-- Posted by EmbraceTheHate at 6:22 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 when they're dad has died? She's my best friend and I have no clue what to say to her. I don't want to sound fake or generic or anything. I left a message on her phone saying that if she needed to talk then she could call me. But mainly I've just been trying to give her space until she comes back to school. -- Posted by jsgirl at 6:23 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 No words. Just hugs. -- Posted by Clouse227 at 6:24 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 You don't. You just listen. -- Posted by DemolitionxXxLover at 6:24 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 Quote: from jsgirl at 9:23 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 No words. Just hugs.

Tell her your sorry for her loss and that you are there for her 200%, just basically be a friend and make sure she will be ok. Deaths are really hard to deal with,especially when it is someone very very close to you. And the best thing to have during these times are friends and family to support you while your down. -- Posted by theboxman at 6:26 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 I would say " it is not possible for me to understand how you are feeling right now.  All I can say is that I am your friend and I am here for you and that I care and you can count on me for anything from going to a movie to help escape to just having someone to hang out with to help you deal with all that is happening.  You have people that care and are here for you." -- Posted by oOmclovinOo at 6:40 pm on Aug. 19, 2008 pretty much what you already did if wants you to say something she will talk to you about it
