Marriage and True Love

Hi, there! That's too early to look for a new wife. I think, that with his age, he is looking for someone to take care of him that's why he is looking for somebody. He has no wife and no children. I think, he loved her wife so dearly as you described when she was still alive. Perhaps, his reason is to look for someone to take care of him and not replace his wife in his heart.

Hi Seriousnuts, I've seen this same situation play out time and time again. I used to wonder at it too. What I've noticed is that men especially seem to NEED to be with someone if they have been married for a long time. It is as if they aren't so much looking to replace their wife but more to fill the gap left. They don't want to be alone. I've noticed that men are very quick to take up with someone else after such a loss where women are more apt to take their time and maybe never find love again. I don't think it really means that they did not love their wife. I think they loved being married and don't cope well with the emotional loss and being alone. I am guessing of course. I think that a man who has been through this could give you better insight. I just know that it is not uncommon for a man to pick up and move on to someone else rather quickly and I really don't think it has anything to do with how much he loved his wife.

For me at that age is not good to have a wife for true love. I think he got it already in his wife and now he is searching for a new wife not for love but for companion. That old age is needed a companion in life to look for him. But i am not saying that all of them maybe others are not. This is just my opinion about your post. For me if i am getting widow i will never get another husband. Its better to stay single at all otherwise i had children and i will pass away also. And i will wait my ending point until when the Lord get me.

i think preferring to stay single rather than marry someone you don't love is a very sensible thing, seriousnuts. but no one really knows what this marriage was like, he may just have been very dependant on her, for company or something, and so wants to replace her as soon as possible. which is not very romantic at all, but this couple are just one amongst billions in the world, there are many where there is genuine love, and too many where there isn't. but they are just one example and you shouldn't draw too many conclusions. but people do marry for convenience, rather than genuine love, theres no point denying it, but hopefully you won't seriousnuts, especially if you decide not to.

Ok, that's the not great problem now for this new world. If he needs or want a new life he can marry a new woman again. I think it is not a bad for him/her to start a new life again if he/she wants. Every one in the world has right to start the new life again.

is your acquaintance married to this new girl? if that is so then that is pretty fast. but if not... maybe your acquaintance is just seeking for some company. as you say that they don't have any kids so maybe he is really feeling lonely when he does not have anyone around. maybe this girl came when he badly needed someone. unless if this girl is 20 years younger than him. there must be some hidden agendas to it. true love exist and i want to prove that someday when i get married. and that is true! i agree with you. i would not want to marry a person if i do not really love that person.

true love does exist unfortunately many people are married for reasons other than this...if you've found a best friend first in a man then you will find your true life time love

U said he has no children and is a little bit elder, I think the reason why he needs another wife so quickly is he just wants to have a child of his own in order to inherit his things, and maybe this is his and his wife's wishes, maybe his ex-wife doesn't have the ability to be pregnent because of her cancer, for the deep love to her husband she just wants to let her hunsband becaome happier. So don't think too much about other people's love, pay special attention to ur own love, there IS true love around us, me and my boyfrien is an example.

actually, true love will never disappear, whatever the reason. In this case I do not blame the attitude male who became subjek your post. I'm sure, his love remain to his wife. All he did was to find a life friend who will accompany old day him which lonely.

This man needs a companion for more reasons than one. I find nothing wrong in it. Seniors getting married has become a way of life these days. He must be helpless without anyone in his life and so a urgent need is felt to have someone with him.

hello, did you already ask him? well, for me? he just want to move on fast because he is hurting to much, I mean he is scared of being alone. He just dont want to be sad and alone at all. Yes, I believed that true love do exist because it is always depends on the person you love and at the same time to you. If you will gonna married him just for money or what. i mean nowadays it is really hard to believe that true love still exist. Yes, if i will not prefer to marry a man who I dont love. I can wait and wait until he come.

We'll first of all, you have to consider his situation. Getting to that age and having no children can make him, or anyone for that matter, really lonely. Most of us, and I mean us, as human beings, needs companionship to make life in this world more bearable.

If he is at young age, atleast we can tollerate. But you said he is in 60's. This is too much and unbearable. He can involve himself in some social activities and make himself engaged

Within the same year sure is pretty early to find someone new. We don't really know the real reason why he looked for a new wife that early. Knowing his age, I guess he just don't want to be lonely. Since you've mentioned that he has no children, all the more reason for him to find someone new. I guess there are some people who just wants to be with someone so they can feel loved and being cared for. I don't really know if that guy really loved his wife or not. I believe that there are some who marries another just for the sake of marriage. But I also believe that true love still exists.

I think he looked for a new wife just because he felt lonely and want someone will keep his company.
