Today, during a text conversation with a girl I've been trying to get with, she complained about how crummy of a day she was having. I told her it couldn't be as bad as she thought, and she would probably get it over it soon. Then she told me she had found out her cousin had been murdered. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Yeah. It's usually good to Find Out What's Going On before you try and console someone.

I've got to agree with #2 and #3. If you're trying to get with her, don't tell her it can't be that bad! If she's upset, she thinks it's bad whether it is or not; and in this situation, it was pretty bad.

I don't think you deserved it at all, just because you're not the greatest at consoling someone doesn't mean you're a bad friend. Hell one of my best friends sucks at consoling people, mainly because he's fairly emotionally shallow. My point is, you should just apologize, and tell your friend that if she needs someone to talk about it that you're there.

I am the QUEEN of making faux pas like this. They suck, and you feel like a big asshole. Hopefully she knows you didn't mean it.

theres no way you couldve known. it sucks on her part for what happened to her cousin, but theres no way she'd hold that against you. or that you should feel really bad about it even.
