For those who have not experienced loss, it is hard to imagine the unbearable pain that people go through when their partner dies.
To reduce the isolation surrounding their suffering, people on Reddit have opened up about losing their spouses and the difficulty of finding love again.
While some managed to move on, with their grief being an open part of their lives with a new person, others revealed that they have not yet found a way to move forwards.
As one person writes: “I sometimes wonder if I could ever move on, if I could ever open up my heart to another love, if I could ever find someone who could understand.”
These six people have different endings to their stories, however there’s one common theme: that even in the darkest times of life, hope prevails.
