Since I have been a widow for many years, I have been trying to get used to missing him on the holidays. BUT......it still hurts this time of year. I will be glad when January 2 rolls around. I hate this time of year.

My sweetie was a holiday kind of guy. I never was, even when he was here. I hope they go by quickly.

Thank you for all the good wishes and advice. It has helped me more than you will ever know....thanks.

I am finally going to take the leap and start dating again. I was wondering when it is appropriate to meet a man for coffee after you email each other? I have been emailing 2 men and both have asked me out for coffee. Do I say yes to both (different times of course)? I am new to dating after being married for such a long time. I don't want to appear too forward to either of them. I have been a widow a long time and I finally want to get out and meet folks. I have been very lonely....I know we all feel like that some days. Thanks for the help.

Me too.....

Yes, I understand what you are talking about. The neighbor's kids are all grown up now and off to college. It has been a long seven years I often say where did the time go, I understand every word you wrote.
