I am married to a wonderful woman, who I love with all my heart. I was previously married for 14 years to a woman who I also loved with all my heart. My situation is this: I made a promise to be buried along side my previous wife. We bought two plots together just before she died from cancer. Then later on, I met "Susan", we fell in love, and are now married. We love each other very much, and she wants us to be buried together. But, I made a promise to my deceased wife, and I want to be buried along side of her. Am I being selfish? Is my wife being selfish? What should I do? I would appreciate any feed back. Thank you.

Is it possible for you to purchase a plot where you would be between both of your wifes?

My dad is in the same predicament. My mom was the "love of his life." She was his HS sweetheart,e tc. After 13 years of marriage, she died from breast cancer (very young). He met and married my stepmom, and they have now been married longer than my parents were...anyhow, he loves them both, in different ways. He often jokes of my step mom being burried next to my mom, and he'll just get cremated... he's also though about putting their coffins on top of one another.... I don't know, I guess it's all pretty morbid to think about.

That is really a tough one.<p>Did you have children with one, and not the other? <p>Were you married for a much longer period of time to one?
