Re: Friend's parents - December 1st 2016, 10:57 AM

Don't worry about not knowing whether it's in the right forum or not. I've done that many times myself Do let me know if you want your thread moved though.

That's a really difficult situation, and I can only echo what's already been said. When I was losing my dad, I would have good days and bad days. Some days I just wanted someone to listen to me, even though I knew that some friends had not lost a parent, I knew they couldn't give me advice or anything, but I just wanted to talk. Other times, I was okay, but wanted to hang out with friends to take my mind off things.

I think the best thing you can do is just to continue being friends with her, supporting her and being there for her. You can ask her if there's certain things that you should avoid asking or doing, or if there are certain things that she would like you to do, in terms of support. I'm sure she'll appreciate you just being a friend in such a difficult time of her life.
