My cousin was on the phone with me a minute a while ago just bawling cause his aunt passed and now his stepfather could possibly have cancer and i was sitting on the phone like: :udontlookok:
I'm really emotionally detached and I feel horrible when someone sits in front of me and cries and I have no reaction. True Aquarius smh
I have that issue SOMETIMES
Sis what the heck
Or you just don't have a significant connection with these relatives?
Just reassure him that you're there for him, whenever he needs you.
And if you're in person and he's crying, just hold him.

You can't help it fffff
At least you're there for them
If you feel horrible then you aren't that emotionally detached

Yeah. They are his relatives not mine.

this is a good point
You may just be going thru a phase, but seems like your heart is big if you realize you're not connecting as much to human emotions as you should

This is me to a T. Aquarius are truly terrible people. Emotional but yet completely unemotional. A true enigma. One of the reasons I don't want a lot of friends.

Not "my aunt just died"
"Let me call you back I'm about to pump gas"
I don't think you're a bad person you've just seen and heard so many tragedies happening throughout your life and you've become desensitized to it . That is unless it hits closer to home for you ..just be careful with it because karma has a very strange and unusual way of making us more humble and compassionate .

!!!!!!!!!!!
But I've learned as long as you're there listening and showing that you're there for them to talk to, that's all that matters.
After all, they need someone STRONG who's not crying with them because that won't help the situation.
Both of y'all sitting there crying will just make dwelling happen. :dead:
Yeah he was appreciative of me just being an ear to him
I'm the same way too. But for me, it's cause I can't really relate. I've never lost someone very close to me before.

nothing wrong with that IMO
Sometimes people in that state just need to hear a voice or words of comfort, or just someone to sit and listen. There's no right or wrong in this situation
U certainly aren't wrong for not balling ur eyes out along with him.

I think sometimes that's fine. People just need someone to listen.

Just send a simple text or something if you don't know how to react when a person is sitting in front of you. It is always nice to get a message from someone when times are difficult, it shows that you care.

It's sooooo draining
But emotionally and spiritually it can feel rewarding
