Your description reminds me of the ending of Joe Haldeman's "Forever Wars"
(a VERY good book!), in which (due to the LONG trips involved) if you ever
got separated from someone you could never be rejoined (practically speaking)
in common times again.

There is also a trick ending here, which I will not spoil.
