There are times when unknowingly or unintentionally we take for granted people that are important to us. And we might be able to make it up for it and promise ourselves we will not do it again. But oftentimes, we don’t realize our mistakes until we realized we already lost the person.

This thing happened to me. And I am still haunted by these people.

Things will work out in the end, Angela. I just know it.

Take care.

I am truly sorry for your loss I’m (fortunately) very inexperienced with death, so I’m pretty much at loss of words right now. All I can really say is that I hope you will be able to get through all your hardships and you and your boyfriend can work things out.

I am so sorry for your loss and i hope you can find some peace in your heart while coping with it. I am the same way i care for everyone so much and always try to see the best in people and i get walked on a lot because people know i am nice and they know they can get away with it because like always i will forgive them time and time again.

It’s never easy to be with someone who doesn’t understand you and who isn’t there for you when you need them the most. It isn’t fair when you love someone and they aren’t there for you when you need them. I would sit down and have a heart to heart with your boyfriend.

I have never been able to shut off my emotions when dealing with anything, that’s just the way I am. I happen to think it’s better to get it all out.. because when you keep your emotions inside you, eventually you become a bitter, or angry person. I was that way for a really long time.

Also, I think everyone can be a little (or alot) selfish at times. I am guilty of that just as much as anyone. If we weren’t that way then we wouldn’t be human. I also have taken people for granted, and then when they are gone you are left to wonder if they knew how much you cared about them. I did tell my friend I cared about her, quite often actually.. because I do care about her and always will. I’m glad I at least did that. I still hope she knew how much. You know? Anyways, thanks for your nice words.. I really appreciate it.

Death is something that affects us all. Your letter to your friend Tabitha was so heartfelt. It’s never easy losing someone, especially someone who was so close to you.

I think people shut off their emotions when dealing with death. It just seems easier that way. Everybody copes with death in a different way. Grief is a bizarre thing. We all seem to grieve in different ways.

It’s awful that we tend to forget the brevity of life sometimes. I’ve certainly been guilty of taking the people around me for granted. I can be so incredibly selfish sometimes.

Thanks, I do need him.. I’m not so sure about him needing me, though.

Anyways, I have dealt with death too.. I think we all have because it’s a very big part of life. It is really hard. It’s hard when any loved one dies.. friend or family. It’s all the same, really. It’s a significant loss, and a loss that will remain with me for a very long time. I hope things get better too, and I’m sure they will.. that’s the funny thing about life. Things change from day to day.
