@_Dadzawa_ hey it’s alright that you rambled! i’m glad you were able to let out your emotions. i know how hard it is to lose someone and to have to fake smiles a lot. i know you say you wish you were brave enough to commit but even though it may be very tempting to do, but i’m proud of you for still carrying on despite that. i hope that you do end up feeling closer to him when you wear his vest; however, i am sure that were he here he would be proud of you for carrying on despite the hardships you have faced, are facing, and probably will sometimes face in the future. but that’s why you have us here for you. i know it can sometimes be hard opening up to someone you don’t know as well but i am so proud of you for being able to open up. and writing about all of your fears and emotions and experiences in your stories for your characters is really smart. it helps you open up in another way. and it’s alright that your mental health is slipping. it can’t be perfect all the time. but i’m glad you opened up because that can help quite a bit as i know from personal experience. you are not alone, ok? i will always be here for you with whatever you need. i wish you could feel comfortable enough with being yourself with your friends in person but it’s still amazing you can do that on here. i’ve got your back ok? <3
