[quote=Anonymous]My first husband committed suicide. He had been struggling for sometime, but his death was both devastating and surprising. The first eight months were a blur, and taking care of our daughter was probably the only reason I kept any kind of routine. I met someone through friends at around 10 months. We went out a couple of times, and it helped me to understand that I wasn't ready. I needed to be whole again before I could really date. I finally started dating un-seriously at about two years, and met the man who would become husband #2 at about three years. Introducing him to the family of husband #1 was scary, but they have gone out of their way to welcome him. We got married two years later. He loves my first child like his own, we had a couple kids together, and life is good. I couldn't have moved any faster and kept my head together - but I could't begin to judge how anyone else handles the situation, as long as they are attentive to their kids needs as well as their own.
