Living in the shadow

I have come to realise in my marriage that my husband is trying to recreate
what he had with his wife of 30 years who died a few years ago, with me.
I'm interested in finding out if there are men and/or women here trying to
recreate what the had with their spouses rather than starting a brand new
relationship?

Any tips on dealing with this situation.

For me I'd never try and recreate a previous relationship

I'm not sure he's trying to 'recreate' what he had, he's probably just wanting to continue on as he knows best.
I'd try actually talking to him, providing him with kind feedback of what/how he could change. And say what you want too?
Or just start again on IE ?!

Black gent….

Considering you are divorced…did you not ask your ex wife the same question?

Are you sure that he is trying to recreate a relationship or just his happy actions. For example he may enjoy the plunge pool after a sauna as he fid with his wife and discusses it with you but this is something that he may have enjoyed or before he married. It may be something that is independent of his first wife.

Is it such a hard thing to make your husband happy??

And what are you trying to recreate by being on IE?
Your previous divorce proceedings!

Why don’t you ask him. None will have a better answer than he will

For 30 years I have just been with my wife .. I don’t think I would try to recreate the mess I have made of that ..

If he’s trying to add good bits . Say yes please .. but hopefully it’s not too stepford wives for you

I agree with Ferrari. It's one for a counsellor. Some of the advice here comes across as very "mumsnetty".
