need help on what to do regarding moving on with my life, im 35 and have 5 kids my husband commited suicide about a year ago and i'm confused about what to do with a relationship. i started getting close to my husbands brother after my husband passed, i was married for 15 years. my husbands brother says he loves me and wants to help take care of me and my kids, all my kids love him but my 12 year old hates that i want to be with him, he is trying to take over the "dad" role since his dad is gone, he is very protecive of me and doesn't want me to date anyone. i have done everything imaginable to help him thru losing his dad he just doesn't understand that i need to move on with my life and now i'm not sure how to handle it. should i continue the relationship or let it go for the sake of my son? i thought it would be easier for him to let someone in my life that he has been around and knows that they love him but it just seems impossible to make him happy unless i am alone

Right the worst possible thing you could do is go with his brother, after only a year. I understamd that you both wil naturally get along so well after thiss tragedy, but you need love not relationship love from your husband's brother. I would see it as the ultimate betrayal and be angry like your son.
