I found that every inch of me wanted someone new in my life immediately after Terry died. You are used to being married and being single is so foreign. And, I have to admit, I thought who would really want me. I'm 51 with 4 kids, white hair, and overweight. If someone had paid attention to me, I would have taken the bait.
But, I realize that jumping into a relationship before I was ready would be disastrous. I have now reached the point (it was been 11 months for me) that I have become comfortable with my singleness. If God so desires that I remain in this state, that is fine. I can accept that. If God were to bring a man into my life, he would have to hit me over the head to make his point.
I'm lonely, but each day I learn how to deal with it a little bit better.
