- Extemely fatigued from fighting this "new" life of so little joy. 2 yrs. Tried everything anybody has ever suggested. Was unloved almost all my life until I met Joe and we loved so beautifully for 16 years total. Cancer stole that away. I've...
- It' hard to realize that it has been over 2 years since my husband's arms were around me. At about a year and a half I started dreaming about men I knew (and didn't know) coming to me and holding me. Just that and nothing more. I realize that I...
- I need advice, guys. At 2 yrs into widowhood I just met a man through Christian Mingle website. We wrote, then talked on the phone for hours and finally met yesterday for the first time in person, for brunch. (Let me give you some info now - I...
- When I married, I was completely immersed in the belief that marriage unites 2 persons into 1. It is in the Bible. But it doesn't have the P.S. after it, that it will only be true until tragedy strikes. Then, all hell breaks loose. People say,...
- Joe and I had dreams that disappeared when he died. I have no dreams of my own. I'm 65, retired during his battle against lung cancer. Since he died, almost 2 yrs ago, I have been diagnosed with diabetes. Just this week I was diagnosed with sleep...
- This is a very small issue. I was wondering which is the correct way to say a person died from cancer (or any other disease)? Should it be that he had a long battle WITH cancer, or should it be that he had a long battle AGAINST cancer.Also, were...
- My wonderful husband Joe has been gone almost 2 years now. It has been an uphill battle all the way, but I have been amazed that I could make it to "wanting to live again". I have a few tears maybe once a week. I have been modifyling our home and...
- For those of us who have been coming to this site for awhile, we notice that occasionally a topic will be brought up that has already been brought up months ago. This does not mean that the oldtimers are re-hashing the same old thing. We must...
- In reading all the posts over months and months, it strikes me how different each marriage was. I had the marriage everyone would die for. A friend of mine was married to a belligerent drunk and he made her life miserable. Both our husbands got...
- On my way home from a church meeting tonight, I drove straight ahead for many miles with the full, yellow moon right in front of me. I live in the country, so I have many miles on the interstate before I turn off to go to my house. My husband and...
- I can't help but notice that everyone is fine with everyone grieving now for 10 years for victims of 9/11. The grief will always be there. Tears will always be understood, probably even at 50 years. And that's OK.That said, why do people think...
- I continue to be amazed by the people in this group. I include myself when I say so many of us have posted here in the depths of despair, anger, loneliness, uncertainty, feeling like we have no purpose. Then, someone else will post their awful...
- Please don't laugh at me or bash me either, for asking the following question. I have just joined ChristianMingle.com with the idea of writing to a few single or widowed men in my town that are Christian . From there, if I like the "feel" I would...
- I was at a seniors gathering yesterday, a luncheon. About 100 people in all, about 98% women. The lady sitting next to me (about 50) said, "Look around this room. I can't believe it's almost all women. Their husbands must be on the golf course...
- OK, there, I said it. I am getting fat. I have to bring this monster of a conversation up, but I have a sneaking suspicion that I am not the only one with this problem. I seem to be able to solve every problem that comes us but this one. I feel...
