This year has a been a heck of a ride.... My best friend passed away. I feel a hole in my chest... Just emptiness in me. Everyone has moves away. This place just doesn't feel the same anymore. With that being said I tend to want to message the girl I was engaged to. Yes she was unfaithful... But I miss her more then usual would a message on Fecebook or friend request be a bad idea? She's a part of me I can't let go..  Let's just leave it at that!

Don't reach out to her just to fill the void of your friends moving away and your friend passing ( Sorry for your loss), its crazy how much time people take up in your life( in a good way) and when they disappear you suddenly wonder, what did I do with all these free moments, same with relationships of any kind I suppose. If your friend was a decent person, they would want you to get out there and do whatever it is you two did with other people!

I have never had a friend pass, but during covid, at least 5-7 people I talked to "Needed to figure things out" and we just stopped talking. I need to get back out there and connect with people too!

Yeah good call. I'll tell you this if you have people you need to connect with do it. We are not promised tomorrow. Tell everyone you love. That you love them because when they are gone you will wish you did!!!

And yeah I just really need to fill this loneliness is all..

i'm sorry about your friend, op - i can't imagine something that awful happening to someone close to me. i would feel like dying myself i think.
in regards to your ex, i don't recommend reaching out to her unless what you desire is closure? usually people who are unfaithful aren't really worth 
reaching out to again imo - but maybe you'll have a different experience. 

as per your actual question, hmmm yes. i think about people really often - all the ones i've spoken to and had some semblance of a relationship 
with whether it was casual or more intimate. i never really talk to them but they persist in my mind. sometimes i even dream of them and i wake 
up feeling quite out of sorts. in particular yes i do wonder about one person a lot - i know i could always reach out to them but i don't want to be 
a bother. i wonder if they're okay from time to time - i have no remorse over how things are but i just think of them fondly i suppose. 
i just miss people quietly in the back of my mind.

when someone breaks yr trust it's more than just an instance. it shows they have the ability to do so, which means they would do it again. it's not worth, especially if you want to feel good, which is seems you do

sorry about your friend, losing people is never easy

He's not dead, but I miss my little brother sometimes. I miss talking to him and getting along like we did in our teenage years. But these days he takes a lot of drugs and doesn't talk much anymore, I think he's also depressed. And when I do try to get in touch with him he replies after like two weeks.

I miss the good old times when we had a retro land line phone and you couldn't see who called. My grandma, who's dead now, used to call and when I picked up the phone, she had such an energetic voice which I kind of miss now. She always said; "Grandma heereeeeeeeee hellooooo..." with a lot of energy.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend, OP. I know it must hurt to the core to lose someone that close to you.

In my personal experience, the only person I miss is my Grandpa who was a Vietnam War veteran, who passed away two years ago. He always had stories and I remember having good and enjoyable memories with him in my youth.

I've lost people along the way, but due to other experiences, I've sort of grown to resent them and become distant and cold.
So my answer is not really.

I'm sorry for your loss :( I also have people in my life who I think about from time to time that I no longer talk to, especially since I moved away. But that past couple years I've been making a big effort to be more involved in my community, and that has yielded to new friends who I really enjoy being with and how align with my values as I grow

Hey man. So, I'm really sorry to hear about your best friend. I can understand that it's really tough. If you want to talk about it, I won't mind hearing you out.
As for your ex, I won't recommend it. A coupme of people I know did something similar, and they got hurt pretty badly.

As for me missing someone? Yeah, my maternal grandma. She died this March due to health complications. I grew up with her around me and she had been my role model. Not to mention she was something of a magnet for the whole family. She actually taught me and my cousins different subjects and used to take us out before her health deteriorated. Ever since her death, the family has broken up. Ironically, my grandma died on my mom's birthday.

I miss my ex boyfriend, not as a partner, but he moved to another country for studies. We always have been and are pretty close. He has a very jealous partner now and she doesn't like him visiting ex partners.
Also, I miss another friend and his partner, who moved away too for work. Life's like that sadly.

my best friend died because of drugs, still nobody knows whether it was sui or an accident
i already saved his life once in the past, i pushed him into rehab really hard after that
but he died while i was in rehab myself and i couldnt really do anything, powerlessness crushed me
its because of his death that i decided to keep on living and try to fight for my own life
i always think of him and keep him in my heart

the thing is that he was the first person i met when i moved into the city
and he was the first trans person i ever met
he died before i came out myself, he died before i managed to get better
i truly wish everyday that he could see me right now, as a woman, with ambitions and goals, working hard, clean of all hard drugs
i work really hard because of him and i will never ever give up and never ever return to my past life because i have him in my heart forever i love him so much
i dont believe in all the soul and heaven shit but i like to think that he actually sees me from up there u know
thats why im doing my best i wish he could see me right now

i keep in touch with his mom, we meet, get coffee, smoke, chat about life, about memories

i was surrounded by people struggling with substance abuse, i know so many stories like this
but it was my best friend, my roommate, great dance partner, and a fucking trans icon
i miss him

I have a girl at work that said she would go on a date with me. But it seems everything I go to bring it up again I panic. I really am pathetic when it comes to expressing my feelings to people ... I always end up falling in love and I blow it.

If I don't soon ask her out I'll lose my chance... I do like this girl we are good friends.

I just have to ask my myself what do I do now?

Likewise, condolences to you. Yeah, the gaps and on what could've been in important moments in my later childhood and whole teenage years always come to mind whenever I rethink about the little time he was able to be with me.

Sameer was a good friend and very interesting person.

Tsukasa was a rally good friend.

Christina, a girl from my distant past, whom I still remember fondly. I could not really appreciate her back in the days.



Possibly Teresa if she is my kind of shy timid girl.

I am not so sure about Shirley nowadays, there was strong initial attraction but something held it back. I am not sure if it was just a misunderstanding or we are fundamentally incompatible. 



May be Fedya, but his influence on my life was not entirely positive.

May be Olya but I am not sure how she turned out now.

Hope she is ok... God bless ya'll and her. I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah I never really been close to girl before besides my ex... I loved her just I guess sometimes had a hard way of showing it... Maybe if I was a better bf she wouldn't of cheated on me. Whatever sins I committed in life it feels like I'm getting punished for them now.... And yeah after I lost my best friend this town just ain't the same anymore. We rode these same streets for 25 years. Double dating, playing video games, witnessing the first snow together, getting in fights over girls but we also came back to each other. I had his back over my own cousins when they got in fights. It is a whole in me...

Just because it's goodbye doesn't mean it's game over I suppose. I'll have to find a reason to live beside working...

I'm really sorry about your loss. It's understandable that you want to reach out to others, but please just be careful about who you reach out to.

And yes. I miss my grandma who died in 2020. I live in the house she used to live in and since everything in here technically belongs to my mom, I haven't really been able to touch anything because my mom wants to go through everything on her own time. I think she's also lowkey been avoiding going through everything because my grandma and my mom were like best friends and she knows it'll be hard. Because of that, most of the things/decorations in the house are my grandma's (or grandpa's, but he died a long time ago). It's easy for me to look around and remember "ah, Pearl used to use this" and just wish she could be back. I can't change anything though and can only keep moving forward.

Yes I do, actually two. James and Cole. They're missed every single day. Even after 32 years after his passing (James) and almost 30 years this September (Cole). Gone but never forgotten.

As I get older I miss them more and more, and the pain never truly leaves you.

The only person i genuinely really miss is this girl i had a crush on in college, we were friends and i think she had one on me too, but i was too awkward and shy to ask her out and eventually she got transferred to another campus. So i never could

I think about messaging her on social media but i often worry she won't remember me. It's been about 6 years.

My grandfather, a former clerk for the RCMP/GRC and a Russian-English interpreter as he grew up with speaking a Belarusian dialect. Me and my mother don't know much about his past that well as he was a very private person even to his wife. He passed away when I just started entering middle school. One thing for sure, he was the one who inspired me to learn Russian.
