"I'm worthless." he practically spat out. "I'm serious, I, a natural failure in life am a disappointment to everyone and am a disappointment to myself." And he said it like he meant it. It seemed like he believed it. He seemed to have it all figured out.

"Well guess what?! I know it's a lie, but you don't know that I know it so whatever type of self-doubt you have going on here you can just stop!" Is what I would have said if I wasn't afraid of the consequences. Instead what I did was blankly stare at him and then I walked away.

Hear that? I walked away.

Why would I do that? I cared, so much but instead of expressing that I just walked away.

If I hadn't walked away then so much more would be different. Maybe I could have possibly even...... No. I couldn't.

But I can't possibly even imagine what would be different if I hadn't.

Because later that day I had been reading when I suddenly got a text from my friend Nicole. 

"He's gone."

"What?"

"Forever."
