Last night I went shopping with my wife...
The store we went to had a special on greeting cards...buy two, get one free.
My wife purchased SIX sympathy cards in an attempt to 'stock up' on them.
I was disturbed by this action...I asked her about it and she could only justify it by saying it was a 'good deal'.
How on earth could she buy all these cards at once...is she going to keep them in a drawer and wait to use them??
Besides, how do you know what card to buy until that person actually passes???
Is anyone else disturbed by this?

I don't see anything wrong with this. Evidently she found ones that she liked or she would not have bought them. Sympathy cards have to be sent out quick, so having ones on hand comes in handy.
I wonder if you ever even buy a card and send it. I bet you rely on your wife to sending out the cards.
Face the fact, everyone dies and as we get older we loose more and more friends every year.
Being morbid is gawking at car accidents, buy cards is far from being morbid.

What's the big deal? It's no different than her buying a box of assorted cards on sale that would contain more than 6 sympathy cards.

No, she accepts that loved ones are going to die. It's part of life. I'm disturbed by people who think they and their loved ones are going to live forever. Yes, she's practical minded and yes, it may be a little bit emotionally disturbing, but it's really not that bad. It was a good deal.

That is disturbing. Is she hoping or expecting someone to die soon?
Maybe she is just crazy!
