Friendly Boundaries

It's always hard to deal with a friend after they've lost someone close to them.  My friend Kevin got home from New Zealand last night and we met for a beer today.  It was light and casual.  You know the kind of thing...dick and fart jokes.  We laughed a lot.  It was fun, but I wonder if I'm being a good friend by not giving him some kind of outlet for his grief.

I think this is what he wants and so I will give it to him for now.  Somewhere down the line I will check in and make sure he is doing okay, but I don't want to press the issue if he isn't volunteering.
