[quote=Anonymous]I would respect her wishes. She was able to articulate them so that she could spare herself the grief of feeling like she has to make other people feel better about her tragedy. Even though it's not what you would want, or even though it feels like your'e not demonstrating that you're a good friend, it's about what she wants. Don't make it about you. My sister and I are very opposite in grief. My heart opens up and I want to connect with people and feel their support. She feels adrift and angry and hates when people say thoughtless things like "it's all God's plan." The key to being a good friend is understanding what a person actually wants and needs.[/quote]
