My husband and I both lost our first spouses (of 30 and 35 years) within 3 months of each other. He was in MN, I was in Georgia. We met on a Grief Recovery Site on the internet. We emailed, chatted, phoned for 4 months before we ever met in person. We met in person, were married 2 months later and have been married 10 years. (I always say the Man upstairs just plopped him in front of me!) We tell folks we've been married for 75 years, just not to each other (LOL)! That gets some strange looks!
