5. He's probably just looking for someone to talk to, and doesn't know how to process

his grief. To him, he may feel like he needs to be intimate with a woman to share with her.

He may not know it but it's probably in both of your best interests to take it slow. His grief won't even really hit him for a few months. He's still in shock right now.

It sounds like his wife may have been on Hospice. They have bereavement counselors that are there just for this reason. Have him talk to one of them so that he can better process what he's going through.
