Well, Tony, all I can say is that if I had dementia and lived in a home, I would hope that my hubby would meet someone else and be happy again. I've told him this, so he knows. I am secure in his love for me and know that that will never die, and that like you with your dear wife, he would never ever abandon me, but I love him too and want him to be happy. Loneliness is a terrible thing that I wouldn't wish on anybody.

I hope your date goes well and that you make a new, good, friend.

Good luck x

I hope your date goes well and that you make a new, good, friend.

Good luck x

Dear Tony, would just like say please don't feel guilty in wanting and needing friendship now, you obviously adore your wife and that will never go away, hopefully new friendships will enhance this, well done on making this massive leap of faith, and i hope all goes well for you..if not this time..the next time.
Take care
Chris

I also wanted to say please don't just not turn up, because it may well have taken this lady a lot of courage to take this step too, just like you. If you do decide against it, perhaps you could still go, and explain to her. I'm sure she would prefer that.

But, I still say go and give it a try. It may be just what you need and something really special may come of it, who knows?

xx

Best of luck with meeting up with a new friend. And well done for making that positive move forward. Don't feel guilty, this takes nothing away from your wife, in fact it will give her a happier husband.

You have some time left
Make the most of it
Never have quilt,easy said I know
But you have needs ,just like your wife does
And regardless of the situation,they need to be met
My dad is ready to move on,he's still fairly young,73
Mum is in the 7 th year dementia and Is 67
He went on a cruise last year had a well deserved break
You deserve to have some life although you may not want to
You need to go and enjoy it.dont feel wrong ,have fun xx
