There may come a time in your life when someone close to you experiences a loss, and you will find yourself in a position where you want to comfort them. This is a natural emotion, and kudos to you for wanting to be there and offer support.
However, when trying to comfort someone who is raw with pain, one can quite easily offend, hurt, and possibly make a situation worse by failing to be a good supporter.
How? Well I’m glad you asked.
