My question is, how can I process my feelings about my partner's reaction after a one particular significant life event?

Yeah. So we live nearby. I'm sorry. We traveled nearby to a festival and this happened about a month ago. And there was a shooting, unfortunately. I think it's important to note, too. We had a couple of our best friends from Illinois down and they have two kids.

So so the shooting was particularly sensitive because, of course, we're worried about our own lives, but the lives of the children, because they definitely don't deserve it. Right. So after the event, I'm sorry, during the shooting, our reaction, everyone's reaction, except for his reaction, was to run in the opposite direction. Very similar to how everyone else appeared to react as well.

When we got to a place of kind of calming down, we're no longer running, we're at a place where we feel like we're removed from the shooting or the shooter, he casually walks up to us and has a little bit of a grin on his face. And he was really calm about the situation, which made me very uncomfortable, made me upset. And it was not...

He felt as if it was a joke, like it was some kids goofing off and just trying to cause a scene. Whereas our reaction is, if it's a joke or not, let's get out of here. And that is what it seemed to be everyone's reaction. So I tried to reason with him, and I can't tell if I'm being unreasonable or if my gut feeling about this whole situation is accurate.
