Sorry to hear this and I empathise with your situation. ‘Loss’ is a difficult emotion
I completely agree with “we don’t get to make that choice for someone else”. This shall always be true.
But if someone implies : that loving someone is just a one-time thing in life, like in a one-time use then… this is their choice …
But i’m not bound to this… and in fact i view this as very, very, limited point of view and existence.
It’s just a social construct that some people pick it up to give meaning to their existence.
Oh yeah I’m not saying it is one time use. I’m saying even if you grant the premise that it is one time use that the idea that you shouldn’t be with someone who is going to outlive you or that you’re going to outlive yourself is plain stupid.
I might not end up finding anyone else and remarrying if my wife passes away before me. Not because I’m not going to try or because I believe I can’t love anyone else. I’m just an asexual introvert and would most likely just be focused on being happy single then if I happen to meet someone I vibe with then I’d be open to seeing where it goes.
