So two of my classmates from high school died in an accident today.

It was 4 AM, and they were riding a moped with no lights. An SUV was coming from the same direction, and tried to dodge them, but hit them. As they were trying to catch balance, they swerved into the opposite lane and a box truck hit them.
One died on the scene, the other was airlifted to a hospital, but died later that morning.

It scares me, to see people that I grew up with die so suddenly. They weren't even 21 yet.
One of them my best friend had the biggest crush on in the sixth grade. The other was my first boyfriend from fifth grade.

Be careful, everyone.

 

Wow, that sucks. A lot.

But why is this in the Spam Zone? People are going to be like "OH HAHAHAHA!"

 

I didn't really want to post it somewhere in like the "Help With Life" section because I didn't really find me wanting help with it.
I just want to warn people. No one is invincible.

And honestly, I don't care if they're like "HAHAHAAHAH."

 

Oh...My condolences. That's horrible. If you need someone to talk to, even if it's unrelated or just a general feeling down, you're welcomed to shoot me a message. ​

​

Regardless, my thoughts are with them, their families and their friends.​

​

I will spare you all my thoughts on mortality. ​

 

Thank you so much. I really don't need anything, I am feeling quite fine. It's just a hard hit to home when I see things like this. I've had four people in my graduating class die since June, and that's not counting those I don't know about.
I just feel like it can happen to anyone. People live these days like they're invincible, and I just feel like I should express how much that's not true.

 

Yeah, I had a friend who had also died from some accident earlier this year. The saddest thing is, I've only known him for three months.

My condolences and R.I.P.

 

Oh my goodness.
Bluh. I am so very sorry this happened, dear lord. I similarly lost someone close to me recently - but I am happy that you are taking it alright. Though as a few members said earlier I am also here if you do need to talk or vent. I pray that their close ones and family will be able to get through things quickly as well. Life is definitely something.

 

Oh no, Rissy, that is tragic. It must be saddening to have learned about this incident, my condolences of course. :c

If you need someone to talk to about anything, you can come to me! Remember that, okay?

 

My condolences.

Where was this?

 

Sorry.

Don't ride vehicles without markers or lights.

 

^This.

I have also passed through something somewhat similar. My cousin committed suicide not even a week ago, for the sole reason of "being bored of this world". If you need anyone to talk to, let me know. I'd be glad to cheer you up in any way possible.

 

Oh wow... My sincerest condolences about what happened; my thoughts go out to the victims & all of their loved ones who've been affected by the tragedy. For what it's worth at this point, I'm also 100% willing to talk if you want to, feel free.

 

It is dreadful to hear.... I hope you the best in dealing with something like this.

It reminds me of last year where a girl I had hung around with for a few months and had a laugh with a couple years back died, I believe, from an anurism. She was only 18. I know i cried over it, it was just tragic and unexpected, out of nowhere.
I think that's probably similar to an accident. Sudden and tragic.

I really do hope you get theough this, and to talk to anyone you need to about it if you want to.

Here is the Newspaper Article from yesterday's paper.

I also found this posted.

 

My word, Rissy, deepest condolences my dear. Also to the other friends and family of the victims.
I hope that people learn to be more careful to avoid accidents like these. So unfortunate, they are. If you ever need a little chat, or anything really, you know I'm here gurl : *

I know it's hard, but I hope you feel better soon

 

This may be the Spam Zone but I don't think anyone here would respond like that, or at least I'd sincerely hope not. We're not jerks here.

@Rissy: I'm truly sorry to hear about your classmates. Such a waste of life. :c I knew two boys who died a couple of years ago and I often find myself thinking of them. It's so sad and very frustrating when all you can think of are 'what ifs' and 'if onlys'. But these things happen; it just seems weird when they happen to people that you know.

R.I.P.

 

Hm. Interesting. What state was this place in?

 

My condolences, my dear.

Unlike most everyone here, I've never lost anyone that I knew personally, so I can't say I understand, but I'm always here to talk and stuff.

 

I'm so sorry to hear that, the truck driver was caught for not having a driver's license though. How ridiculous.

I may have never lost anyone super close to me but my thoughts to you and their loved ones <3

 

Gees... my condolences too, Rissy girl. And I know everyone has said everything that could be said, but their families will be in my prayers. *offers big hug*
