So my girlfriend's dad just died and now she is getting

Just don't make things about you, and cuddle her if she likes it, be something of comfort for her. You don't have to forever but for the next couple months at least.

pat her on the back as you say "there there" make sure you tell her you know how she feels, and tell her everyone dies at some stage so it's best to get on with the job. also remind her about the time your pet hamster died and how you got over that after like a day or two.

she'll come round, eventually.

Just comfort her, it's not an easy thing to get over.

you ain't gonna get around the initial shock but the best thing is just to let her talk. you can't take pain away and it's something she'll have to work out herself, but you can help her work it out herself by listening and being a tool for her to use to get herself over it.

won't be able to right away, but after all the wake shit is over with and the black depression of post-dad-deadness is subsiding make sure you do activities w/ her that take her mind off the shit. hike, paint, start running, stuff like that.

I'm actually impressed. You managed to hit every single trite piece of shit thing people say when somebody dies. I literally don't think you forgot a single one.

Good work.

OP: above post was the actual opposite of what you're supposed to do, right?
