I have been really pissed off at some old friends of mine about some really stupid crap. Can't really discuss ~ never know who reads here. Anyway one of them lost their dad and he was buried yesterday and no one told me about it. I will call this person but still I feel bad. I should've been a better friend really.

i can see why you'd feel bad.
but i wouldn't feel too guilty over it. you can't help it if nobody told you. how were you supposed to know?

all you can do is swallow your pride and apologise



i was really shitty to my friend a while back and i feel awful still. i need to apologise and i'm gonna next time i see him

When people are losing parents they often find it hard to tell anyone, or turn to their friends. Just be there now, and offer them time and a friendly ear, but no pressure. They may just want to chill out and be a human being again for a bit, or they may need to fall apart.

i agree with ladywhisp, don't feel too much guilty about it.
i think the worst part, when you've lost someone you love, it's all the months after , even year(s) after. just don't forget your friend, try to make him go out, movies and so on, to forget a bit his pain. be a friendly ear even for the worst days.
just be there for him, listen to him if he talks, take care and you'll be a great friend.
