    I had a friend ghost me like that. Although I wasn’t dying, but I was in his bridal party and we were like brothers. I had asked him to be in my bridal party but it took a few years before we finally tied the knot and he just went radio silent. Wouldn’t return calls or texts. Talked to his wife and she said he’s super busy. This is a guy who called me brother. I don’t know man. People are weird. Friends can unfortunately come and go. My sisters are both shitty people too so who can you even count on these days?

    As someone who has met you a few times, I would help you move.

    I love when people post links to videos or articles that are full of shit, and it's pretty clear the person never even watched the video, or read the article.

    I think we've all had friends who were co-workers, or just friends from childhood, or friends who were friends, who ghosted us.

    I've been "ghosted" by a few friends, and in one case I understood (her overly possessive boyfriend didn't like how we remained platonic friends since we were 11). The other, it wasn't a long term friendship, but we were close. She just stopped communicating with me, and I never found out from her why. I would message her, but nothing. I chalked it up to life happening, and didn't take it personally.

    She ended up passing away suddenly a few years back, and it came as a surprise to me and everyone. She had found a new boyfriend, and they were getting close and probably just didn't have time to message me (we were completely platonic).

    But if I found out that a friend of mine (I have 2 really good friends) were dying, and I was able to visit them? I would. I also would text them on a regular basis (I actually text them both of my friends on a very regular basis).

    It seems weird to come off as a pious man, and then to just be like radio silent, says far more about the person, than anything they themselves can say.

    But honestly, it doesn't surprise me in the least. Not only because humans by nature are sometimes weird about this stuff, but also just how some people will be a certain way when it benefits them to be a certain way (a friend of convenience).

    I’m not going to speak for ABM, but I personally have a really hard time processing death. Seeing someone you love in that state can be so hard. I had to put down my old dog and then a week later my grandpa was on his death bed. I really didn’t want to go see him because I was already emotionally broken, but I did it. It was hard to see him like that but I’m glad I went. I don’t think I could ever do an open casket funeral though.

    Oh, most definitely. But that doesn't mean you can't email and says "sorry man, I haven't been good at keeping up with you. " etc.

    Is this the reincarnate of the previous bodyman douche nozzle that posted here?

    Oh, you edited his original post.

    Didn't even catch that, lol.

    But now his 2nd post makes sense.

    Propose we rename this thread to "I'm Dealing With A Few Cisgender Issues" because frankly trans people are fine, it's the cis who are going crazy go nuts about us.

    Better yet, "we're dealing with a few ABM issues"

    They aren't having a problem with cisgender. So changing the title would just make it incorrect.

    If they can't handle trans people, they definitely have problems with their own cis asses. Why are they so defensive and insecure?

    Every cisgendered person should be offended, as you are literally implying that they are the only problem here. Both sides have been stubborn and pig headed on this issue. Implying that just one side is to blame, is simply wrong.
