What the **** you're talking about...? There are many kinds of grief but condolence could only be use to express sympathy to the one who is in grief of losing his love one.
I do understand that condolence can be given even when they are not dead. That is the formal definition of it. But you must understand that such a statement is often used when said love one is dead. Hence, this should be used carefully. The implication of your "WOW" "thumbdown" is the reason why it is being taken as such. Also, it can be misconstrued as sarcasm or insult.
I saw your explanation on previous post. If that is what you truly feel, then I apologize for jumping too fast.
