Am I being a hypocrite

Sympathy isn't talking shit - it's offering realistic comfort... stuff like we remember the good times, note the persons influence, ... focussing on the positives and celebrating the life rather than letting our loss stop us functioning. Pointing out the necessity for grief and tears and the healing properties of that.

And you can do all that without lying about what you believe. Smile
