Discussion Who would miss you when you're gone?

Who would miss you the most when you're gone from this world? who would be the most devastated?

 

[LonelyPrince]

My dog lol. No one else loves me like she does, in this pure unconditional way.
My mother would probably be devastated but part of me, an ugly one, enjoys that thought. I think to myself: "good riddance".

Nobody will care.

Probably the brother that's closest in age to me. We talk everyday. So I think the impact on him would be greatest. It's what I feel the most guilty about. But at the same time I'm a big believer in not wanting someone to suffer if you love them. So I hope he'll understand.

My mom would die of a heart attack. Everybody else would be fine. Maybe some would be sad for a while but ultimately it would all be for the better.

 

[fadedghost]

no one

although i expect one family member would have performative fake grief

 

[wannabeangel]

my parents and siblings, my ex husband even tho he left for valid reasons, im sure some friends would miss me too even if i wasnt very close to all of them all the time. it makes it harder to go through with everything, but i hate feeling like i am just forced to suffer to make others happy with my existence on this earth

I'd say my cat but I think even he dislikes me...

 

[whywere]

Absolutely no one.

I might, a huge might, be remembered for the scholarship that I am going to set up but besides that aspect, ZERO.

Oh, there will be shirt tail cousins who will speak nicely about me until they find out that they get ZERO and then the usual barbs and nasty language will be back.

my cat. i don't know if anyone else would miss me that much when i'm gone, they barely act like i'm alive now unless they think i'm in severe distress.

 

[idksympxthy]

my little sister. she doesnt speak much but I was the first person she ever told "i love you". at my worst moments she runs into my room wanting to cuddle, or just yanking my arm to come hangout with her. she takes me out of that dark mindset a lot and i find myself always breaking down into tears silently when i hug her. I just keep praying everyday that she can keep her innocence for as long as she can unlike me when i was a kid. The thought of her even encountering one unkind thing in this world makes my chest tighten. If i leave this world, how can I know that she'll be safe?

My sister, my dog, and a few friends. I don't think any of them will be surprised though, I've been very clear that I'm on the way out. The dog will look after my sister. I'm trying to find a way for my dog to see my body before cremation so he's not waiting for me to come home.

My mother will make it all about her. I doubt my dads will notice after the initial shock.

My mom, I think. I don't feel like we have a "deep" connection. I'm the youngest of my siblings, and she had me at quite an old age. Also, after I was born, everything seemed to start going wrong for her (my grandma died, and she began having financial and marital problems, while her mental and physical health deteriorated), so I guess I can't blame her for not being that fond of me, as I barely remember her playing with or taking care of me when I was a child. Now that I'm an adult, we argue a lot because we pretty much have nothing in common aside from our temper, but when we're on good terms, it feels good. It's also very clear that I'm the one she loves the least in this home, but I can't help but love her the most anyway.

This is why I always preferred animals over humans. Something special about how animals don't complicate love. The human mind is our greatest tool, and our greatest enemy.

i dont even know anymore

My wife, which is a big reason why I haven't done it yet. She'd be able to find someone better, though.
