My parents are dead. One of them died in front of me, while I literally felt her pulse fade. I hated, absolutely hated, the empty, pitying rounds of "sorry for your loss" that I was treated to. It did not make me feel any fucking better! It made me feel like I was being patted on the head and then sent on my way, because it's not like anyone actually wanted to hear about what I was feeling. You clearly would have joined in on that, but I wouldn't have decided that you were some sort of awful person for it, any more than I thought it of anyone else. I know they were uncomfortable, and they meant well, and were doing their best.

This thread is so maddening. It's everyone assuming that because they either experience or think they'll experience grief in the way that's socially acceptable in our culture, it's how everyone else is going to experience it. And then deciding that anyone who has learned to approach grief in a different way, possibly through direct experience, is somehow awful. But how many people have all of you inadvertently hurt, by assuming that following the script will give them what they need?

Where is it socially acceptable to react to the death in someone's family by sending a gif of celebratory dancing?
