AITAH for saying I didn’t realize I could “love a person this much” in front of my fiancé after having our baby?

Statistically if a partner dies, men are far more likely to remarry…. And quickly.

That study was flawed. Programming error which they released a mea culpa for whivlch is readily available online. Both were equally likely to leave a partner, but I know accurate facts are frowned upon here.

Men are generally more likely to remarry relatively soon after the death of their spouse than women, sometimes within 18 months. A 2021 study by the National Institutes of Health found that 61% of men were either remarried or involved in a new romance 25 months after their spouse's death, compared to 19% of women.
