Happy Birthday David R.I.P.
#videogames #destiny2 #grandtheftautov
Today is my friend David’s birthday. He would have been 37. He passed away on December 1st 23.
I’ve known David since high school, whenever we hung out after school we would play games, I wasn’t that much into gaming as I am now so I would just watch him play, he would always play GTA, he had other games but all I remember him playing was GTA.
He graduated 2 years before me, I was put back a year when I entered school after being homeschooled a few years only because I didn’t learn anything from being homeschooled.
After his graduation we slowly drifted apart, I was really upset about it, there was a lot of drama mostly caused by me that I don’t want to bring up.
After a few years he contacted me on facebook asking to hangout and we reconnected, this time I was much more interested in gaming and we starting hanging out more on xbox.
We spent a lot of time playing GTAV, I’ve never played the story mode of GTAV cause I didn’t care for it, I only had the game to play the online stuff with him, the game was more fun with him. Since his death I haven’t logged back into GTAV online cause I don’t see the point if he’s not there to make me smile. Same with Red Dead Redemption Online. We also played Farcry 5 and 6, two other games that I only bought just to play with him, we never did finish the campaign on 6 and now that he’s gone, I just don’t want to. I also bought Saints Row and The Division 2 just to play with him.
A year ago, I finally brought him into the world of Destiny 2. I played D2 alone since it came out. He finally became a guardian and I helped him power up, helped him through shadow keep, Beyond Light, Witch Queen. We never did play Lightfall but I’m ok with that. It’s a shame he couldn’t travel with me through The Final Shape. Now when I log onto Destiny 2, a game with millions of players, I just feel lonely.
There were plenty of other games I wanted us to play this year. Fallout 76, Dying Light 2, No Mans Sky, Halo and so many more. Whenever I log onto these games that have millions of players, I just feel lonely. I could invite people to team up but I’ve never been good a meeting people, I was like that in High School, to be honest I don’t even remember how I met David or how we became friends.
The last time we hung out on Xbox was 11 – 18 – 23, that was the last time we played together, last time I heard his voice, last words I heard from him were “Talk to you later, Luv ya.”
The last text I got from him was on thanksgiving, I sent him a Happy Thanksgiving text and he wrote back with “Same to you, steak and potatoes and asparagus.”
When David passed, I didn’t hear about it for a whole month, it was Jan 13th when his mother contacted me about what happened, it was the day before my birthday, didn’t feel like celebrating anything after that.
When I didn’t hear from him for a whole month, I assumed with it being the holidays he was busy with his family and with work I also assumed the worst and that he just for some reason didn’t want to talk to me anymore. I didn’t go see him cause we lived 2 hours apart from each other and neither of us had a car. We used to live in the same town but I had to move to Vegas for health reasons. Whenever we talked or texted, he would always bring up how much he missed me.
David and I weren’t in a committed relationship, we just had a friend with benefits relationship, I bring this up cause one day he texted me saying how much he missed me and wanted to have some naughty fun, I texted him saying “he must have other female friends beside me, go ahead and invite them over for some naughty fun.” He texted back saying “All his other female friends are in relationships or married. You’re the only female friend I love and care for.” That message surprised me and I responded with a winking kiss face emote, there were so many things I could have said and I responded with a stupid emote.
There were so many things I wanted to ask David about us, his death just left me with unanswered questions that I’ll never know the answer to. I was afraid of asking these questions because I was afraid it would ruin our friendship. I had plenty of chances to buy a damn bus ticket and go see him one last time but I kept hoping he would give in and come see me instead. At one point he was home alone for a week and talked about how much fun we could be having, I could have gone, I could have spent 50 for a damn bus ticket and go see him but I didn’t, I told him I couldn’t make it when I could have.
I wanted us to attend a video game convention dressed as our favorite video game characters, I have never been to a gaming convention and would have liked to experience it with him.
GTA6 is supposed to be coming out next year, it is a shame he never saw the trailer or be here to experience the game. If he had seen the trailer, he would be talking my ear off about it.
Sorry this was so long.
R.I.P. David. I Miss You.
