[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m one of those people who am the opposite of OP- I’m a private person and when I’ve lost people close to me I’d rather no one acknowledge it, I like to grieve in private. Everyone handles loss differently. I think OP is projecting her preferences and holding a grudge against her friends who may feel differently than OP about their losses. Not everyone appreciates or needs the same things. OP I know it’s hard but I think your disappointment is misdirected grief. [/quote] Not acknowledging an old friends loss, even in some small way such as with a sympathy card or a modest donation, shows a lack of manners and good breeding and as I get older, I realize how important being raised well is to me. I don’t mean wealthy, but with a fair amount of decency and thoughtfulness for others. It seems our society has devolved into chaos in so many ways, and poor behavior is excused [/quote]
