I think i'm falling for her...
My wife for 16 years died of breast cancer just last year. She left me with no child but she has a daughter who's now 20 years old. She's beautiful, slender, and everything a man dream of a woman!
Lately, I find myself slowly being drawn to her until I finally realized that I am actually loving her...not just a love for a daughter but even more than that! I stumble upon this website and I got courage to open my feelings. This is the first time that I let my feelings known. I am scared of myself. I have had past relationships before but this is different. I let her stay on a dorm while she's studying because I don't know what am I going to do if we live in the same house. I visit her and checks her needs almost everyday but I feel bad whenever I don't get to see her. I hate myself for feeling like this! She has no interest in boys yet because she wanted to finish her studies. She's in Psychology and I think somehow she can understand my feelings. I haven't opened up with her because I fear that she might distance herself from me.
Now we're planning to live together in the same house and I am so excited but scared at the same time. Is it okay to fall in love with her at this point? Her mom is already dead, we didn't had kids... and by the way, I let my stepdaughter use my last name since she was in her elementary... I am 42 now and she's 20... please give me advise... I am as well as confused! Thanks so much for those who will post their opinions.
