it's not op's fault but they're being unnecessarily vicious towards someone who was clearly trying to do something nice. if the person didn't care about wanting to try to make op feel better, they would just have scrolled past the post and not responded at all. it may not have been a helpful response but the fact that they took the time to make an effort should count for something.

"They never saw their mistake, nor apologies for such comment without empathy"

You sweet summer child. Please go get an adult to monitor your internet usage.

At worst, that's uncharitable. Maybe a little dramatic. Vicious would be characterizing the person as malicious. And even then, OP makes no mention of confronting the person or attempting to hurt their reputation. They're literally just expressing an opinion, anonymously in a secret, about an incident they found hurtful.

OP: And that's what I wanted to do, how I want to enjoy that show back without my grief remember me that moment. What they did cannot be undone, but I can love the show once again, right?

MTE. This person clearly meant well or they wouldn't have said anything at all. It's strange to me that OP seems to think they ought to have gotten an apology, when it seems pretty clear that this person has no idea that their comment was not in fact received as the small grain of comfort they intended it to be.

yeah, i just can't understand being upset with someone who was making a genuine attempt to make me feel better. the attempt itself might have fallen flat but the fact that they cared enough to take the time out of their day to try at all when it would have been easier for them to scroll right on by without saying anything would mean a lot to me. but maybe i'm just weird.

Having gone through both the (initial) grieving process and witnessed a ton of violence in the last few years, I can say that attempts to make people feel better tend to ignore what the grieving person actually needs to do in order to feel any measure of relief. For us, someone trying to make us feel better delays our work on dealing with the pain on our own terms. We don't often know that's the case I the midst of it, at least not consciously. After some time, this reasoning becomes more obvious.

OP didn't say anything about an apology, just that it privately made them feel worse. People are allowed to have negative emotions, good lord.
