It actually depends on the individual, because I know some won't bother to marry again, after all they have issue already and they felt their children will be there for them as companion now, while for some especially some girl, will just say.....THANK GOD THIS USELESS MAN DON DIE AT LAST, I FIT MARRY THAT MY BF NOW.....some girls/women bad o

Hello poster,
If ur post is about u, I am so sorry for your loss. It is sad enough to imagine wat you are going through right now.
You are probably craving companionship now n I tell u, it isnt wrong in anyway. The problem now is u might fall for the wrong kind of woman. Please start by going on dates. Talk and laugh with nice women. Let a relationship build. Please dont rush into anything. If you have kids, let them know u want d best for them.
It would be well.
God cares for His own.

bellong: How soon depends on YOU alone. Relative to how soon you get over the loss of your spouse.

There is no universal law on how soon one can remarry after the demise of a spouse.

It all depends on how much in love you where with him/her....4 someone whom u truely loved, a year or 2 isn't too much to mourn him...if the individual is emotionally very strong,he/she might move on earlier than that
Re: How Soon After The Death Of A Spouse To Start A New Relationship? by Fejok01(f): 6:19am On Jul 25, 2014
There is no fixed time. But you need to be ready emotionally again before going into another relationship. It's really very tough. May God help you.

coogar:

men generally move on quicker. no time for recrimination or mourning for a year. what's done is done. within 4 weeks, a man is ready to put the incident behind him.

Re: How Soon After The Death Of A Spouse To Start A New Relationship? by popson1st: 8:18am On Jul 25, 2014
As soon as possible, depending on the orientation and cultural believe of the person. When a spouse die, the marriage bond has been broken and the person is free to remarry instantly. But culturally, the person is expected to take some time to mourn. Holy book says..Till death do us part but didnt give a time frame to get along with another person. Once the spouse is dead, the bond has been broken and the person is free to move on, instantly or later, depending on what he/she believes.
Re: How Soon After The Death Of A Spouse To Start A New Relationship? by Amhappy(f): 8:23am On Jul 25, 2014
@OP sorry for your loss. You have to let the mourning time elapse. Every community have theirs, 6months/1year in most cases. If you marry before the mourning period ends,you just started a war that will last your life time(people will believe you killed ur spouse,including ur kids). After that you are free to marry. It now depends on if you are ready to move on. Make sure you consider your kids before you take this leap. Let your new lady be someone who will love your children as hers. And agree with ur new wife about the no of children that will be added to the ones you already have. Pls go for a matured and older lady if you dont want extra babies or want only one(hv seen this cause a lot of problems).
My granddad never remarried and his 8kids grew up without a mother.I wish you all the best.

Hian! I know someone that started marriage arrangement the week the wife was buried. True life story. Men move on faster than women. Their eXcuse is usually the children
berem: if you had said 4months,that's considerable. 4weeks is a no no.

It depends on some factors like:

1. The situation that surrounds the death of the person
2. Your relationship with your spouse family
3. The type of bond that existed between the 2 of you

An elderly man, who lost her daughter, once shared his ordeal with me. The daughter and her hubby lived in the UK with their kids. few months after the death of the lady, her family travelled from Nigeria to pay the man a condolence visit and they met another woman. They immediately made a fresh arrangements to relocate from the house.

He curses the man every time that he killed his daughter cos he wanted to bring in another woman. that might not be true you know

Another scenario is that the deceased father told the living spouse only 21 days after the death of the wife that we know you loved your wife, the incident has happened, just move on with your life and find a new solace. We will say this is a good advice cos it didn't happen to us. hmmmn

I think we should give some time before going into another marriage. No specific time though but and reasonable time. The deceased family lost a child, a family member. Their feelings need to be respected.

They do no have any say over the kids but some families might request you allow the kids stay with them while you sponsor their programs. If this is the case and you don't have an alternative like ur mum or a family member will be with you to take care of then, then you will have to allow that and plan how to return them later

armyofone: A chic is showing interest now huh?

Focus on your kids if children are involved. Make sure they are well settled and adjusted to the new life before you bring in another lady.

Btw, don't forget to barber your head and wear black for a long time.

TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS. 1 Six hours after her Rigor mortis,weep no more and fuckq a prostitute. 2 The next day meet a new girl fuckq her and break her heart before your spouse wake keeping 3 immediately after she's six feet in the ground, sue her parents and take your bride price back. 6 use the money to pay for the bride price of the next girl, then fuckq her and keep on fuckqing until the cycle repeats it self *wink*. But if you love her so much, do this as do this to your next spouse. Because Life is a B!tch and death is her sister. Note that this instruction is for men but if you are a lady...#eye one two four Q#
