Question

Why do I miss a parent that passed away even though I wasn’t really close with them?

Answer 1

It is because that parent is part of your life and they or you had lots of love for each other like a big family

Answer 2

It's okay—it doesn't mean you're crazy! The fact that we don't have a post about this is mind-boggling to me because talking to a loved one who died is something we certainly do, it is something many (dare I say most?) grievers do, and it can bring a lot of comfort during the moments you miss them most.

Care for yourself.
