When spiritual friendship becomes complicated by bypassing

My friend and I have been spiritual companions for years, sharing everything about our journeys toward divine love, but recently they've fallen into what feels like spiritual bypassing around their grief, and I don't know how to love them through this without enabling their avoidance of real pain.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Sacred friendship is being tested by one person's use of spiritual concepts to avoid human suffering, creating a tension between loving support and honest confrontation.
