[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's hurting and she lashed out. Don't take that personally. I'd give her space for several months.

Just as an FYI, a funeral or memorial service is not for the dead so the fact that you didn't know her mom is irrelevant. It's for those in mourning - you'd have been going to support your living friend who was mourning her mother.

Also, going forward keep in mind that all you did is text a few times. You didn't send a card, you didn't get food to her (you screwed up the address or whatever), you didn't show up. You just texted a few times. I did that much for a coworker I don't like. [/quote]

Thanks for your perspective, I hear this. I’ll give space.

I’m not sure what more I could have done other than go but I couldn’t, I had to work. I did send a card but it was with the gift. This was like within the last two weeks or so. And I guess given that I found out online I guess I’m just confused at the expectation.[/quote]

You could have CALLED her. You could have GONE to SEE her in PERSON on the weekend. You could go THIS weekend. Just because the funeral is over doesn't mean your friend is finished being sad that her mother died. [/quote]
