When someone loses a loved one, it can be hard to know what to say to them. Research suggests that offering sympathy, instead of just feeling empathy, could provide real comfort. Here's why, by swhitbo
When someone experiences a death of someone close to them, it can be difficult to know what to do or say.
If you have lost a close family member, friend, or romantic partner, you know how painful those early days, weeks, and maybe years can be. In the immediate aftermath, you may receive a variety of forms of condolences. Those who express sympathy may find themselves uncertain, however, of what is the best way to show their condolences in a way that will be truly comforting.According to a new paper by University of Geneva’s Elodie Malbois , sympathy is “a feelinganother” .
If someone close to you were to express condolences in this formal and somewhat distant manner, the effect on you might not be quite the same. You expect the people who know you well, and who maybe knew the departed, to show their sympathy in a way that is unique to your situation.
