AITAH For hugging grieving dad
I attended the viewing for a former coworker’s 22 year old son that passed way this weekend due to a tragic vehicle accident. Our family know and have attended each other’s family functions; they are close family friends. He is married and has 2 grown adult children (now only 1). My husband and I went to the family to give them our condolences. When my former coworker saw me, he sobbed uncontrollably. I gave him a fierce hug. Why? Because I wanted to make his pain go away. I have the utmost respect for this family. When I approached his wife, she didn’t stand up and she looked dazed as if she was given something to ease her pain. I mentioned all of this to my sister, and my husband chimed in that she most likely didn’t stand up because she was upset I hugged her husband. I also went up to their daughter and extended family members to give my condolences. Was I the AH for hugging my former coworker?
