Widow Dating – Find love again with eharmony

It takes courage to begin dating again after a beloved spouse has passed away. Meeting people in the traditional way can be difficult, and navigating the often confusing world of widow dating websites can be an experience filled with frustration.

A unique dating experience the second time around

At eharmony, we match people based on compatibility, rather than having you scroll through pages and pages of random profiles as you would on other dating sites. You fill out our free questionnaire, and our Compatibility Matching System™ selects a core group of members whose beliefs, values and personality traits align with your own. You can choose to begin communicating with those people when it feels right, and you can utilise our Guided Communication tools to ensure you’re moving at a pace that’s right for you.

Beginning again

The truth is that there’s no set “right time” to begin dating again. Every person is unique, and while you’ll never truly stop grieving your loss, there may come a time when you’re ready to date again. And when you are, you’ll find that there are many people out there who are experiencing what you’re going through, or who are sensitive to the difficulties you’re facing.

Dating a widow or widower

Dating a widow(er) can be a challenge. Patience and sensitivity are important when it comes to dating someone who has lost a partner. Know that it takes time to heal from that loss, and allow them to grieve in whatever way they feel they need to. If you’ve found the right person, and the relationship is based on a feeling of mutual respect, compatibility and trust, you’ll be able to weather the challenges that come with dating.

The eharmony difference

Some dating services tend to provide you with unrealistic expectations about what to expect when it comes to dating after losing a loved one. At eharmony, we ask you questions about who you are and what you’re looking for in a potential mate, we use this information to find matches who are truly compatible. You can be your truly authentic self – we get to know our members at a core level, going deeper than other dating sites to help build a strong, healthy relationship.
Learning to love again can be hard, but finding someone to love shouldn’t be. Register with eharmony today for to review your matches for free, and begin dating again with eharmony.
