If there’s any catharsis in sharing a story, here goes.

She was doing some contract work in Amsterdam (no, not working a door, you cretins). A six week web development thing. Her and her co-worker/roommate bought some coke off the street. Wasn’t coke. Was heroin. Killed them both. We used to Skype every Sunday. That Sunday she wouldn’t answer. Got the call from her mother the next day. The Monday. We were on and off for six years. My life has never been the same.

What’s tough is the comparison thing. Every girl I date I end up comparing to someone who didn’t actually exist. Camille and I had a pretty terrible relationship, hence the on and off thing. But I guess the best way to get great is to get good and then get dead. I’m free to imagine everything we could have been rather than dealing with what we really were. Like I said above, you never get over it. A loss just becomes part of who you are.

    Shit…that’s rough Jon. Sorry pal

    Sorry to hear these stories lads. A mate of mine lost his girlfriend to cancer on Friday. She was 32. Life can be a cruel cunt.

    My god Jonathan that is properly tragic.

    Her poor Mum too, beyond terrible for everyone.

    Sympathies to Grant & JTY, some shitty cards been dealt there

    Yikes…sorry to hear this guys 🙁 Terrible news all around.

    Phil-McRackin Denise Johnson…..great voice, Primal Scream, New Order. 53….real shame.

    Big time.

    What a voice.

      My condolences, Jonatan and Grant.

      None of my ex girlfriends have died, but one from HighSchool killed a police officer and a rickshaw driver, ran them over in a drunken stooper.

      My life re-evaluation is going well. Mate’s 50th up in Whitby for the August bank holiday weekend, but the UK National 10mile TT Championships have moved to that weekend because of Coronavirus - I was gonna cancel my mate’s 50th last week - fuck that, I’m all in - fuck the racing.

        Good on you Grant, people find 50th birthdays an important event.

        I’m still recovering from my father’s 70th in December.

        Along_the_Wire I was gonna cancel my mate’s 50th last week - fuck that, I’m all in - fuck the racing.

        Love ya work brother, great shout.

        Phil-McRackin The Mail, Guardian and The Sun I believe posted pics of a black woman that wasn’t her for their “obituaries”. Shocking stuff.

          Had a few days off so a bit late to the party here. Sorry to read those sad stories jonatton and grant, not pleasant experiences at all, lads.
