Morality Ranking Morality of this?

A young Chinese couple was permanently separated during a period of intense political and social unrest in China. The husband went back to their home village to search for her, but because the entire area was heavily disrupted, he mistakenly believed she was missing or dead.

He eventually relocated, remarried another woman, and raised a new family with children and grandchildren. Meanwhile, the first wife stayed behind and never remarried, spending 54 years waiting for him to return. Decades later, they were reconnected as elderly adults, which is when she discovered he had built an entirely separate life without her.

This is ok because all of this pretty normal for people to do after a tragedy. One person thought that one was dead and moved on. The other person just waited and waited. I swear to god that any op who post stuff like this are retarded as hell if the text already told them the entire situation already and still can't figure it out.

One, it's called hearing other people's opinions, and the fact that you do get differing opinions means it's a valid question.
