Should I finally take Carol to dinner Friday or is 3 years since Angela not enough time
i'm 68, retired NYPD, widower since Angela passed 3 years ago after 41 years married. i cook her gravy every Sunday, still wear my ring, my son (39M) says nothing wrong with moving on but it feels like something. there's a woman, Carol (65F), from the bowling league at the senior center. we've been talking almost every Tuesday for 8 months. she's sharp, makes me laugh, lost her husband too. last week she flat out asked if I wanted to grab dinner Friday, just the two of us, not league stuff. i said i'd think about it. been thinking about it all week. i took the ring off twice and put it back on both times. my daughter in law thinks its sweet and i should go. my son hasnt said much either way but i can tell it weirds him out a little, this was his mother. part of me feels like an old fool getting nervous over a dinner reservation. part of me feels like im cheating on a dead woman. Carol's waiting on an answer and i gotta call her tonight.
