Weird day.... My friend Ed's mom apparently died over the Thanksgiving holiday, and one of our mutual friends called me today to let me know. So later on today I called Ed, but he never even told me that his mom was sick so I didn't really know how to approach the subject, y'know? And sooooo....I didn't. He didn't bring it up either. I asked him if he wanted to go to dinner tonight and he's going to call me back to see how he feels after his massage, but even if we don't have dinner we'll probably go to lunch this week and I just don't know what I should do. I'm kinda lying when I don't tell him that I know his mom has passed, but I don't want to get in his comfort zone when he hasn't offered up the info. ?????

i'd say it depends on how close of friends you are. also, i think regardless of how close it wouldn't be inappropriate for you to say something like, i was sorry to hear about your mom, or something similar? i don't know. there's never anything good/real you can say at a time like that anyway.
Thanks CK. I think you're right. Ed never called me back so while I'm still being a little shy, I now know what I need to say, just still haven't planned a time to say it. Thanks again.
