Losing a spouse suddenly can be one of the hardest things you’ll ever deal with. The grief can be overwhelming, as can the reality that you need to start over, without the person who you’re used to having by your side. Some people vow to never remarry, or even get into another relationship again, after experiencing the death of a partner.
This was the case for one 44-year-old woman whose husband of more than 20 years died in a car accident. She never intended to meet another romantic partner, but life had other plans. In a few months time, she’ll be eloping with her fiance. The problem is, he’s insisting that she remove her ring finger tattoo before then. It’s one she had done with her late husband, and she doesn’t want to erase that memory forever. Bored Panda reached out to Rosalinda Randall to hear what advice she has.
