Just found out a person I only knew through text and had spoken to briefly twice was a victim of a homicide early this year :(( I didn't expect this to hit me this hard
I even had forgotten that he existed, which is a shame. But once my ex roommate told me about him, I remembered him 😞
In short, A few yerars ago I had an issue with a roommate, Y and the guy I had subletted my room from, H gave this guy's contact info, A, so he could mittigate this issue between me and A as he knew her.
He did do that. Then a few months later H, who was A's(RIP) friend, tried to scam me out of my deposit, and even then he took my side and helped me on that journey. I was eventually able to get my deposit back from H partially thanks to A's help. This sub also helped me A LOT on that issue with suggestions.
Today I found out A was mu--ered early this year, after a meet up through a dating app. Ughhhhhhh Like .... I'm not unknown to tragedy specially this year. I'm just coming from my home country of Iran where while I was there our government murdered over 35 thousands of people in a week, and I have cried and still cry watching those people's faces to this day.
This one though is rough man. I just went through my whatsapp messages with him, and remembered how much of a nice guy he was. Seeing "This person is no longer on whatsapp" at the bottom of the chat was, just surreal.
I know some people are gonna suggest that I should contact for help, but I think I just wanted to talk to a few people. I like reddit, and I like this sub so just venting here should suffice. I'm staying with a friend thankfully till end of the month when I move to my own place so at least I'm not gonna be alone to go through this.
I hope you all are having a nice afternoon.
I'm heading out so smoke a cigarrete in his memory. Rest in Peace A. I hope the POS who did to you get's caught and faces justice soon.
