What would be the point talking to people about this loss of a loved one, who merely ask you because social norm dictates it so?
What would he have gained?
He was obviously of sound mind and spirit, and did not require "grief counseling" from his analytical co-workers. So he ended that conversation.
- larrys 14y ago"because social norm dictates it so" Agree (as my comment indicates). This is an auto response that is triggered upon hearing certain news. While a person might also have an emotion many times you say it to someone you don't even know and care about. People hear something and they instinctively act a certain way. I'm not saying everybody is like this of course.
