I Am a Young Widow

Don't ever settle and don't make others feel like you should just so you're not alone. You're a strong woman and you loved your husband dearly.
You have my respect!

As cliche as it sounds... when the right one comes along, you'll know it 😘

I am 46 . I became a widow right after my 40th birthday. He was a hard act to follow. Passed at 43 from a weird birth defect we had no idea about until autopsy. It was tragic but we are doing pretty good considering. Thanks for letting me vent

the pain never goes away but you learn to live with it. been 15 years now

ugh i’m sorry. how old are you? dating is hard after 35 in my experience

Well dear you shouldn't settle for just anyone. You need to find that someone who compliments you, and you want to be around. It'll happen, you just will need to be patient. Keeping my fingers crossed it happens sooner rather than later. ;)

I was middle-aged when my wife died. It's an awful blow but you do have a choice as to how you react. The obvious truth that sounds self-evident is this; they are not coming back. Internalizing that obvious truth became my new base. Starting from that I re-approached the world.

That has to be a tough situation. But I do understand how you feel.

I wish I knew what to say to fix this. 😢🤗

First let me express my sorrow for your loss. 🤗

Secondly I’ll say - you never know. I think it’s good to have high standards - especially if your husband was someone very few could compare to. But hang in there. Stick to your guns. You never know when you’ll find him.

You'll get back out there when you're ready... Just don't wait too long ;)

🤗

💔🤗💕

hang in there
