is it my fault she died?

Options
Long story short, the lady I was living with had a heart attack and died the day after we had a pretty big argument..
I feel like the added stress is what did it. I don't know how to accept that this is my fault </3 /:

    I'm sorry you feel that way. Perhaps any added stress from the argument exacerbated her heart condition (I'm assuming here) but you are not to blame.

    your friend didn't just get a heart attack outta the blue...she had a ****ty health condition to start with.

    Not your fault...accept it and move on. If you can't...you may need to see professional help then.

    I agree with others. She had to already have a health problem for that to happen. It was inevitable. My condolences on the loss of your friend, but its NOT your fault.

    Agree with the above. It was her heart's fault. It may sound harsh, but you don't exist solely to take the stress off the world's hearts.

    I'm so sorry that you are going through this. It's not your fault if her condition was so fragile that the added stress would cause this, then just about anything would have done it if you hadn't argued. Please don't hold this against yourself. I don't know anything about you or the deceased, but for the most part, I can't believe that she would want you to beat yourself up over this. I would suggest that you seek some grief counseling. All my best!

    How can you be at fault because your friend had a heart condtion?

    You're not. Even if you didn't know, it's not.

    This is like saying because we moved over seas I made my mother have a stroke.

    It was a hard lesson for me. It is false. We moved overseas yes, but I didn't make her have the stroke.

    She had issues with her heart that resulted in her heaving the said stroke.

    Therefore..

    Argument does not = death.

    Your friend was sick. Sad things happen to people and I am sorry for your loss but please, don't blame yourself for her death. Argument or not.

    I have never heard of a single stress incident leading to a heart attack without other factors involved. Don't feel guilty, remember the good stuff.:cry:

    Epic fail at trolling. Some topics should be off limits.

    Sometimes life is full of terrible, tragic coincidences. I believe that this is one.
