Get the grief stew mug.(n) A person who likes to be around sad people so that they can feel needed and important. Often, these people will also internalize others' sadness so that they, in turn, can be comforted. They may seem like fragile, weak little birds but a true Leech is just an attention whore who likes the condolences and hugs they get from being sad and fragile.
Grief Leeches are most easily identified by their constantly talking about various friends that they're always "so worried" about. Note that you are always hearing about how she is helping them from the Leech herself and not from her supposed friends.
