The Sad Test
The Sad Test is a real thing that I came up with in the months following my husband’s death. As I made new friends, I would test how real I could get with them. I don’t remember anyone failing the test, per se, but some people proved easier to talk to about these things than others. Anyway, hugs to all my friends! Hugs all around.
The Sad Test is very relatable.
I’ve done a similar test before, after getting out of a terrible relationship in college and needing to know who I could rely on to listen.
