He always gets over it. This has happened to him so many times. Every one of them is special and irreplaceable, but he knows how to move on.
I don't know why it's a romantic idea for a girl to be 'destroyed' by losing a guy, and frankly I think Rose is too tough for that. No, she's not the #1 Positive Female Role Model from the entire run of the show, but she's come through some nasty stuff and gotten over it. I have this idea that she (and Micky and Nick, for that matter) won't be able to just leave their adventuring ways behind.
...Damn, I think I might have just invented an OT3. Um.
Similarly, the last image we have of Rose - of her crying in her mother's arms - is not meant to indicate that Rose is destroyed; rather, that she is safe. Both characters will get through their grief and be all right.She is safe, you're absolutely right - but does she actually appreciate it, do you think? Because that's not the impression I took away from that scene. Since she's trapped in another universe and, I presume, basically unreachable to us as viewers as well as to the Doctor, without seeing that she gets over it and moves on, all we're left with is an image of a distraught young woman sobbing on the beach and concluding her life is empty without the Doctor
