A character with a deceased LoveInterest runs into someone who causes an immediate flashback memory of his/her former love. The character will often look startled, then say "Sorry, for a moment you reminded me of someone I once knew". The two easily form a connection, foreshadowing a possible future relationship, though one haunted by the tragic end of the previous romance.
