Would you re-marry after spouse died..?

Question

What if your wife/husband died, would you re marry, if you re marry, does it mean you didn’t love your dead spouse enough to stay alone for the rest of your life? Just curious?

Answer 1

Probably not. I simply don't need another person in my life to be happy. Why complicate finances, emotions, my entire life with another person?

Answer 2

I would remarry if I fell in love again. It would totally be our decision - without outside influences.

Answer 3

Don't know. If the opportunity and desire were there, then yes. I don't think that says anything at all about your love for your current spouse.  

Answer 4

Technically, i couldn't remarry if my husband died because i would lose the military benefits that i would have.  However, if he died after leaving the military i might.  But only if i could find someone just as wonderful and special as he is and that may take a very long time.  

Answer 5

no i wouldnt

Answer 6

Good god no. I didn't even want to get married the first time! Certainly wouldn't do it again.

And no it would not mean you didn't love the dead spouse. You're entitled to move on with your life. If you find someone else so be it.

Answer 7

I would remarry.  It does not mean that your did not love your spouse.  It's just another chapter in your life.

Answer 8

of course I would remarry given the opportunity.....it has nothing to do with your love for your deceases spouse....it has everything to do with living your life

Answer 9

my husband did remarry after his first wife died..........he married me.  doesn't mean he didn't love her.  just means that life goes on.  he deserves to be happy.

Answer 10

Why on earth would I want to find someone to criticize me and tell all my bad faults to everyone we know, with hold s*x from me, but cheat with every man at work??

I might have a special Lady friend, but I will never live with another woman.

Answer 11

Yes.

Answer 12

OK...DR. LUV SAYS:

given the opportunity you should remarry... it is very unhealthy to morn the dead for en longed periods of time. Morning is apart of the healing process, but you have to continue to live your life. And not remarrying can prove to be a dumb decision...lets say u both are 30 years of age...and your wife/husband dies in some type of accident...the average life expectancy is somewhere between 55-80...if u r 30, you might have 20-40 more years on this earth...If you are telling me that you are never going to marry again, then you might want to seek counseling to aid you in handling this loss, but it is never good to dwell on the past. (I should be getting paid for this S***)

Answer 13

I'd re-marry

"til death does us part"

Answer 14

No, I wouldn't remarry, but then I've never liked anyone else anyway.  I knew when I was 2 who I wanted to marry.

I don't think there's anything wrong with remarrying.  It doesn't mean you don't love the deceased, it just means you love someone else as well.  The more grief stricken you are over your lost love, the more you need someone to come into your life to love you and comfort you and help you live again.  

Answer 15

Remember the untill death part of your vows?

Answer 16

No i would not remarry. Not that it has anything to do with love, but i would really look forward to my independence again.
