[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks guys for giving me perspective. You are right. We are not married and it would be insane for a fully adult male (or female) to fill their timelines with a girlfriend. What if we break up and there are two more girlfriends before he remarried? How embarrassing! We are adults.

At some point though I think that will need to stop before I can consider working towards marriage.[/quote]

No you still don't get it. Getting remarried doesn't erase his late wife and their kids. If you can't life with that, you have no business even dating him. He will never get over her or move on. Never. It's unreasonable to expect that. But, he can come to love someone else. It will be different but love is not finite. Maybe this will help since it seems you don't know much about grief: grief is love turned inside out.[/quote]

+ 1.

OP, you seem a bit immature. How old are you? Have you been previously married or in a LTR?  Because it seems you are in a different place than this man. Who actually sounds lovely because he has not forgotten his wife and the mother of his three children, who are surely hurting a lot because mom is no longer there.  You seem to be not a good fit for this man or his children.  [/quote]
