online friends just be changing your life n shi 4 years ago i became friends with this guy on roblox. holy age gap, but he was the sweetest ever. i was 12 at the time. i was struggling with the worst depression and ed of my life. i genuinely thought i wouldnt live past 13. but he showed up. at first it was a very simple friendship, but he became my lifeline. he was the first person who looked at me like i was real. like i mattered. he consistently showed up for me when i had been abandoned by everyone else do you have any idea what that does to me? it genuinely felt like a miracle. but then he went offline one day and never came back online. im 16. he's likely in college by now. he's probably forgotten about me, but he's all i can think about i just wish i wasnt so cursed i ruin everything good that happens to me thanks if you read my story i miss you so much nathan 'cause you were there to save me you were real youre as real as you made me
