My best friend's son died of an opiod overdose 15 months ago. He was 26. At the time, I stupidly repeated to her what my boyfriend said to me "how did she not know".
He had passed in his bedroom perhaps a day earlier. She will not let it go. People, at the minute they hear, don't realize he is an adult and are doing their separate things. Obviously you are not keeping tract of them at that age. He was not accusing her of anything. He is a kind and empathetic person.
But she "holds a grudge" as she says. It has been difficult for me for my friend to keep hating my boyfriend. Now she has said she doesn't want me to talk about him. I think I have to let her go as my friend, and it makes me very sad.
Thanks for "listening".
