Ouch. I'm sorry to hear that she's going through this.

If you don't mind my asking, what was her father imprisoned for? Sometimes the crime can affect things.

>>17737437
> Life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Sounds like he did something fucked up, so why is she even devastated?

Dude, he's her father. You can find it justified that he's put away for life and still mourn the person who loved and raised you.

If I find out that the person who raised me is a total irredeemable scumbag, there is just nothing to mourn. At worst it's shock over being deceived.

>shock over being deceived
That's not mourning? Realized you never really knew that person is not mourning? That the person you loved and you thought existed turns out not to exist? What about guilt from whether you could have seen the signs, prevented anything?

It is also not that easy to suddenly entirely stop loving someone you have loved your entire life. All the good stuff they did for you didn't just suddenly not happen. And then you feel guilt for still loving someone who is a scumbag etc etc.

It's not that easy at all.

I agree with the first "paragraph" but the second seems like clutching at straws. Once you realize just how horrible the person was, the love tends to disappear quite fast. She's basically in the position of people who didn't know that their parents or grandparents were nazis and the reactions to that are well documented.

As for the actual answer, I doubt there is much another person can do, she'll needs time to think. Just being a supportive bf for her should be enough.

It's not that easy to come out and say that while you 1000% condemn what they did and feel disgusted with them, that doesn't mean all of your personal feelings just vanished.

dont try to hard. Let her sulk then help keep her mind off it brah

Well, obviously not in an instant one hears about the conviction but it doesn't take that long either.

The problem is of course that a second person can rarely help here since it's basically the process of sorting your own head out. Best thing another person can do is to create a good environment for that, without extra shit to worry about.
