Ridiculous things people say on bereavement

Reminds me of my former boss.
My sister passed, then my mom passed and he's immediately all "I'm going to find you a boyfriend so you can settle down and start a family."
Because, yeah, that's #1 on my list of concerns. 🙄

I hate how they come up to you and just look.....like your appearance tells them how you feel. Good friend of mine, 2 weeks after my wife passed. Looks me up and down and says "Well, you seem to be handling it pretty good". My response was that I was doing the best I knew how.

He wasn't being mean, he wasn't being snide....he was just being a friend with no clue what to say and wanting to say something. He knew as soon as he said it how stupid it was and was smart enough to give me a hug and shut up.

People can be such buffoons. I find that saying anything beyond I'm sorry and I'm here for you in unnecessary

3 weeks after my guy died.... "so, you're ready to find a new boyfriend then!"

Unfortunately I have nothing funny to say, but I found people to be patronising or stayed away from me altogether. It was a horrendous experience and it took a break from everything to make things better. Words don't mean a thing.

Some people cannot emphasis with loss, so try and deal with in in (bad) humour.
