My deepest condolences on your loss of your friend. Sometimes friends can be closer than family. In this case it is true. She was as close as a sibling to you. You and her shared that bond and remained as close as you could. You may never have had a romantic relationship but you both care and loved one and another. I’ll have to go back and reread the “Dark Canyon”. When someone you know be it close to your age or not it makes one think about their own life and future. Please take care of yourself as you grieve this passing. Big Hug!

Sad story my friend. My sincere condolences from here.

A tender and touching story of the sort of close female friend I never had but wish I did. I wish I knew her first name. I especially identified with one theme of the story: that young men are among the victims of our culture's anti-sex neuroses and Victorian prudery ... and that it's often our female peers who get wise to the scam first and proceed to teach us otherwise, God bless 'em. May your friend rest in peace.

Condolences on the loss of your friend. Friendships come in many forms--I can understand how your relationship with her has such a lasting impact. Yeah, BIG HUG.

Beautifully written, and if the emotions described in your words are anything to go by, a truly fitting tribute. My condolences for your loss, may she rest in peace, and I hope that when the time comes, you get to see her again.
