'Your granddaughter’s boyfriend is a mama’s boy.'
My adult granddaughter, “Lola,” is in a two-year relationship with a wonderful young man and has been anticipating a proposal. During a conversation, he mentioned he would not propose to her until he has introduced her to his parents, who live in another state.
He says his mother wants him to marry a woman who has never been married or divorced and who has not had a child. Lola is divorced and has a young son. This seems to her to be a no-win situation if he won’t propose until she’s met his parents, but he lacks the courage to introduce her to them. What is my granddaughter to do? She’s so unhappy and disappointed.Your granddaughter’s boyfriend is a mama’s boy. The decision of whom to marry should be his, not his mother’s.
I am a widow now. My second husband was like me, dumped by his first wife, and we cobbled a life together as best we could. My problem is that I can’t stop longing for my first husband. Logically, I know we’ll never be together, even if he were free from his marriage to the “other woman.” How does one ever get beyond the grief from a marriage that made me feel happy, safe and loved? Do others suffer for decades? I can’t seem to move past the sadness, but would like to be free of these feelings before I pass away.You are stuck in a rut of your own making, grieving the loss of your first marriage because there’s nothing else going on in your life to distract you. If you want to get beyond this, start finding other things to occupy your time and your thoughts.
