I attended a condolence call / Zoom for a friend who lost a parent (not sure if to Covid or not). She’s quarantined with her family but not one of them was there while she had this call. I feel badly for her, or is that reading too much into it. If my DH at the least hadn’t been by my side, I would be very hurt. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

You're reading too much into it. This was probably his chance to go to the bathroom or something. Let her talk alone with her friends, whatever. [ Reply | More

My DH would have assumed I wanted to have a little space and privacy to talk with my friends. He's super loving and supportive, but I guarantee he would not have attended a call of this nature unless I specifically asked. [ Reply | More

This. My DH and I have been together roughly 23 hours a day for the past 16 weeks. I think a lot of couples can say the same. [ Reply | More

I've lost both parents (not during Covid though) and if I were doing this type of call, I would definitely do it by myself, not with dh. He's already supportive and it just wouldn't be necessary. [ Reply | More

I agree that you are reading too much into this. Also, one thing I learned quickly after I married (we lost our moms within the first two years) is that everyone mourns differently. Give people space to mourn in their own way. I'm sure her DH is supportive, but maybe he was helping make arrangements, doing something else that was needed during that time. [ Reply | More
