It's a bit disheartening when you want to be there for emotional support and are prevented from doing so by distance.

This is so true

That's the only thing about having long distance friends or being in a long distance relationship--physical comfort sometimes is necessary. And if you can't physically be there when they're going through something traumatic, it makes you feel inferior, like they're going to latch on to someone who can actually be there and use them from that moment on.

Yeah

Same my best friend keeps trying to kill themself and I can’t talk them out of it

They're not doing good, huh?

Yeah and one of these days they are gonna succeed and then I’ll be completely alone

If you want pm me, I'm a good listener and I'll try to help them too if you want

Pm?

Private message, go to my profile and there should be a little envelope icon, click it and it should let you message me. If not I'll try to message you if that's okay
