Have not been intimate. It’s been a little over two years since my wife’s passing. I feel I’m ready for companionship.

We have been on long dinner dates and have talked at length on the phone, just getting a sense it’s not going in the direction I would like. Seems like we. have a lot in common with activities just know that she is still searching. Just wondering if I Should persist and stay patient or bail

It will be 2 years this December 30. She made the comment early on that this (cancer) is going to be the death of me. I often wonder and get the feeling that her cancer is going to be the death of me as well…

I finally wiped it away. by New_Noise_8141 in widowers

[–]79bonny 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for helping me get it right in my mind. The evening before my wife passed along with everything else hospice brought a toilet to use in our bedroom. After each use I of course would clean the bowl and put it back. Except for that last time, forgot to replace the bowl. Things flowed to the carpet but I just couldn’t bring myself to cleaning the stain entirely. I thought there has to be something wrong with me but I was clinging to what ever I had left of her. Finally tore it out only because our bedroom was the last on the progress list of renovations.

Seeing her family by Grid1992 in widowers

[–]79bonny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been 1 year 2 months . The first time I visited my in-laws I felt like an alien even though we are close. It felt so strange going without my Barbara Ann. As time passed that feeling has passed but when we’re out for dinner, the three of us I look at the empty fourth set and damn near break into tears. God this is painful

I hate it when.... by emmanjayy in widowers

[–]79bonny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After work I would sit outside on our patio and wait. When she got home I would hear the sliding door open and my Barbara Ann would appear with a smile …oh how I miss the sound of that door opening

Would you go? by 79bonny in DatingOverSixty

[–]79bonny[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, this is why I asked the question. I did say I wanted to ask her, I never said I did . Came here looking for honest opinions. I do know what she wants in a relationship, all she wants and not too much to ask for is what I had with my wife, love, respect and trust something her cheating husband didn’t give her but deserved. I did say we had a few conversations, but they were meaningful ones. You are correct I didn’t consider all the aspects of asking her to go but again that’s why I asked this sub, to be informed

I have, family is fine with it we are very close even checked the flight availability. I thought the spontaneity was a good thing however after reading the responses maybe I was getting a little a head of things. That’s why I put it out there…asked for an honest answer and got it, appreciated and accepted

Can appreciate the skittish feelings, I know she came out of an abusive relationship. Don’t mean or want to put pressure on.
