I Was Just Minding My Own Business While Playing Xbox

By A Friend • November 21, 2025

There I was, playing Xbox when I got a message. I don't know who or why, because I don't play online.

But I responded.

It was a kid having some personal issues and didn't have anyone to talk with. So we chatted a few hours and then he said he had to go. I wished him a great day and that was it.

Then last year I get a message. This is verbatim from the message.

Kid: I just want you to know you saved my life like 9 years ago.

Me: How?

Kid: Long story but you talked me out of taking my own life back in like 2013 when I was like 8 years old. Now I'm 19 years old and living my best life and engaged to my high school sweetheart.
