I don't know if I should say this considering my experience is a bit different. but I need to kind of talk about my feelings. I recently lost someone I cared much about. My guy friend That I wanted to meet from online. We would video chat and what not, He unexpectedly passed away.. He was 26 and had a aneurysm which caused a stroke.   It hurts quite a bit, especially since now well never experience the things we would talk about, that's the hard part to live with. I wish I had allowed to come over when he would ask. Now everything is gone. I sent a paper rose wreath I made to the funeral home for the memorial service. His mom has the wreath. I had to do something.

I found out some wonderful things about him and some sad things since his passing. The first days I cried like I never cried before. I couldn't keep food down and  didn't want to get up. I'm doing a bit better now. However, it's still difficult  to sleep at times and sometimes I feel like breaking down, but I don't want to cry anymore . Most days I still expect him to text me or call or even randomly bump into each other ironically, but that is wishful thinking. Sometimes I think i see small signs he is with me.  I see him in my dreams, or I see a random butterfly,(which is Ironic since I used to call him my social butterfly.) but then i  sigh and think again that it's wishful thinking. 

Who knew it would hurt so much losing someone from online..

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
