CeeJay,
Are you sure you were not entitled to any Social Security at the time of your husband's passing away and you have to wait until you are 62?
One of my friends was killed in a store robbery many years ago. His two sons (6 and 8) were paid monthly benefits until they got to college. His widow found a boyfriend and has continued living with him for about 27 years now - never married. I don't know if this was soley because SS benefits would stop for the boys if she remarried or if she was also getting SS benefits.
I know several people here in The Villages living together but not married for reasons of alimony, pensions, or Social Security benefits.
