my frienrs friend successful ctb attempt and i need encouragement for my friend

[insideitsempty]

i think i shouldve specified exactly in my last post, i mentioned my friend's friend A was ctb'd, and the friend hasnt been taking it well at all, shes been closed off and upset and even refusing to come online and talk to me,probably bc idk how to comfort someone since i have no social skills, so i was wondering if any of you guys would know how to give encouraging words, or what to tell her so she can feel better, since shes my friend and i care about her well being alot..

i already told her stuff like "my condolences" and "im sorry for your loss" and "im here if you need to talk" etc, idk how else to tell that im still care for her and try to support her throughout her griefing. even tho im not a friend of A's which might be why my friend is willing to connect with those mutual friends of A's rather than with me, but i also respect her time and let her have her time. but in case she needs to talk to me again idk what to say. i want to leave her a comforting message so she can see and feel better, and to show that i care.

and yea my friend doesnt use SaSu (she might not even know what it is) but it could be possible that A did

It's kind of you to look out for your friend like this. Any kind of loss is hard, but one that's unexpected seems like it would be harder to rationalize.

Sometimes people don't want to talk about what they're going through, and they'll push away those that want to help.

They're just going through the stages of grief, at their own speed.

Just little things, even just sitting together quietly, can show support. Or bring over some food to share.

I'm sure others have better ideas than mine, but your heart is in the right place.
