CW death of parent and dog
spoiler
ok so im autistic and i have had this issue with another autistic person. i would talk about my dead mom and then for like the next 20-30 minutes she would talk about her dead dog. this made me feel bad because i do not think the lost of a dog is comparable to the loss of a parent. i also did not like that it felt like for every one minute of talking about my mom she would spend five munites on her dog, i didnt feel i had the space to get into my feelings without having to then comfort her instead. to the point i would simply stop bringing up my mom at all around tihs person because it was emotionally draining. now if im talking about my dead mom and someone else talks about losing their parent that very diffrent in my mind and is in fact a comfort.oh woops
