robbo 828 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 All depends how close you were to the person youve lost and how big a part of your life they were. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lab 10,979 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I remember a keeper friend of mine lost his son in a car accident. I asked my grandad a while after about who was going to do the pheasants and his reply was "fucks sake it's been a week!!!". I suppose what I'm getting at is everyone is different and keeping busy and not sitting letting it fester on your mind is a good thing. My grandad is the person I have closest too and I miss just having a blether with him about hunting related stuff. But moping about doesn't bring people back but a quick glance at a photo now and again and a chat with a friend or relative about the good times you shared is always good. Chin up!!!! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thing is theres always some c**t who feels they have to remind you about it the minute you step out of your house, for about a year after we lost our kid i had strangers and people coming up to me in the street, in the supermarket,in the pub offering condolences for our loss if i wasnt so mentally distraught id have knocked their f***ing teeth in. Was bad enough being at home surrounded by constant memorys but couldnt go out either because those wankers wouldnt f**k off and leave me alone... Moved house in the end. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very hard for people on that situation. Better just saying your condolences and moving on with the conversation. Nobody wants to say something stupid in these times. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
