Scenario

When partners grieve differently and spiritually drift apart

My partner and I both lost our mothers this year and we're grieving completely differently - I want to talk about death and meaning while they want to focus on practical matters and moving forward. We're starting to feel like strangers to each other in the most important conversations.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared loss becomes a source of isolation when two people's ways of processing pain create distance rather than connection.
