I never enjoyed being alone before marrying my first wife, with whom I spent 20 great years. I didn’t enjoy being alone after she died of breast cancer, so I remarried at 43. My second wife, also of twenty years, died five weeks ago, also from breast cancer, and I am alone again. It ain’t fun.

So very sorry for your loss of two wives. This is a great group of people who are ready to listen. I lost my husband two years ago this month on the 22nd. It’s still not easy, but I have a good family and wonderful friends to help me at my sad times. Sending a hug your way.

Interesting coincidence. I lost mine 4 years ago on the 26th of this month.
@JackPedigo Sorry Jack, seems like June is a tough month for a lot of us to get through. 
@Redheadedgammy Thank you. My birthday was less than a week earlier (Gemini) and she was alert and even hummed happy birthday. Someone made her a crown of flowers and a lot of people showed up (someone counted 66) and we had a pot luck. I know this was more about her than myself but that actually made me happy. Her death was so amazing. It was an ideal death for her but you and I know, not for us.
Sorry for your loss, it's not easy losing your loved ones

At least you had 40 good years. My late partner died quickly from a brain tumor. People would ask how long we were together and we would joke and say 10, or 12 or 15 looong years. Now I say 16 short years. Still there are 16 years of great memories.
It can suck but there can be hopes for another and/or close friends.
