Family members may pass away and even though nothing good of the death can be seen through one’s eyes, there’s always something positive that came from this tragedy. My boyfriend’s dad died a few years ago. I never knew what happened until a few days ago when he called me crying and opened up to me about everything. I feel so much closer to him because he showed me how much he trusts me by telling me what he has gone through in his life. I am the third person he told and that really means a lot to me that he knows he can tell me everything. I can tell his family at home became much closer through this hard time. My boyfriend, his brother, and his mom stuck together and made it out okay. Whenever I hear my boyfriend talk to his mom or his brother, I notice he says I love you every single time they have a conversation. I understand that his dad’s death opened his eyes and helped him not take important figures for granted. He appreciates his mom and brother’s appearance in his life everyday and cherishes it.
