This thread could be in British PA Fiction or even the practical Surviving section.
The convention of a PA story is that boy and girl get together and go through trauma together to end up living happily ever after (?).Of course propinquity would work its magic in many cases but I wonder how many instances of partnering up would be a case of making the best of it with the hope of relative compatability and happiness, seasoned with a touch of guilt for a dead spouse etc. The Walking Dead was brave enough to have a faltering marriage, a lover and a return.

One book that does deal with the relationship question and necessary compromises is Only Lovers Left Alive by Dave Wallis. Nit too much of a spoiler that two in love settle for other people for the group's unity.
