I have a friend who is a widow since 4 years. She is 43 years old and really lonely. Recently she met a man who is 46 years old and divorced. She also likes the man as she knows him since a longtime. Should she accept this proposal and start her life anew? She has started loving that person......is it a sin?

People always say love is life, yet they themselves are against love. I will encourage them to go further with their love and life. Thanks for your concern.

Certainly NO!.. it is not a sin to love at forties unless they will live together as a live in partner without marriage.

falling inlove does not require any age. it only becomes a sin if the both person who are falling in love is in a relationship at present. since you said that she isa widow and he is divorced then there is nothing wrong with falling inlove and trying to have someone to grow old with. now she will not be lonely anymore. for there is love again around her. good luck for her.

Personally, I don't really see why two people can fall in love when they are older. My mom and dad have been separated for a really long time, and she met a man whom she fell in love with about 4 years ago, and she's in her fifties. I don't think that falling in love is only for the young, for those who are a certain age. Falling in love can be for people of all ages.

Yes, it IS a sin if she (a widow) marries someone that is divorce it is NOT a sin for her to marry someone that has nevered married. But God forgives. All she needs to do if she really loves this man and wants to marry him, is ask for Gods forgivness, he is a awsome God that forgives!!!!
