How can I support my boyfriend after his sad loss?

Question - (4 February 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 5 February 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hey I need some advice.

My boyfriends grandfather (who he was not close to at all) died a few days ago.

My uncle -- who was like a second father to me -- died recently and my bf was there for me and im so greatful to him.

my bf knows i love him and he can come to me. He's been down, the death has effected him badly. he hides his emotions and i know part of him loved his grandfather thats whats making him like this.

My question is what can i do to help him. I offered to go and see him today to be there for him and help out but he wants to be alone at the moment. I respect that completely I just need ideas to help ease the pain I can see him in for when i see him.

He says i make him happy just being there with him. He says as much as he wants me to be there with him he doesn't want me to see him like the way he is. He doesn't want me to hurt, but i hurts feeling helpless.

Any ideas?

mousey17 agony aunthi,sorry for both your loss.

but if he says to you that you make him happy just by being there with him then maybe that is what you should do just be there for him be around him maybe not all the time because at times like this its nice to have alone time but just do things as normal if he tells you that youre making him happy by being there then maybe that is it.
