The worst thing for a loving man is to lose the woman he loves. Alfie Budd experienced this the hard way. “I believe,” he reflects on himself, “that any man can completely use up his reserves of love. And at the same time waste them on one single woman. You just have to love her very much, then there will be nothing left for another woman." The emptiness that arises after loss, it seems, cannot be filled. "Because it is impossible to find a replacement for the one you call the love of your life." But life does not stand still place, and as long as a person is alive, there is always a chance to find a woman who will make up for the loss.
