Looks like a gentleman married his dead girlfriend. The article asks if he is a hopeless romantic or a macabre publicity hound. Now, I am all for the type of love that invokes sunsets and rainbows, But this is a bit much.
They were planning to get married and she died in a car accident before it could happen. The Facebook page has photos of them together when she was alive and everything.
Seems genuine, and I'm sure our western eyes view death and the event different than their culture.
I have mixed feeling about this. On one hand I feel that his love for this woman was so deep that it went beyond death, but on the other hand I feel he lost his mind. He didn't really "marry" her as she was already gone. God bless her soul, and be with him in such a difficult time.
Often when people lose a loved one they aren't thinking or reacting as they normally would. It's common to make decisions that serve their grief moreso than logic. To everyone around them it seems bizarre, but for them it's part of the coping process. Is it strange, sure, but until he has a chance to get through the grieving process it may give him some level of comfort. It's not like he's going to be toting the corpse around to restaurants and shopping malls or sitting on the couch watching American Idol together.
This reminds me of people whose pets die and they bring them to a taxidermist to have them stuffed. To the rest of us it's insane, creepy, over the top etc., but to the bereaved, it's part of the healing process and they aren't quite ready to let go. I suppose if you can go on about your life in a healthy manner and it isn't huring anyone, there's no harm. Everyone copes differently.
Maybe he saw snow white and thought she could wake up to live in an fairytale
