gerryfuss 0 #1 March 24, 2004 This is kinda depressing but a close friend of mines father commited suicide yesterday. Not looking for vibes, really more what to say, I'm speechless. I feel really bad for her. She had just moved in with her father about two months ago. I really don't know what to say here....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ifall 0 #3 March 24, 2004 That's a really hard one. I'd say just telling her that you are there for her if she needs someone to cry to or talk to is probably plenty in that situation. Just listen. Sorry to hear about that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WrongWay 0 #6 March 24, 2004 That's awful. There's really nothing to say, just be there as a shoulder to cry on, she'll need it. You're a good friend.

crzjp20 0 #8 March 24, 2004 Ive been there to man, good friend and i found her dad. It was rough, very very rough. But i spent alot of time just letting her cry on my sholder. No words can express grief... but our love for one another can help ease the pain.-------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

ladyskydiver 0 #9 March 24, 2004 There's really not much to say. Just let her know that you're there if she needs a friend to lean on or a shoulder to cry on. And...don't be afraid to give her a hug. She may act/say she doesn't want it because she doesn't want to burst into tears, but she can really use hugs now.Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
