It's not always that simple. Known dude since we were babies.
Our mothers were friends in childhood. Share relatives.
If I got the call that he was gone, and I had blocked his number and deaded all contact...... that would eat me alive.
Plus tbh, dude is sincerely good people. He just had none of the chances that me and most of my friends did.
I was raised in a two parent home with loving stable parents. Who respected each other and worked great jobs.
He was raised in cracked out apartments(mom got twisted out with the hard stuff) with damn near 10 siblings from like 5 different guys.
Never worked, always on assistance.
Dude grew up in something like an after school scared straight program.
All I want is for my brother to be good and stable.
