When you are writing condolences, do you ever look at other messages and think, everyone already said everything, what do I say?

Usually I try to write my message without looking at any other messages so I don't get trapped.

Yes. But I try and push through that, even if it means repeating what someone else said. - Beryllium Feb 28, 15:36
It’s the thought that counts, not the words. -- nm - znufrii, promoted Feb 28, 15:11 3
- In this specific case it's in French and my brother took my standard phrase. Two of my cousins said other great words. -- nm - loosilu Feb 28, 15:19 2
  - It's a cousin group chat, about 9. With this small number of people I can't duplicate a phrase. - loosilu Feb 28, 15:23 1
    - Sure.you.can. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 28, 15:28
repeating what has been said is still better than clicking 'caring' or 'sad' emoji on FB -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 28, 15:10 1
- True. -- nm - loosilu Feb 28, 15:14
