over a member I'm told passed away. All I can say is I'm the worst person when it comes to friendship. I never responded to this person's message...like many others. I feel so bad not just for this particular death but not being able to be emotionally there for others. Just thought I'd get it off my chest.

Oh God who was the member. Don't feel bad, everyone can only do their best at handling their lives.

His username was jawbrodt. I just found out today and this supposedly happened in November.

I'm also horrible at correspondence for a lot of reasons, don't feel bad, I think everyone here understands in some way that people have their own unique difficulties and hang-ups and I'm sure he appreciated the interactions he had with you.

Thanks. I just feel bad because there are some things I suspected but never even attempted to take action on. I do get attached to people but I'm not great at being a "friend" or the kind of person people can rely on for support or even a chat. Been feeling kind of down these last days due to difficulties with my communication skills.

Maybe doing something to raise awareness in his name would make you feel better. I do not believe you should blame yourself, though.

I'm very sorry to hear that. There was a woman that I knew who passed away and I did something similar and I have an idea how you feel because of it. It's tough when you find out that somebody's passed away and you wish that you've done things differently.
