Suicide sucks. It effects people majorly, in a negative way. A close family friend of my family commited suicide 2 years ago (he was 17). And let me tell you, that was the worst week of my life. Everybody was so upset. It upset me that so many other teenagers were so sad. I mean, it confused everybody. This always had a smile on his face. That was until his girlfriend dumped him.

I just cannot imagine what was going through his head at the time that he commited suicide. I mean, how many people can actually take that jump of the chair?

I cannot say that I agree with suicide, but there are some positives that go along with it. It makes people aware of suicide. It shows that because of suicide, everybody hurts, and everybody knows after this happens, that is not the right way to leave this world, especially if it is something like breaking up with a boyfriend/girlfriend.

But, this is not always the case. The guy's best friend, a really close friend of mine (hell, he is like my idol) had an overdose on his antidepressant pills. I remember that next morning when his dad knocked on my door. I just knew that something was wrong. Luckily, he did not die.

As you can see, this is how people, especially best friends of the suicide victim, get messed up because of suicide. They want to be with the person who is gone. They want to see them so much, that they will go to drastic measures to see them, and that drastic measure is death.

So Shooter, you are not in a tough situation. Trust me, do not get too paranoid about this. You broke up with Kristen because you do not feel for her anymore. If she does commit suicide, it is not your fault. Why? Because she did not realize that you are not the whole world. I mean, you are just one of the fish in the sea. If she does not realize this, you have to be strong and live your life with no regrets.

Now, I just want to know if anybody has ever been in a situation that I have been in. My family friend who commited suicide. I didn't see him for like a year, and then he killed himself. I am very confused. Why? Because how can I miss him if he wasn't even in my everyday life? Am I being sell-fish by morning for him even though he was not in touch with me? So, does anybody have a feeling like this? If you do, please share it, because I need some advice.
