her mother died 2 weeks ago.

I told her I’m sorry but after thinking about what to say I couldn’t come with anything better than repeating sorry again. She then told me and another coworker how she died.

I want to show her that I care but I don’t want her mother’s death to become the elephant in the room each time we talk.

This is not romantic in any way.

    Just tell her that if she’s ever struggling and needs a person to talk to, that she can rely on you.

    That demonstrates that you’re a caring person who will be there for her if she needs it.
