Thread: Is he missed by those who were a part of his normal life?

I say with much sadness that I and his mother ae the only 2 people who have any contact with him. His mom lives in another state so I visit him on visiting day then call her with an update. The rest of his family HUH....they don't write, his friends who know where he is don't get in touch......it is so sad because he is such a good man and has been there for them through the years.

Well, I can't speak for what others may feel in their heart about him. However, do their actions show that they miss him? Not really. Then again, maybe I just expect too much and they really do miss him.

I'd have to say both. His family hasn't forgotten him, but they don't visit anywhere near as much as he would like. A lot of his friends are either also locked up or dead. Of the ones that get out before him, only some remember enough to keep in contact. So....both.

I guess it's a little of both. A lot of his friends go on like it's just another day. When I come around they talk about how much they miss him and how they can't wait till he's home.... and how they got a coldy waiting for him! His best friend and his ghetto girlfriend talked about how much they missed him and bragged about how they wrote all the time and knocked all his other friends for not writing. They'd try to...

His family has not forgotten him but no one has really gone to see him from his family. His mom went once but thats it. We live in a small community and my husband was the local horse trainer there was rarely a day gone by that men were not outside at the round pen with horses people always ask how he is and some write him so he has not been forgotten at all. Hes missed greatly round these parts and has the opportunity to come home and lead a...

I think it is shocking who suddenly disappears..People that you thought were friends don't care anymore and some family disappears....I think it is a wake up call for both of us as to who is truly your friend only for the reason of being your friend.

Is your guy missed by the people who were a part of his life on a normal basis or have they seemed to forgotten he exists? for us, it doesnt really apply because we did everything together and alone pretty much. we rarely went out with other people nor did things with either of our families. but in terms of his family(parents plus 7 bros and sis), they have seemed to forgotten him a bit this time. I think its just because theyre tired of this...

Nope! Well, he does have one friend that calls every month or so. But his other friends that said they would "be there Bro to support you" have scattered like the cockroaches they are. His family is overseas and I don't speak their language, so he keeps them informed.

His family is half and half. His mom, dad, one brother, and his sister all stay in touch with him and we all share visits equally. But his other brother doesnt talk to him or write, and goes to see him maybe once a year. And you can forget friends. I think that happens to most people with long bids. I just feel horrible for the ones that have no one to write or call

Oh yes without a doubt. I talk to him Mom every so often I feel like because of his absence with me being his girl it is my responsibility to call and check on her and let him know how she is doing - she feels empty without him there; his sisters and kiddos miss him so much as well and are ready for him to come home; now his niece takes it the hardest she went to see him with his family at the end of September and he told me she was literally...
