[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I had a relative, a man, who remarried fairly quickly after the death of his wife, like 1-2 years or something. I think he just needed a woman, he needed someone to cook, run the house, etc. He was a high-level executive. I'm sure he didn't want to be alone.

His wife had been dying for a long time so he knew it was coming and had time to prepare. I think for spouses of people who die suddenly it might take them longer. Everyone is different though. [/quote]

This is similar to my dad. He started dating soon after my mom died and was married within two years. He is a man who just really appreciates the companionship of a wife, and while in some ways it was hard to see him move on so quickly, in others it was a testament to how much he valued marriage and the sort of partnership he had had with my mom. My siblings and I were all supportive.

He had nursed my mother through four bad years of illness, which I think did make him more ready to move on.[/quote]
Or he wanted sex....

My dad did not remarry. He was very devoted to his wife and when she died,he was focused on  the grand kids. He loved her a lot and kept her memory alive. He just wanted to live the rest of is life on earth until they could be reunited.[/quote]
