been doing quite well with grief but recently and I think stupidly I have looked at online dating. Nothing has happened except a few online chats and subscriptions to the websites. The websites are little more than scams. I feel terribly guilty and racked with shame. I’m not looking for anyone to replace my Wife, just a friendly face and a chat over a glass of wine and nothing more than that. Has anyone else been in this position, please?
