Hi. My DH died 10 weeks ago after a short illness. I am due to return to work in the next couple of weeks and struggling as to how to deal with a close colleague who has made no contact at all since my DH's death and has done nothing to acknowledge what I've been through. So many other colleagues have sent cards, texts, emails etc which has been so helpful and kind, and because of all this support, returning to work feels less worrying than it might.
However, this particular colleague has made no contact at all. We have worked closely together on a range of issues for the last 4 or 5 years and I would have considered us to be - if not quite 'friends' - then certainly closer workmates than many others.
I will admit to feeling very annoyed about this person's insensivity but don't know if I'm overreacting. What do you think?
