I ignored him and he died.

8 Comments

We had this handicapped kid at our school and I never really knew him. after we all graduated, he started messaging me on facebook all the time. he was a nice guy, but difficult to hold a conversation with and would get confused easily for obvious reasons. not that it necessarily bugged me or anything, i totally understand and have nothing against it. i don’t reply to a lot of my facebook messages because i’m pretty busy and quite frankly i just don’t enjoy texting or having conversations through a screen. he literally messaged me last week with his usual “hey” and i didn’t respond. a couple days ago his family posted on his fb that he was in the hospital and i commented with my get well wishes, not thinking it was that serious. yesterday he passed away and i was invited to the funeral that is the day after tomorrow. i just don’t know if i should go. i look at our messages and how many times i just didn’t respond. i feel awful. you just go on with your life and never consider that people might be gone sooner than you think. i feel like shit.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I used to talk to this dude whose country ended up getting in a war and he lived basically at the front. there was a major language barrier between us we were trying to learn each other's language, even sent letters to each other, but I kinda did the same thing to him. I've no idea what happened since then and wonder if he died. It's sad but you can't really blame yourself, anyone could die and you'll be saying "I never did [something] for them". Not to be rude but you weren't all that into him when he was alive, why bother now that he's dead?

    Go, you’ll regret not going.

    I take ages to respond to messages due to my work.

    Not your fault.

      What do you mean what was the cause of death Isabella, its pretty obvious, the dude was a Crip and was probably wasted by a Bloods member.

    Completely not your fault first of all.Ask yourself if you'd feel better or worse by going.Then do what you feel.

    I honestly wouldn't go in your situation. It's not your fault you didn't reply to him so much. You probably didn't know him well either. But if you think it's the right thing to do, then you should go.
