You know... it's odd. A relative you don't really care much about anymore dies, and you just kind of feel numb from it. It doesn't affect you like it would some others.

Then... you watch one of your best friends lose his brother. The second person to die in his arms in his life. What kind of ******** s**t is that? How is a man supposed to stay sane watching his brother die right there in front of him, knowing he can't do a damn thing to save him?

I think I understand him better now. Why he does the things he does. Because he's always an inch away from the edge at all times. He's stronger than me, and I know it. I would've broken a long time ago.

Ronnie, rest in peace. You'll be sorely missed.

Wow, I'm sorry D:

I know what you mean
I was more upset when my friends rabbit died than when my grandpa did

I don't really think a relative dying isn't any more important that any other person dying, just because they were related
You don't need to get along with family, and you don't need to love them
And you can be closer to someone who isn't family than someone who is
So it does make sense to be more upset over a friend or someone close to a friend dying than family.

But that's horrible
I hope your friend will be okay

Oh wow...
I'm so sorry that happened.

Of course, friends can be just like family to you.
You could go tell some person that your best friend is your brother or sister, and they wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
If your friend's family member that was close to them dies, then it makes your friend sad, which then makes you sad aswell. D:
But if someone from your family dies, but you weren't really close to them, then you don't feel much of anything from it.
And this doesn't make you a bad person or anything, you just feel more attached with another person.

I hope your friend gets better reeaalllyy soon.
