That's not uncommon. I've known of a lot of men to get involved very quickly after the death of a wife. Some men just refuse to be alone.
My dh is friends with a man whose wife died and he was dating 2 months to the date of her death. He married that woman about 4-5 months later. It didn't last and he moved on to another woman. Now they're married and he's still miserable but he'd rather that than be alone. I don't get it, but then again, I'm not a man either LOL.
My mother has warned me that if she's the first to die, not to be shocked if my dad has another woman within 6 weeks. She's fine with it and really doesn't even seem to take it personally, or care for that matter.

Hey, I've also known women that started dating again, while the bodies of their deceased spouses, barely had a chance to get cold. I've also know women, who never left a relatiionship, until they had already started another one.

I was just hoping for "fair and balanced." Women seem to outnumber men about 20 to 1 on Websleuths. We men have to get our two cents in occasionally. No harm, no foul.I meant nothing disparaging about men moving on quicker than women, just a pattern that I personally have witnessed.
--WHAT!?--Beth is dating Ramsey??--Good Lord--She needs a shrink and fast!
Can any of us imagine dating someone who has lost a child under similar circumstances. I can't, there would be too much remorse to attempt to deal with. If it works for both of them, then more power to them, they will probably be good for one another.Sorry, I didn't realize it has been a year since Patsy left us. :doh: I guess Beth and John can commiserate with each other.
