Losing a love one from death is no excuse to be an asshole.

Sorry if it sounds cruel but grieving doesn’t give you a free pass of being rude or being an asshole.

I have a guy friend that lost his younger sister last year and we have given him excuses for acting out but he would cuss at people and be rude. He called him out for his rudeness and told him to get out if he’s going to be an asshole. Look I am very sorry for his loss but it doesn’t excuse him for being a jerk.
I empathize with him and I understand he’s still grieving but being rude to people for no reason isn’t an excuse.

@ElizabethBabe1994 Yes, it IS the truth. I think what they're looking for is sympathy and maybe pity. It may be their way of grieving. It could also be a way of capitalizing on a circumstance to gain that pity and attention. I think there are a lot more people inflicted with Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy than people think.

The acting out should be a limited phase of the grieving; and providing social feedback probably helps prevent us from becoming morose.

I think you need to change the one he to we if this is to make sense.
