I agree with 109.1.34.89.212. It was never specificed how long they had been together. It could have been over a hundred years, and in all that time he most likely grew reliant on her to make him happy. And since Didyme loved him back, we can assume that HIS happiness gave HER happiness, and it onl made him even happier. Continue this cycle for a hundredish years, and you have one very happy couple. So when Marcus was deprived of Didyme, it's only natural that after all that time he went into a state of depression. Do not underestimate the power of time. They weren't like ordinary couples who have their fights and dark moments. They were constantly happy. And without Didyme, even if Marcus DID move on he would never ever feel the same level of happiness than when he had been wit Didyme ever again, simply because of the fact that it's IMPOSSIBLE to gain such a high happiness level without being in loev with a happiness-increasing vampire. He could recover, but it's only natural that he would stay depressed for a much longer time to come. And after being deprived of something you had been reliant on like a drug for hundreds of years, you might probably want to commit suicide too. Vampires aren't humans, they have their own way, and we can only interpret what goes on in their ancient heads.
