[quote=Anonymous]OP, my husband died suddenly, and I began my first round of dates about 3 months later. I didn’t start truly dating anyone until about 6 months. The thing I can tell you is I came to peace with his death relatively quickly, because that’s all you can do. Death is final, unlike a divorce or a breakup where you have some gray area. I still struggled from time to time with the fact that he wouldn’t be present for specific activities, and I still do. I’ve learned that I am able to continue loving him, while also opening my heart to another. The new person does not replace my husband. Please be kind to the uncle and his new companion. Remember that he didn’t have to seek out someone wholly different from his wife because they didn’t end with the anger and frustration of a separation. He likely looked for someone who shared his wife’s good qualities, and found her. [/quote]
