[quote=Anonymous]Do NOT text about it!! It sounds like you two are not particularly close if you just now are noticing her absence and didn’t know the marriage was in trouble.  I am sure she has been reaching out to closer friends/family for any support she needs. I have a friend who disclosed her divorce along the same lines - casually mentioning that her husband closed on his new place and the kids were picking out new beds etc. She’s not the type to want to make a big announcement and have all eyes on her and then have to answer questions or explain the store when she clearly didn’t want to go into it. It will put your friend in an awkward position to text her and seems like you’re digging for details/gossip. If you hang out one on one and she brings it up, that’s when you can express sympathy I guess. For all you know, she is thrilled the marriage is over!

Totally different from expressing sympathy over death/illness or something objectively sad, even to someone you’re not close with. [/quote]
