ADVICE NEEDED; Just learned she's a widow, should I tell her I love her (reprise)?

wait a while longer to tell her...just to be safe and sure. good luck. and Morty what on earth does her age have to do with it? people of all ages who lost someone they love will be fragile at some point. its an individual thing not an age thing.

I wouldn't be in too much of a hurry to tell your you love her. I would let her know that you are interested in getting to know her better and see where this leads. She needs time to mourn the loss of her late husband.

If you find that you are in love with her, the time/space you allow her will make that love grow even deeper.

Should i? Yes. Grief can last 6 mo to 6 years

you write as you truly care and are an emotionally substantial man.
Don't rush be patient

yes, love is the greatest gift you can share
obviously, she widowed needs patience. Time love and tenderness after loss

romance during great sadness would be emotionally confusing so be patient

excellent that she wants to see you!!
Tender loving care companionship

I just want to cry for this woman, but it sounds like she has found a great friend and very possibly more in you. just keep doing what you are doing and build a solid relationship with her, let her know you care through actions rather than words for the moment.

If you love her, don't keep it in your heart and let her know.

Take it from one who knows. If she has just been a widow for 6 months, she has not had a time to grieve and what she does not need is pressure. You should give her support and your company but don't be trying to make moves on her. When she is ready, she will let you know. If you are in a hurry to get hooked up with someone it would be kinder for you to move on because she is still fragile and she may need you for the wrong reason.
Give her at least one year. Just be a friend. Don't reveal any feelings because that is a form of pressure. Your being afraid of being hurt is about you. . .Wrong reason. If you provide strong non threatening support, she will probably fall in love with you.

i think 6 months is way too soon after being widowed to start dating again...there is no way she could have worked through all the issues in that short of a period of time
seems to be she is asking for your friendship, that is why she likes talking to you on the phone. that could also explain why she canceled on you twice, she probably detected you were interested in more than friends
and you mentioned that she is afraid of entering a relationship and she may feel that way for some time
i think the best thing to do is just try to be her friend for now, once she starts processing everything she may grow to care about you more than a friend as well.
the best advice i can give you is to not continue to ask her on dates because you run the risk of making her feel pressured and she has clearly let you know she is fearful
when you make plans to spend time together make sure you make it clear to her that its a friendship thing not a date
and for gods sake do not start a physical relationship with this woman even if it is her idea, this will only confuse things
now, if you don't think you can do this because you have feelings for her, maybe you should just let it end now
this is a situation i know alto about
