[quote=Anonymous]So, so common for widowed men. FIL had a new girlfriend within a month of MIL passing, and they'd been married almost 50 years. Married 6 months later. I agree with PPs that it means the person just can't fathom being alone. Doesn't make it any easier on the kids who are still mourning the lost parent, though. And yeah, watching this dynamic play out is why DH and I went and put our assets in trusts, one in my name and one in his. No matter which of us goes first, and what the surviving spouse does afterward, at least half of our assets are protected for OUR kids. I am perfectly fine with DH marrying again if I die first, but I don't want his second wife's kids to get my share of our earnings. He can use the money for himself, but he can't leave it to anyone other than our kids. [/quote]
