    Default Have you ever been to a funeral?

    I'm going to a funeral tommorow and I'm kinda scared . I've never been to one before so I don't know what to expect.

    But I know that I am definately going to cry my eyes out So I won't be putting on any make-up. ^^

    I've been to 3. They aren't that bad. There is no shame in crying. Being overly happy is not good either.

    I've been to two. I wasn't close to either person who had died, though they were related to people I was close to. Seeing other people upset was a lot worse than actually knowing someone had died.

    No. I'm loving the "Maybe...." option, by the way Reno is Quinny's man

    The fact that I've never had to go to a funeral is one of the few things I'm still thankful for.

    Yeah, I was at my Uncle's funeral last year. I didn't cry though. I just didn't really feel anything at all - just blankness...

    I've been to a few funerals, such as the funeral of my grandfather, my grandmother and my godfather. Don't feel too bad about crying there. If you miss that person and someone says something touching about him/her, it feels very sad, especially if there's some sad music playing there, and I think it's totally normal being sad in a funeral.

    If you don't know or care about the person who died, it's almost too boring to handle.

    Ive been to two, pretty grim stuff, but the food at funerals is always a plus.

    I've been to one, my gran's, but I was really young at the time so I don't remember much. I remember one thing though, nearly everyone was crying, so don't feel scared about that.

    My grandfather's, just about a year ago now. Never really knew him so I didn't feel anything. Just felt bad about the fact I wasn't feeling bad and my cousin kept saying "are you okay?"

    Yep. I've been to funerals.

    I can usually keep my cool, so people can come and cry to me. I've been called the "Rock."
    I've also been called an insensitive punk, but the truth is simply that I can't easily cry in public, no matter how sad I am.
