I dear friend of mine, now in her early 40s, lost her husband a few years ago. She was desperately sad for a long time, but held it together (just) for her Dc's.
She is about to marry a divorcee, lovely man, he had an amicable divorce and has dc's similar ages to her (although they won't live with them) and is very good with her children. I am so happy for her.
only fly in the ointment is that she doesn't want to remove her dec'd husband's ring and the new husband wants her to wear "his" ring. She is not at all materialistic or showy where jewellery is concerned. She has a simple wedding band and doesn't see why she needs a new one. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I am sure she loves new man, but she will always love the father of her Dc's too.
