Rule of thumb I always heard...give it 1 month for each year you were married before starting a new relationship (regardless of how the marriage ended).

I have a friend whose brother just moved into The Villages with his girlfriend. She is 55 and he is 51. My brain has trouble processing that.

Tell them they don't have to be married to go to Daytona Bike Week.

That does seem a little on the young side. I've been a couple of times to visit my father-in-law. Place definitely has a vibe. Felt like I was in the Truman Show.

My grandfather got remarried much quicker than that. Twice.

I've seen similar situations with people I've known, whether their spouse died or they got divorced. They jump into another marriage without letting themselves go through the grieving process. I don't think it's healthy but to each his own I guess. It can also cause problems with their relationships with their children if they have any.
A valid concern.
A friend of mine lost his wife. They had no children and were a perfect match. He ran into an old girlfriend who had lost her husband. He wondered if they were moving to fast. I told him life was for the living.

Yeah we'll see how it shakes out. Some people just can't be alone.

Some shite was definitely going down before he passed.

I have a friend who nursed his wife through cancer and he was dating a mutual friend shortly after the time the wife passed. Eyebrows raised of course but he wants some happiness after a few years of hardship.

Maybe the husband was a real dick! If that's the case...I don't blame her for wanting to be with someone else so quickly. Life's too short to wait.
