That was the case for Pakistan resident [Huma Mobin](https://www.facebook.com/humamobin?fref=ts), whose husband, Arsalaan Sever Butt,[ didn’t get a visa in time](https://www.buzzfeed.com/sahilrizwan/better-than-the-follow-me-to-couple-tbh?utm%5Fterm=.xopDXwK9m7#.hxxYN1k2Eb) to attend their second honeymoon trip to Greece. She thought of canceling the trip entirely, but it was non-refundable, so she found a different solution. Mobin ended up going on the trip with her in-laws, and she admits that wasn’t happy about it at first. “I cried the first night on my mother-in-law’s shoulder, but she told me to make the best of it,” she [told BuzzFeed](https://www.buzzfeed.com/sahilrizwan/better-than-the-follow-me-to-couple-tbh?utm%5Fterm=.xopDXwK9m7#.hxxYN1k2Eb). In the end, she found the silver lining in the form of a hilarious photo collection. Mobin posted an [album of photos on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/humamobin/posts/10156938387080478) that show her seeing the Grecian sights while leaving a space for her husband. Mobin also lost her phone toward the end of the trip, so she made another space for her other missing love: The album has been shared over 300 times as of Monday morning.
