I'm going to a wake for a family member and I have no clue what to do besides talk to people, which is something I dont want to do. The last time I went to one I was a kid and played my gameboy and everything went by in a blur. Now im older and that doesn't feel apropriate to do. I'm cringing right now thinking about being there sitting by my self for around 4 hours.

You pay your respects to the dead and offer your condolences to the survivors. You share good memories with everyone there. Sometimes you have to be careful about this around the survivors, so you have to play that one by ear. If you don't want to talk to anyone, don't. No one is forcing you to, but you should at least do the first 2 things I mentioned.

You're not really expected to do anything. Just sit around, introduce yourself and talk to the poeple a bit. At all the wakes I've been to as a kid, the adults would play cards or dominos but that's my family. Find out what there is to do.
