Dear Diana,
I'm 34 and lost my husband last year to cancer. I have a five-year-old daughter. I had a boyfriend earlier, but we drifted apart and later I got married. We were not in touch all these years. My ex suddenly reappeared in my life and is keen on marrying me. I am confused. I don't want my child to think that I'm thinking of my happiness more than hers.

Dear Amyra,
Your child is only five years old so she is too young to understand the situation. You may have your share of apprehensions and that is justified as you have been through a lot. But this guy is someone you knew and liked. May be you were destined to be together, and now after all these years he is back. Weigh all the options and give marriage a second shot. What is happened is over, you can start life anew.
