The loss of the spouse causes several secondary losses, such as loss of family and individual identities, and for that, it is considered a risk factor for complicated grief. Our objective was to investigate the possible specific aspects of widowing. Data collection occurred via an online questionnaire, during the new Coronavirus pandemic and the mixed design (both qualitative and quantitative) research had the participation of 93 individuals. The loss of the spouse was considered the worst loss experienced by the participants. Loneliness, routine, bureaucracy, and rituals were the main difficulties, while spirituality, family, and work were mentioned as protective factors. Signs of complicated grief were associated with age and time since the death of the partner. There was no significant difference between gender nor between the type of death. The manifestations of widowing are similar to other forms of bereavement, but there are specifications that should be taken into consideration by professionals in order to promote quality of life.
