I don't know what I'm doing sometimes..its Soo hard trying to move on..I know I'm not alone..but it feels that I am...I'm not looking for everything to happen at once..and am missing our life together..does it not feel right to most of you in my position...there are a lot of great people out there...and I don't feel I give it a chance...and are women afraid of widowers because of what I just said?

JMO, It think it is easier for widow/widower to date each other. But I state that is only my opinion.
It has been 3 years for me and sometimes I still wonder what I am doing.

It will be 8 years in August and I still am very cautious. I sure don't know what I am doing most of the time . I'm told it gets better

 I could write an essay on the last six years....but I won't. We all know what it feels like, and what we are going through. In the beginning I thought that I had to 'start over', change my life even more than it had been changed. At some point I decided that I wanted to just live each day and enjoy the beauty around me, to appreciate all the good things that I had, and the rest of the good things that I still have. I knew that any time I wanted to I could go out and make an effort to do....whatever I wanted to, really.
I decided to 'just let life happen, and enjoy each day'. That's when I found peace.
I was married for 45 years.

I agree and it is so much different when you are a younger widow. Especially with young children. I find it hard to meet people or even to know what I want when it comes to a relationship.

It's just hard , I've always been a strong person and this definitely had made me stronger...It's just learning how to take my guards down

I have become a much stronger person, due to the things that happened in my life. But you just have to put things in the closet, and shut the door. And just move on with your whole heart, mind, and soul.

Hi there,gaurding is not so terrible,there are woman and men out here that could take a person and hurt them all over.The gaurding is ok untill you are sure that they will not hurt your heart.You have an open wound and now is the time to cover and be sure the person will not ripp it open again.The right person will not hurt you or anyone else in their lives.so watch them and make up your mind after careful observation,oh yes one more thing its ok to cry.I cried for almost 2 years and finally the hurt lessened.You loved them so of course you will cry that is so natural.I sincerely hope you find the right one,and believe me she will be careful of your heart and never ever try to hurt you.sincerly Gayle
