Mad as hell

Okay, so let me get this straight? You best friend told you that your obsessed with your brother and you need to forget about him? Are you kidding me? I'm sorry but I would have slapped her across the face. Your brother just died of cancer, first of all I am incredibly sorry to hear that. Secondly she had no right to say that to you. And I honestly don't know why ANYONE would say such a thing, let alone to their best friend. You really need to sit her down and let her know that what she was said one hundred percent inappropriate.

Your friend (or ex friend now) is young and immature. On top of that she does not know how to choose her words wisely to make them sound polite, mature, or inspirational. Ignore what she says.

What a b*tch. I'm sorry about your bro. I'm guessing she never loss anyone close to her.

If my brother or sister died I don't know what I would do, I love them both so much. If you too were really close this is going to be really hard on you, and right now you need a friend. Just forget about her, she isn't a friend is she is saying stuff like that. I'm so sorry for your loss

Ugh, what a horrible thing to say! If anyone's a loser (and loser doesn't even begin to describe her) it's that girl. She's definitely not your friend--if she can't be there for you when you need her most, she'll never be there for you.

Wow I lost my cat a few days ago and I thought I had the worst life ever. Losing your brother has to have been hard, and I am sorry about that. And onto your friend, she might be annoyed at you if you talk about him a lot and how much you miss him. It might depress her. But if she were a truly good friend she would listen to you and help you through this. My mom says you find out your true friends in high school, it sounds like this girl sin't one of yours.

don't listen to her. You should never have to forget your brother. I don't know why she would say that but maybe she is saying that because she's afraid that you will become depressed.

Obviously your "friend" has never had anyone die that they were close to. Your friend is a punk and I would leave them alone. This is a time to grieve for you and you need to be around people who will help you through this time, not make it worse!

I am SO sorry about your brother. As for your best friend I would ditch her because he just died and you need to talk about it, its part of the grieving process. I mean my uncle died 9 years ago and we are still grieving about it. So if she can't understand that then she's not worth your time. And again, I am so sorry about your brother.

That's awful! I'm really sorry about your brother. It's hard to lose someone your close to. It's not an obsession, it's an attachment. He's your brother! I lost my grandfather over a year ago to cancer and I still think about him constantly. You never forget the people who matter to you.

She's the one who did something wrong, not you. I know things haven't been easy on you or your family, so she should be more supportive. I would question any "friend" who said something like that to me.
