Hi BondServant,
I am so very sorry to hear about your loss.
I hope that maybe there are resources at your church and local community that are supporting you through this difficult time? I know that the church I currently attend has a care group for those who have lost their spouses. I hope you can find something similar.
Welcome to CC and feel free to pick any topics or threads that interest you, and then join right in.
You may also consider starting a thread like this in the Family Forum as well, in order to try to connect with more people who can relate. I have met some people who lost their spouses but did not consider themselves single, so there might be other people who can help you that may never come into the Singles Forum.
Best wishes to you and I hope you find a place within our little community.
