I am a widowed mother, 37 yrs. old. How do I start over again? I was with the same man for a long time, so it is a bit nerve racking. Any suggestions??

how to start anew. Meaning looking for a new love? Well, start going out with friends first. Eventually, you will surely meet someone as potential lover or long time partner. Just be open to all the possibilities of meeting someone. There's no harm and absolutely nothing wrong in desiring to find a new love. Good luck and welcome here.:-)

I've heard this in a movie called "The sweetest thing". She says, "Don't look for 'Mr. Right', look for 'Mr. Right Now' and eventually, the 'Now' will automatically vanish"... All the best...

That mostly depends on what do you want to find. 1 million dollar hint: don't try to find a copy of your ex (RIP). Or at least don't mention it to any eventual him.

coleman1218 dear, I would not worry so much about things. Be yourself, go out, make friends first and then if you meet someone special it will happen. If you try to force it to happen, you will probably be meeting the wrong sort of man. And for the sake of your children, that could be disasterous. Also, do not try to compare the new men to your late husband. We are all different and have different things to offer. You will be OK, girl. You probably have a lot to offer, and the men out there are probably just as nervous as you are.....
