I feel like 'because of' and 'for' as a meaning of cause and reason can be interchangeable like 'because' and 'for' but I know that there are collocations. What do native English speakers think about my feeling? Thank you as usual and have a good day.
Cf. 1. I cried for / because of my lost cat.
2.We could hardly see it for /because of the mist.
3. He didn't answer for / because of fear of hurting her.
