So close, but yet so far

By socks - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I had to explain to a woman I didn't know that my husband was killed overseas. She replied, "I know exactly how you feel, my dog died last month." FML

Some people just don't know what they're saying.

that sucks, firstly, 'killed overseas'? i assume means militar?. but back on topic, conversations about death and things like that often leave people confused about what to say, i wouldnt take it to heart. sorry for your loss.

Oh my. So sorry for you. And that lady... She's brainless.

some people's pet are closer to them then their own family. so I can see where she's coming from. some people treat animals better than they would their own kind

Either she’s clueless and has no idea what it’s like to lose a spouse, or she’s a creepo who was f*****g her dog. 😁
