re: How much time is appropriate to wait to start dating again after a spouse dies?

My grandfather has had a best friend since college… he is 88 years old now. So 70 years of friendship. My grandma and his friend’s wife died within 3 months of each other, both after long illnesses.
Within a year, the friend was dating a lady, and they have been together for 7 years, but never married. My grandfather has had no desire whatsoever to date anyone else.
Meanwhile I have a friend whose wife dropped dead of a blood clot at 29… my friend did not date anyone for 5 years, but eventually did and eventually remarried.

If she's feels it's appropriate right after you die, she never loved you

That’s kind of pathetic. Go to sleep.

My opinion is you have to wait at least a year.
If they’re old, let them do whatever whenever. The other one is dead and won’t know the better.

Nothing shows you love someone at an advanced age by watching them suffer alone from heaven.

Some of it depends on “dating” also. I would suggest 2 weeks is too short to create a tinder profile.
If you meet someone randomly at the grocery store, at the pickle ball tournament, etc. is that really wrong if it’s been a couple weeks only?
I know an elderly gentlemen that shipped out to the military and lost touch with his HS sweet heart. He was married almost 50 years to someone else, she passed from cancer. At her funeral, the HS sweetheart stopped by and one thing led to another. I don’t know details or timelines. But I’m going to assume it wasn’t a year.
Seems kinda fricked up, idk. But is that really that wrong?

When one of my cousins was around 12, his grandfather died. Not my grandfather, other side of the family. After a while, an older gentleman asked my cousin's grandmother out. My cousin found out about it, pitched an absolute fit and his grandmother called it off. I thought that was really sad.

FFS, let old people be happy. They die faster if they're alone. Who wants that? OP.

That’s how many spouses die in first place - spouse was already dating while dead spouse was alive.
Saw this on Jerry Springer.

my opinion is
And without being in their shoes.... I hope you kept your trap shut.
Maybe their marriage was all wine and roses and maybe it was a living hell she's ready to put well behind her. Because it night have been her most tragic day ever or the one's she's been waiting on for years. And without you knowing she may have already had enough grieve to last a lifetime.
You just never know....

I was thinking the same thing. Likely had nothing to do with sex. She has had a partner and not been alone for 30 years and now she is. Probably just very scary for her being alone and just seeking companionship.
I have been married for 32 years and have come home to my wife virtually every day of those years barring a few business trips. I don’t know how I would be able to handle coming home to an empty house every afternoon. I sure hope I go first. And if my wife is getting dicked down a month later because she is lonely and that’s what she need to keep her mental health then good for her.

Depends, depends on how many single women are at the funeral.
True life, everyone grieves differently. I have two sister that had husbands die. Looks like both might never get married again.
