1) I don't think I can love anyone else. DH is my one and only.
2) It will devastate my kids, and so it will devastate me.
3) My DH has a lot of insurance and savings to take care of me. I will not need to marry for financial reasons.
4) I have friends and family and will not be lonely.
5) I have hobbies and interests.


I do hope however that my DH gets married after I am gone. He is too loving a man to live alone. He is also very capable and can take care of his needs on his own, so he does not need a woman for that. However, he has a truly beautiful and loving soul. He should not be alone because that will be such a waste.

(Though I have told him many times that I will haunt him if he remarries...)



This is interesting to me. Why would it devastate your kids if you got remarried, but not if your husband got remarried?

The healthy response is you would be open to the possibility.

Wow, so all the PPs are unhealthy? You have a pretty rigid world view if you believe that.
