Apologies if this could be against rule 1. I don’t think so personally but feel free to remove if mod thinks so.
So, I lost my friend. He was a good friend and knew levels of me really well that possibly nobody does. But this is not a mourning post.
Aside from the tragedy, it’s dull (as insensitive as this might sound). Looking and finding new contacts is a huge challenge filled with a lot of setbacks. Lots of work, I am certain most of you will understand.
So life just got a lot duller.
Edit: thank you for the empathy.
Edit: apologies if I am not thanking everyone separately, I do read all of them. It is very supportive and heartwarming and possibly one of the best moments in responses for me since the beginning of the public internet (not exaggerating, I do remember)


Very sorry. My condolences. I don’t really know what else to say in this context except that you probably have more support than you realize.
I do have support yes, but you know how it is among adult men.
Yes, I do. Please PM me if you just need someone different to talk to. I agree it’s not an accepting group overall.
