    Meh. That's what virgins and those who have no inkling of real life think.

    I told my wife if I died, I expect her to re-marry (hopefully someone filthy rich) and not dwell on memories of me. Live a full life for the sake of the kids. They don't deserve to be without a father.

    I've had my share of hardships but I do not want to have a step father/mother. I don't need a "replacement" parent. And besides nobody remarries in our family and so far it has worked well. Mas mahirap for the one left behind but less complicated.

    OT: Sis, if that's your belief,- (and related to your other thread), the more that you should work hard in being self-reliant (profitable and stable job or business). You have your wings,- fly high and cast your own shadow.

    It's a tough one but that's how we have to be nowadays....

    if you dont mind extra baggage, then go ahead...

    my dad remarried when my mom died, i was 8 yrs old at that time..
    i can say it was difficult for my step mom to raise 3 stubborn boys and they are not even her own kids. it was probably the love between her and my dad that kept them together..true love...

    she never regret marrying a widow and she can only say she was very lucky.. we grew up, got good jobs and supported our your half sisters.. and we helped my step mom whenever she needed help.. she introduce us as her sons.... and we call her our NANAY...

    Yes, keeping it simple is practical. It's one reason why I havent entertained single moms yet either. I presume that you will consider taking the resonsibility of raising his children as your own, as this is one of the things which will complicate the relationship.

    I do not believe in remarrying because my heart will forever belong to the one that I will marry. If I become a widow early then I would just have to work doubly hard to raise my children alone.

    Beliefs and imaginations can change. Many single mom first believe they found true love with the guy who eventually left them. They also never imagined themselves becoming a single mom.

    There's a whole world of difference between a single mom who is separated or was left by her huband from a single mom who was widowed. It's a tale of two wives. I say this because widows (in general) loved their husbands until the end and their husbands loved them until death - In that situation I won't consider remarrying.

    Yes, I agree. For widows who truly loved their partners (I cant generalize that they all did), it might be harder conceptualizing the thought of loving someone else, but it isnt impossible.

    On the other hand, the opposite spectrum also exists. Some single moms out of wedlock would not marry because of the trauma they got from their guy. They wouldnt want to repeat it anymore.

    In either case, The presence of the right person and conditions can help the stage.

    Super Nakakaturn on kaya sa girls yung sila lng maganda at ***y sa mata ng bf nila. And the gesture is immediately rewarded pag ganun.

    Remember, a persons attutude right now is due to their past experiences and upbringing. No one is born pure and everyone commit mistakes.

    Which made me wonder, Bakit nga pag yung mga single mom medyo challenging na makahanap ng partner?

    Pag yung guy naman ang may anak na madalas nagiging asset pa nila yun.
