Does anyone find it odd to be grieving for someone, even though you have only known them for a few weeks?

~~Or am I just feeling guilty about his death?~~

	It isn't unusual... (Reply to this)(Thread)

	It's hard to really know someone in that short amount of time though... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	People can feel sympathy for people they've never met before... It's one of the things that makes us human... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	Most would consider that I'm not human anymore. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kurt_howell 2008-05-09 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	Ah... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to say that you couldn't feel those same things if you're not human... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 12:03 am UTC (link)
	No apologies. I'm technically still human, just not what you would call normal. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kurt_howell 2008-05-10 12:09 am UTC (link)
	Oh... What is normal...? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Normal humans don't live as long as I have. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I suppose there are worse things than having a long life... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 04:51 am UTC (link)
	There are. I can think of a few... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	...You can actually get pretty close to someone in a few weeks. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	But can you really know them in that short amount of time? (Reply to this)(Parent)

	pink_sugargirl 2008-05-09 09:11 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think so. Death is sad, so it would make sense to be upset. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	That is true, but I've seen hundreds of people die before, some I've known for even longer, and have not been effected like this. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	stone_gun_nest 2008-05-09 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	Wouldn't think so... ~~Happened to me once...~~ (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	I guess I must be the only one who thinks it is odd... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_gun_nest 2008-05-09 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	It's funny how close you get to people when you're in the same situation... especially if it's a life-or-death thing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	It is pretty funny if you think about it like that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_gun_nest 2008-05-10 02:05 am UTC (link)
	I think that's something Dax has right. He can keep on cracking jokes even when the world starts falling down around our ears. Maybe that's the only way to deal with it, sometimes. Other times, though... if sadness was always bad, we probably would have lost the ability to be sad a long time ago. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 05:19 am UTC (link)
	I find it hard to find humor in many things anymore. But you're right, sometimes you just need to feel sad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_gun_nest 2008-05-10 12:05 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	beatennot_broke 2008-05-09 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	No, it's natural to feel like that sometimes. ~~Although it could be that as well, Rose-san, I don't know.~~ (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	I just find it odd... ~~Or that it's been so long since I had someone to grieve for.~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	beatennot_broke 2008-05-09 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	Sometimes we can't even explain our own feelings. ~~That could be true as well.~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 12:00 am UTC (link)
	True. I think I liked it better when I was alone and didn't have to grieve. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	jagan_glare 2008-05-09 09:26 pm UTC (link)
	Why would it be odd? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-09 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	It's hard to know someone well in that short amount of time. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	molexplosion 2008-05-09 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	It does seem a little odd to me, but judging from the other responses, it's really normal. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 12:01 am UTC (link)
	That's what it appears to be. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	molexplosion 2008-05-10 12:08 am UTC (link)
	My condolences, Rose. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 12:37 am UTC (link)
	I'll live. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	ghostsnaps 2008-05-09 11:27 pm UTC (link)
	No...even if you didn't know them that well, a few weeks is long enough to know who does, and who suffers the most from their death. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 12:36 am UTC (link)
	As others seem to think... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ghostsnaps 2008-05-10 01:11 am UTC (link)
	I guess there's probably a lot of people who've experienced something like that. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	pow_hammer 2008-05-10 12:55 am UTC (link)
	I think it's natural to feel sad when anyone dies whether you knew them well or not. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	originaldragoon 2008-05-10 05:22 am UTC (link)
	So it would appear. (Reply to this)(Parent)
