Fake: Please be fake.

Gay: I don't care, just please be fake.

Don't worry he's quoting an episode of Freinds

[–] Cinnamon3431@lemmy.world 83 points 2 years ago (4 children)

holy smack I hope this is not real

[–] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 47 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean, it’s Greentext so

I for one would be so happy if this was fake. If nothing else that no one should have to go through that.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

For real this is all around tragic

[–] Cortell@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

It’s probably fake but I wouldn’t be surprised if this has happened multiple times to multiple different people. Cycle of abuse and whatnot

A 15 year old coming home from work and changing their bedsheets is a tad unlikely.

It's heavy but I still miss when greentext got honest like this. I feel like there's very few places left where people are "anonymous" and express their deepest thoughts.

Whether true or not, thank you for sharing op. I hope you got some help.

[–] halvar@lemm.ee 62 points 2 years ago (1 children)

For people not sure whether to read it or not: it's fucked up and sad. Includes: sexual acts without consent, suicide.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 76 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There is no language police here, you can call rape what it is.

[–] halvar@lemm.ee 26 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I can, yet I choose not to.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 45 points 2 years ago

The language police don't like that.

I would like to request that we go back to shitposting. My heart cannot handle this on pre-Monday

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean this might just be a shitpost as well, we'll never know.

[–] Quik 2 points 2 years ago

We’ll just hope it is.

FWIW I'm not even depressed by the post, but by the comment section... I just wish the sister would have said something, the dude must be devastated...

[–] VicentAdultman@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As someone that has (or had) a sister who died the same way, I don't even know what I feel reading the comments. These things unfortunately happen. I would feel the "she didn't do it, it's not real" for months after her being gone. I think we just don't want to accept it, but in the end you have to live with it. I hope anon is doing ok. In my situation I didn't had anything to do with and it was painful enough. I can't imagine what he is feeling and I hope he is well assisted to process everything.

[–] 7heo@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

First off, I know it's only words, but I'm sincerely truly sorry for your loss. I too hope anon is doing ok, must be rough. Especially since, probably because his sister loved him so much, he apparently didn't experience it as an assault, but rather as "something weird that just is"; so he must miss her, and possibly even beat himself up for having ignored that "weird stuff" instead of seeing it as a cry for help... That sucks, because at 12 he sure wouldn't have had the maturity to see that as a sign, and with time, the "routine" of it would have set in, so it might not have set any alarm off... So yeah, I'm with you there: I truly hope he got some help too, even tho given our society, I'm afraid that even some of the people with the best intent might do more harm than good. Gosh this is though...

[–] VicentAdultman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Thanks. It's been an year just recently. I got into the mood that I was when it happened, like really depressed, but now I am better. My sisters, and the one that passed away, were my mothers, they raised me because my mom was really tired for a new baby, lol. I really love them and they made life seem perfect to me.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 28 points 2 years ago

Saturday heavy posting. Man.

[–] Badass_panda@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago

Thanks, now I have clinical depression

[–] Nariom@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago

No way to know if it's true or not, but damn it's heavy.

[–] peanuts4life@beehaw.org 19 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I did not expect to read something so heavy. Maybe add a trigger warning? I'm okay, but damn is this sad.

Never kill yourself, but especially never kill yourself before confessing your pain. It's incredible, how different people's perceptions can be. You might just save your own life, and that of your loved ones too.

[–] discusseded@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh I am so glad you're ok. The second you called for a trigger warning my heart just reached right on out for you. I was saying to myself out loud, "oh no, peanuts4life are you ok?" and then you said you were. Such a relief.

And your suicide advice? Top notch. I'm going to make sure that every time I hear someone threaten their own life, I'm going to tell them "Don't. First you have to confess your pain. Don't you know how different people's perceptions can be?"

Then they're going to say "Yo, you're right. I must never kill myself, but especially not before confessing my pain."

Such worldly wisdom, I'm practically speechless.

[–] peanuts4life@beehaw.org 0 points 2 years ago

I'm glad you're taking my advice <3 really, the world would be a much better place if everyone listened to me and did the things I said.

[–] oryx@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Man what the hell man

[–] pigup@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Great, now I'm traumatized.

[–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

That guy will need therapy. His therapist will need therapy too.
