When widowed friends struggle to maintain connection

Three of us in our friend group are all widowed now and we keep trying to do the same things we used to do as couples, but everything feels hollow and forced. We all miss our old life but we also know we need to figure out how to be friends in this new reality where we're all alone.

What we've seen

Loss has changed the fundamental chemistry of your friendship, and you're learning to love each other across the absence of who used to be there.
