[quote=Anonymous]It's extremely common for men OP's age to need to be re-partnered immediately. In a way, it makes sense, because he doesn't know how to be a person on his own. He's always had a wife.

Every time I have seen this situation (recent widower, new relationship with inappropriate partner that adult children are opposed to), it's been part of the widower's grief experience. It never goes particularly well, if only because the women they date usually end up either controlling them/taking the money or leaving because they do not appreciate being a manifestation of someone's grief for their dead wife of 40+ years.

OP, consider that what you need is to build a life that supports you, not find a wife who will do that for you.

And apologize to your daughter for suggesting that she invite this woman to the birth of her child. You were wrong to suggest it, and every day that goes by without you acknowledging that and apologizing for it makes you more wrong. You've done a lot of wrong stuff in this situation, but this is the most wrong, so fix it.[/quote]
