I guess this is a more serious thread. Have you ever been close to someone who passed away? I had a really good friend who got killed in a car crash three years ago, and I still find myself thinking about her a lot. The strange thing is that I didn't even feel sad for a good week after it happened, just empty. I still feel that emptiness whenever I think of her, which is fucked up, since there was so much more to her than her death. It's just so surreal to me that entire personalities can just vanish like that, I guess.

So, anyway, have you ever had to deal with something like that? Post your experiences if you feel like talking about it.

No, I haven't, fortunately... however, there were some friends that were left behind that I lost contact with after elementary school, so... I hope they're doing OK. 

if I werE to lose one of my close friends, I honestly don't know what I'll do... probably mourn a lot cuz some of those guys have been friends with me for almost my entire life, the highest being 11/12 years, er, somethin

That really sucks. Losing a close friend or relative is unbelievably painful.

Fortunately no, but I always get a very strange feeling of vulnerability (I guess you could describe it as) when I hear a person has died who went to my High School which has happened twice now I think.

My signature is my name printed, I was never taught how to write cursive. FML.
I was really good friends with a teacher's aid in high school. He was in his 70s and a Vietnam war vet. He was an original hippy. Always talking about good and bad vibes, an optimist, didn't beat around the bush when it came time for him to actually teach us  like all the brutal shit the government did to him (forced him to take drugs) and what his COs ordered him to do and what themselves did (order to surround village and open fire on it, killing many innocents and his COs raping women) He told us explicit details on his whole experience growing up.He was honest with us. Didn't sugarcoat  anything. He unfortunately died from his long battle with some cancer. I'll never forget the day he died. It was on a facebook post saying he passed, my whole feed blew up asking the teachers if this was true, they confirmed it and I remember riding shotgun in me moms car headed towards my grandmas house. And reading these post thinking this was an awful joke and and thinking what if he actually did die..So when I came to terms with it and accepted the fact that this great man died a few moments ago I cried a little bit. Trying to hide my tears form my mom (im not a real emotional guy most of the time) so I quietly sobbed to myself in the car. He's the type of guy I'd like to become when I get old.

That sucks. I hope I never have to honestly, it would be 10 times worse if I lost the love of my life actually.

And it depends really. Sometimes it can take a long time for the sadness to sink in, but for me it's pretty much immediate. If any good friend of mine dies or any family member or anyone that I truly care about, I'll be in bed crying for a really long time.

If it's the love of my life I'd probably attempt to kill myself.

The really shitty thing is that she asked me out before she left to go to her strings concert (the crash happened on the way there) and I turned her down. Probably one of my biggest regrets. I felt so guilty for so long because of that. I still do a little bit, but I have to remind myself that there's no way I could've known.

And yeah, I know that you're more sensitive to most things (not even trying to be mean), so something like this would probably be much more devastating for you.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Yeah, though I didn't know him particularly well. Bad way to go, run over by a truck... :(

School was a bit quiet for a while after that. A lot of people knew him very well and it hit them a lot worse than me.

There was also this other guy, was in a bad crowd but he was definitely smart and had a good personality. He committed suicide, I believe after he had his son. Not sure of the motive, but it certainly affected me.

Long live NoNolesNeckin.

Ya fuckin' ganderneck.
The one girl I actually had feelings for killed herself due to an abusive boyfriend. It's fucked because she always tried to get me to open up but I was too distant back then. I feel like if I had gotten more involved in her life it might have kept her out of that relationship and she would still be alive today.

Yes actually.

One good friend, we had an argument on the phone. then on his way to mine he got in a bad car crash.

And another committed suicide. He wasn't even depressed. I never understood why he did and it messed with me.

People who are really depressed usually don't show it. To an outside observer, they look fine even though they're dying inside.

That sucks on both accounts, though.

Yup. He's the one that got me into Gears of War too. A real shame he never got to find out how the trilogy ended.
