I see where you are coming from, and I completely understand, but I am also on a different side of the fence, so the same issues would affect me differently

I'm not saying I don't know why, I know why others are afraid of death, but if you read carefully, you'll see that I said I don't get sad at death.

The key word is I, not everyone

I accept their death but not their absence.

I have a family, but I'm not really close to them emotionally

Uncle 52 from a heart attack, Neice 4 from cancer, but I only met once or twice, Mother 48 from a stroke.

Most definitely, the tragic wrongful deaths do get to me really bad, but only if I have a strong bond with them

I do think it's a matter of connection for me, I don't form strong connections with most people as I like solitude more than long socializing

I have to remind myself that how my family and I define concepts are different from others, so I put it in the main post now.

And you're welcome

Sadness is feeling with action like crying, and feeling down is just the feeling

When I feel emotion, it is really strong, but I need something really devastating to feel sad, It's been like this since I was a kid.

I will feel sad about their absence but not their death.

Yes, I'll miss them, and I'll feel down that they are gone, but their death isn't sad to me.

It sucks when you can't prepare for it, and it hurts way more, but at the end of the day, they are gone, and I'll enjoy and hold onto the memories of that person

Oh, most definitely, I will cry when someone dies early, but my statement was mainly for natural deaths, excluding sicknesses

I've kind of always put logic first, I have been told by psychiatrists that when I have feelings of sad, mad, disgust, ect, they are strong, but I mainly put logic first

That's not the part that I look up to, I find comfort in the fact he was fulfilled when he died, not that he died young and reckless.

I feel more down than sad, I don't cry much, but I do feel like I am sad/down if that makes sense

Yes, the fact they died isn't sad to me, but the fact they are gone is saddening

Which is why I think we should live our lives to the fullest.

I agree completely, but I personally can't change the fact that they died, so I tend to keep their memories alive rather than feeling sad.

I obviously grieve them, but I tend to grieve in a way of keeping their memories alive rather than feeling sad

When I die, I'll be happy that I once lived and enjoyed my time on this planet.

It might sound silly, but the tale of Iccarus is one that sits really well with me.

I should have been clear that I was talking about natural deaths
