Come on, the woman is living is an unreal world, which gets reinforced by people going along with her notion is there is still a "we". If she is to have a life, she needs to come to terms with the loss of her husband. I think Travis should try another profession when he says “I don’t see anything wrong”.

In a sense there's nothing wrong with that, as long as it doesn't go too far. There's definitely still a "we" there. Unless she speaks about her husband in the present tense, such as "We went to a movie yesterday," I don't see anything wrong.

Not that Mrs. W. doesn't know that she is a widow, obviously she does, But she should be spending her time and money on coming to terms with her situation, and instead she is gallivanting in the Mediterranean sunshine. The longer she delays, the harder she will fall. How very sad!
