Is there someone who used to be in you life that you miss? Answer with a simple yes or no, or tell us a little about him / her. Be as brief or as in depth as you like.
Rachel and I met exactly five years ago to this day and we instantly became very close we were more than just "close friends" we were more like brother and sister and I knew I could always turn to her for support whenever I needed it, but now when I think of her I just think of all the empty moments where she would grow emotionally detached and shut down
Seeing her sever herself from the world and from me and shut down completley and see her draw into herself and watch how she became unattached emotionally unattached used to drive me crazy, little did we know that that was the last time we would see each other as brother and sister and close friends, for no one could have predicted what the future held in store as a single night would alter a friendship and blur my visions of the future.
It came to a head one night when I looked up her facebook pic one summer night only to have it drive me into a seething fury, so now all I can think of when I think of her now is the outright anger I harboured for her the day she left, I began to suspect that the young woman who I had once so dearly loved as if she was my own sister had betrayed me, the way she had practically abandoned me to the cruel altars of the world when she left me had me feeling this smouldering rage that I have had for her for so long and that she allowed me to feel that rage for walking away to seek a better life in a place somewhere far beyond being with me.
