"Sue - the key component of your comments is that you 'met this man a few weeks ago.....a few weeks is enough time for infatuation not real love. It's going on 27 months since I lost my honey whom I still miss every moment of every day.…"

Robert's Baby replied to Supa Dupa Fresh's discussion For those who have dated... how did you know when you were ready?
"No you are not dreaming! I've been dating a widower since July of last year and he has courted me throughout this period. When we met, I had only been widowed for 8 months and had no interest in dating or even talking to another man. But the…"

Robert's Baby replied to nature girl's discussion How do you start dating?
"Today is the 8 month anniversary of Roberts death and I started dating 3 weeks ago. Not intentional by any means. Went to a concert with friends, started talking with a guy there, he took my number and we've talked almost everyday since…"

"I'm really glad that someone else relates this experience to being 'biploar'! That's exactly how I feel sometimes. Some days filled with great hope and expectation and then the crash! I had begun to wonder if I needed medical…"

Robert's Baby commented on Kitequeen's blog post Widow vs. Widow
"So well written and is a reflection of my feelings too! To have a vibrante, healthy husband to the one who lost all vitality was heart wrenching to watch. I too felt a sense of relief for him and yet a sense of shame that I had those feelings. Thank…"

"Honey, talking hellps, getting on chat and expressing what I am feeling is one of the best things for me, but then I am a talker. The more we talk at times like this the easier the burden is to bear. This is not an easy journey we are on and you and…"

Seven Months and Fourteen Days - Alone

As I walk through this new phase in my life it seems that only those in widowedvillage understand what it's like! I don't chat or blog often but I do visit the site and read the comments; sometimes even in the chat room just not commenting.  One of the reasons that i've not spoken for myself is that you all speak for me! I feel what you feel - the pain, the loss, the loneliness, the confusion, the tears, the smiling face that tells a lie - the full gammit.

As I drive up to my house and see that the grass needs cutting, the flower beds need cleaning, the trees need trimming, and on and on and on....what and how do I get it all done? I used to think that Robert did nothing around the house and now I know how wrong I was! It will 6 months on May 23rd since his death and I hurt soooo bad. You are the only ones who really can understand,. As I write this tears are streaming down my face because I don't know what's next! How do I get all done? I…

Welcome to Widowed Village. You’ve come to a wonderful place filled with those who "get it". Joining groups is a great way to get connected to others who have similar experiences. Jump into some of the forum discussions, request some friends, try out the chat room, just immerse yourself in this very special place.  I look forward to getting acquainted with you here in Widville.

My grandparents lived in Southfield (on Dun Scotus) and I grew up in Adrian, Michigan.
