If you were engaged to someone for 3 years and he was killed in Iraq. Do you think it would be ok to start dating again after a year? I am ready to date again but I don't want to be disrespectful to his family and friends to start dating already. I am 24 years old if that has any bearing over the matter.

i think that's it's ok to date again, his family and friends will understand, you can't live your life alone, expecially when you want someone to hold and love you...........

My fiance was killed in iraq a few years back so I know how you feel. I waited 7 months before I started dating so I think a year is more than plenty time for his family to be ok with you dating again. I would maybe mention it to them first before you go ahead and do it and let them know that even though you loved their son you believe it is time for you to find someone who is here to love you now. Talk it over with his family and god luck may god bless you.

If you are ready to date again, then I would say go ahead carefully. It is not disrestpectful to his family. However, you may want to talk to them about it first, so they do not feel that you are hiding it from them. Tell them that you miss him very much, but need need to move on with your life. It will be painful. But could be very worth it.

You need time to grieve and when it feels right, it feels right. You might find you start dating and its just too much, and you "leave teh dating scene". But on the otherhand, your fiance will allways have a special place in your heart no doubt.
Good luck.

You are in a hard place, IF you feel that you are ready to attempt loving someone else, then ask yourself what your fiancee would want you to do... be alone and sad, or find love and be happy again. I hope this helps.

You are the best judge of when you are ready to resume you social life. His family should be happy for you, if they really want the best for you, not clinging to a memory. Please go and have a happy life best of luck

If you're ready, you're ready. One year sounds like enough to me. My cousin's wife died and he got remarried after 1 year.

He's dead and gone for a year already. Please carry on with your life! You are still young, so don't think his parents expect you to stop living your life. Do you think he would want you to stop as well?
