Wrench,
If you have a problem with people who commit suicide don't badmouth them to their friends; go to their grave and yell at them. Nobody else needs to hear that crazy shit.
The people left behind to suffer aren't going to be swayed to your thinking if you're calling their good friend, whom they will never see again, an idiot.

I'm totally fine with Wrench and his opinion. If he had said that to me and none of my close friends had previously commited suicide, I might even agree with him. He hasn't disrepected the dead.

He HAS gone out of this way to be very demeaning and hurtful towards the OP who has just lost a friend. For this alone, I will judge him as the sh#t stain on society that he is.

if i may, i'd like to step in here for a moment and share my thoughts, as it was my friend who died, and i started the thread where all this brouhaha started.
wrench, i did not post here looking for sympathy for my friend. i did not ask for people's views on suicide. i certainly was not interested in starting a flame war.
i posted here looking for sympathy for me. i just lost a friend. i wanted to share that, and get a bit of love. i didn't have anyone to hug last night, no one to talk to in person, so i posted here. i have friends on this board who are my friends in real life, and friends who are online only (thus far). this was my way of reaching out to my friends, en masse, and sharing something awful that had just happened in my life.
i didn't post the reasons for her suicide, as it's not the appropriate place to do so. as well, those reasons weren't relevant to the intent of the post. my thoughts on suicide, and yours, are irrelevant also, had i been told she had died in a car crash or had finally succumbed to cancer, i would have posted a very similar message. would you have responded that you have no sympathy for drivers, pedestrians, passengers, or cancer sufferers?
the cause of death was not the point. the point was that i was feeling really wrecked and needed some compassion and comfort. fortunately, for the most part, i got that in an overwhelming amount. in fact, i am stunned by the outpouring of compassion i have received, both publicly and via pm.
your response was out of line, completely unneccessary and a vile attempt to be hurtful at a time when i was, and still am, feeling very low and fragile. however, i am not so weak as to be upset by the rantings of an angry man with a chip on his shoulder.
well. i have a funeral to attend.
