So, I've been pretty quiet in here and online in general for a while I noticed today. So I went on here, then I realizd the last time I posted was the 11th

awwww, *hugs*

thing is, you probably knew her SO well that you're still just in shock... you totally shouldn't feel bad just because you haven't cried yet. she's probly looking down and knows you're sad and shocked. crying isn't the only way people react to tragedy...

[kip_cathey]

I agree with Em! It took me months to cry about my Grandpa, even though hes the relative I'm closest to, or was closest to, depending how you wanna look at it. You should NEVER feel bad about not being one of the weepers at a funeral, cause each person deals in their own way.

It really is ok to not cry... its like Em said, its just shock. It'll just hit one day though, so carry some tissue with you.

(((((HUGS))))) Its always hard... if you wanna talk, you know we are all here.

[rebecca_reich]

Yeah I guess..

it's just when I see these people that only knew her a little bit crying... and when my pets die I cry - so I know I cry when I'm sad. and her family is crying... and they must have it really bad!

And well... it's not like she was my best friend in the world, or that we hung out every weekend..

but still... it's like I SHOULD feel SOMETHING- but I can't, no matter how hard I try...

But thanks! that makes me feel better- I can't imagine losing my grandma... wow... I'm sorry!

[rebecca_reich]

Thanks Em, I appreciate that man. I'm sure Nichole's around here somewhere haunting someone. I have no doubts lol!

Yeah, and you're right, I guess I am doing the "I'm gonna shut down and kinda go BLAH for a while" reaction...

I know I've hugged and comforted you in person, but I'll say it again. You're still in shock, but that doesn't mean you didn't care about her enough. You'll probably cry as soon as you stop expecting to.

[hourlily]

Also, more hugs for you. <3

(((hugs))). Second what everyone else said... last time I lost someone, I didn't cry for *months*. It felt weird at the time, but in hindsight it seems pretty normal

[rebecca_reich]

((hugs!!))

Thanks! I didn't realize the whole no crying thing was so normal.. this make me feel better :)

[angeliquesg]

I can't think of anything to say everyone else hasn't already, so *hugs*
