I had a friend from Kindergarten to 4th grade whom I just recently discovered had passed away. I've never experienced something like that before but what scares me is that when the news was broken to me, I wasn't insanely upset. I mean, yes, I was sad. Still am. He was my best friend for the longest time. But after 4th grade, we didn't really ever talk again, so I think the connection kinda broke. I'm not sure how or when he died.

What's even more concerning is that the funeral is in a week or two and I'm kinda considering missing out on it. I'm most likely going to go, but out of respect for his family. 

I feel like I'm underreacting over the loss of a good friend.
