Most people will bring groceries, cooked dishes as the person grieving (doubtful they will feel like eating) are too upset to cook meals. Also just letting her talk and staying awhile and assuring her that you are there for her if needed (just a phone call will do it) will give her some comfort. It's going to be tough for her for awhile. Grieving is a lonely road we all have to go down at sometime in our lives, but, eventually the heartache goes and fond memories of that person keep us going. If we think of the person in our heart and mind they never die.
I feel the most important time for someone who has lost a loved one is AFTER the funeral and when the person has a handle on their grief. Many people fall all over themselves to help before and after the funeral, but once everything dies down then the poor person is left feeling lonely. Neighbors should invite her along if they are having a party or a BBQ. Too often widows or widowers are left alone and not included because they don't have a mate.
You are a great neighbor, so take the food and if you think she feels like talking just listen and let her cry if she wants too. Sometimes crying along with the person helps too (but only if it affects you in this manner.)
AnswerAlot of people bring over a dish of some sort so that she doesnt have to cook at this time. You can also ask if she needs a ride somewhere to let you know and you'll try to help her out. Someone that just lost a spouse usually isn't thinking straight to concentrate on driving. When you are going to the store you can call and see if she needs you to pick up something, within reason, so she doesnt have to go out. Remember its the little things that count.Wiki User

When a husband's parent dies do you address the sympathy card to just the husband or wife and husband?
It is etiquette to put the wife's name first and inside the card put her name first and then the husbands (the deceased was his mother-in-law) so he should be included.
Is it proper to go to someone's house uninvited we have neighbors who have backyard pool parties often and we are never invited beforehand and my husband constantly just pops up there?
I suspect that you remain behind because you realize your neighbors have not extended an invitation. Please explain to your husband that while it may seem a casual backyard event it is inappropriate to impose on your neighbors privacy. Maybe your husband desires to socialize with them; he should host his own backyard party and extend an invitation to them. Of course with the understanding that the gesture may not be reciprocation nor should it be expected.

Should you be with someone out of sympathy?
I, for one, do not think a person should be with someone out of sympathy. Someone or maybe even both people are bound to get hurt. Being with someone out of sympathy is not helping that person at all. That person should be allowed to find the one who is truly meant for him or her. And the person who is showing the sympathy is missing out on the person who is meant for him or her. Being with someone out of sympathy and not love is leading that person on. It is lying to that person, actually. That person believes that he or she is actually cared for and loved the same way he or she loves and cares for the one who is showing the sympathy. It's just confusion waiting to happen. If that person were to find out, they could end up resenting you possibly forever.
