So, Im new on here and I’m not sure how to start this, but i guess ill just get to it.
My Life is like a Lifetime movie.
The reason I started cutting was because of my friend, Andrew. He was literally my bestfriend…. and I kinda had a crush on him. I knew that he had problems in his life, but dont we all? Yeah, I feel like a total ***** now.
Anyways, his family life was worse than I knew. I found this out when I walked to his house. I knew his parents weren’t home(they never were) because his dad was a jackass who, for all i knew, could be spendng days in a strip club. I know it’s not right to judge people, but he was a real A-class jerk.His mom work like three jobs to keep them afloat.
I walked into his house without knocking. (we always just walked into eachothers houses) It was quiet. I wasnt suspicious yet though. I went up the stairs and into his room. I said I was going to get to the point so here it is. He was there, but not in a way i’d like to find him. He was basicly dead.
I called 911 like any decent person.
I can remember begging the hospital to let me sit by him when he was in the hospital(Since Im not a family member) I remember Hearing his mom crying about her baby. And I distinctly remember screaming at his dad, in a moment of pure bravery and anger. Probably the thing I remember the most, was that I held onto that kid forever. I literally stayed with him all night.
I swear to god music will be the death of me, because everytime I hear a familiar song or something that reminds me a little bit of him, I go into extreme anger or tears.
Have you ever heard the song Daylight by Maroon 5? it says “When the daylight comes I’ll have to go/ but tonight Im gonna hold you so close” Yeah, real tearjerker for me.
He died that morning. They pulled the plug. Im a mess. And the REALLY ironic thing that makes it even more like a Lifetime movie is that I was going to tell him I liked him.
This was looong, but i just wanted to share, sorry.

sometimes the people that actually love us the most keep us at arms distance from their own pain, because they don't want to have to deal with it too. even if we are willing.
i don't actually know that song, but i know the intensity of emotion that surfaces when i hear certain songs. so, yeah…
“they don’t want US to have to deal with it too”… is what i meant. sorry.
sorry? thanks for sharing. no one close to me have die yet, but i know that experience had to be shocking and very painful for you. you will remember him forever, he was your bestfriend.. so what you should also remember is that he loved you, and he loved you for a reason: there is something good enough in you. i am sure that he would hate himself for being the reason of your pain. how do you think he would like you to remember the time you spent together?
take care
