World War Two
Published 9 Nov 2021

With men away at the front, couples have to separate and manage the struggle of war on their own. For women who stay at home, this is not any easier than for the man: worry, longing, loneliness, meaningless sex, the temptation of falling in love with others – it is an emotional rollercoaster.

From the comments:

World War Two
37 minutes ago (edited)
This war is full of hate, hate of your neighbor, hate of a people, hate of a leader, hate of an ideology. It is particularly tragic that among the things assaulted by this hate was love, and that millions of people from around the world were ripped away from those they loved so dearly. This was especially case for the millions of young men and women who were sent into combat and killed in this war, just when they were beginning to find their one true love. To reflect on this tragedy we ask you: have you ever been in love?
