I have been a widow for over 2 years. I have a question,Why does men think that just because I am a widow that All I think about is having sex. Yes I am lonely but not that lonely.

many feel you have freedom and loneliness means longing. Many might feel that because that is only what they are looking for. Perhaps a difference between how men and women think, express their needs. I have encountered that mind frame quite a few times over.

time is just another pain, distance, never the same..just another.

Yes it seems to me that time I miss my husband even more as time gos on. My husband jerry,,passed away aug. 16th 2004 and I stiil miss him when Iam sick or lonely days. I had a boyfriend Neil and Iv been seeing him 2 years this oct.. And june 9th he was in a motorcycle accident. It messed his mind up so we are waiting to see if he will be the person I feel in love with. AndI cry over him everyday now. So the longer it gos, I think a person miss thre love one more,,not less!

I was married for 18 years. Widowed now for 14 years. What I miss most is just going out no where in particular, enjoying each others company.

i could say they wouldn't eat the mushrooms but that would be a lie. loved both because they were team players. the first was a bench sitter. never got off her *** long enough to wash the dishes

Duh, how do you think eve got pregnant?

he is in a better place. just remember that. no more troubles, no more sorrow , no more suffering. no he can look down on you and remember all the happy times and watch over you.

Thanks for the warm welcome Mary and carold

You are most welcome!!

Found my way here as well. Married for 30 years and 7 months, widower for 8 months. Some of the things we talked about when we discovered she had cancer and it was Stage 3 Multiple Myeloma was that she did not want me to be alone and unhappy. Initially I approached the end of her life with the aim to do what she wanted for me. It was very difficult and my heart wasn't into it for a while. I had deep questions if I was just trying to fill the void of loneliness and I think I was for the first 3 months. Now what I miss more than anything is the unconditional love, someone that melts my heart when I look in their eyes even if we're together for years, someone I would lay my life down for in a heartbeat. I miss being in love.
