Ended up going to a wake today, begged my family not to leave me alone (bc the last time I saw any of the people there I was a literal child), and what did they do the first chance they got? Left my ass alone.

#I mean they dipped tf outta there.#we viewed the body today and made our way to the family to express condolences #and I hear my mom go 'I'm outta here.'#I'm stuck mid-handshake and when I turn around both her and my grandma are gone #so I have to shuffle down the line of people who've never attempted to speak to me and offer my condolences #WITH NO GUIDANCE. cuz the last time I went to a wake I was like... 6.#super awful experience for me. I mean it could've been worse. and in some ways it was.#but I got through it as best as I could. I'll hopefully never see any of those people again.#I did almost break down in the lobby cuz I was so overwhelmed after that. but I held it together #I did not know the lady well enough to be showing tears. I know exactly what the gossip would've been had I done that.
