Dating Advice on Whether Flings are Harmless Fun or Dangerous Territory?
Speaking as someone who lost a child, I would like to agree with Amy – I have to remind my friends and family that people are entitled to their own battles and pain and crap without having to measure it against mine.
But I’d have to disagree about getting phone calls, cards, letters on anniversaries attached to my daughter’s death – it’s been five years this month, and I’m almost back to sea level. I’d really rather not spend that day on the phone with various friends and relatives checking in or checking up on me. What if I’m actually able to have a normal day and not be focused on it? But to chat about YOUR crap? Oh heck yeah. Sometimes it’s a relief to be a sounding board to some normal sh*t, rather than the unrelenting kind. It’s also nice to feel like I can offer some support back to try and repay that which I’ve received in the last few years.

I’ve found it can be helpful, in a way, to be alone in a crowd – take a book and some music to a coffee shop; go for a walk; heck, stop in the neighborhood pub and have a couple and people-watch. You don’t have to interact with anyone, but just people-watching can take some of the edge off. Best of luck when the next wave hits you.
