Of course it’s all possible.

Oh she was on her feet just fine, losing her husband was hard in terms of feelings of losing her love, but not in terms of other things, it didn’t kick her of her feet or caused financial distress. It did not.

I mean you don’t need to be married to stand on your own two feet. I am just saying that if you want to be married again it’s certainly possible. At 27 you can’t possibly think that’s not attainable.

My ex and I were also divorced quite young, we are better co parents and friends than we were spouses, not a good match. We went on happily marrying other people eventually. Life doesn’t end with divorce. There is also no harm in being single. I was single quite a bit in between, many years and that suited me really well.

Also many people claim that being married is better financially yet many married people live in poverty and struggle paying their bills while single ones are enjoying their life (with kids or no kids). I don’t see how marriage is a solution to poverty at all. I was single most of my life and I did just great. I saved enough for retirement and I’d do just fine if I never married again. I married my second husband because he is a wonderful person and a great match for me but otherwise I am on my two feet all the same if I am single or married

You can have a great life regardless what happens next. Best wishes on your journey
Thanks for this!
