You simply cannot be disappointed if you have no expectations!

I'm widowed with 2 boys. I never have any expectations when starting to date. I would rather establish the friendship first. It's hard with kids!

Was finally going on my first date since being widowed only to have him ask to reschedule. More waiting, more nerves...

I was widowed at 21, trying to date after being married is the hard part now. It seems no-one can meet my standards anymore.

It sucks to feel isolated.

I thought I was ready to date....turns out I have no idea how to start all over. It's been so long. It sucks being widowed. I feel so lonely and like no one understands me.

My friends criticize me for being a single widowed dad. They say that I should date someone so my kid has two parents. I won't settle for less, plus she has to like me and my baby.

As a widow in my 20s, this journey wasn’t the one I intended to have. However, after 4 years I’m finally ready for love again. I’m just scared no one will accept or want to date me.
