Went on a lunch date the other day. The guy was super sweet, but over the course of our conversation, he told me that his wife died "not that long ago". He told me it was a car accident. I googled it when I got home and found out that this was in the beginning of AUGUST!! Isn't that kind of soon to be dating?

I have NO experience with this sort of thing so I thought I'd ask you all what you think.

August was 5 months ago. I wouldn't call it a long time to get over the wife but she didn't die yesterday either.

Some people bounce back quicker than others.
