Widowed with a 7mo. baby girl at age 22... it's enough to make me laugh, sometimes...and enough to make an interested guy turn and run.
I've spent the last year and a half reading blogs/posts/etc. for and about young widows, but they're usually talking early forties to fifties... Most of the advice says, yep, young guys aren't looking for a single mom. Others say, yep "widow" is an intimidating word. What to do when all are combined, because, seriously I'm still a 24 year old woman with a lot of life left!
How much do you reveal up front? Bare-bones of it all? More? I definitely don't want anyone who can't handle it...but that's part of the problem. "It" shouldn't be such a big deal. Unexpected things do happen, and no one is invincible...maybe that's the problem. Guys, young ones especially, don't like to face their mortality... I don't know, but it is really frustrating to not even know where to start. I'm just curious if there is anyone else with some advice or experience that at least gives me some context/idea about what goes through a guys head...
