So next week it will be a year since my husband passed away. He was given 2 years and we only had just over 20 weeks.
How much my life has changed sometimes for the best and sometimes for the worst. A lot of our friends who are couples seem to have dropped me but I have got in contact with a very old friend of ours who we lost touch with once we had our children.
I have a blossoming romance starting and this is where my problem starts. Is a year too soon to start seeing someone?
I have seen this guy 5 times since September, he doesn't live nearby, but he is very keen and says he isn't going anywhere, he is also widowed.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks Everyone and take care
HIDonny d welcome to the forum.. There is no set time frame for when it's right to feel happy again. However, I feel sure that your partner would not want you to go through life alone. Nobody can tell you what to do and only you will know what feels right for you and when. Don't let others put you off doing what feels right for you it's your right to choose.
