99% of people think like this commenter… and it’s scary

I think it probably is partly our age. Maybe lives lived slightly less on social media.

I imagine people do leave messages behind to tell people they love them one last time. To warn people ahead of time though- I imagine is rarer. I don't know how common it is for people to threaten suicide too. But, I guess they have to do it more cryptically.

And this is why I never quite know how to take certain texts and posts I get and why I get so nervous about accidentally offending someone when I text or post here.
I am actually getting a tiny bit anxious wondering if I have to now watch out for these things and consider that it might be an ominous warning.

I got 3 different interpretations of what she meant in my Whatsapp group alone. I think it is cryptic enough to be interpreted 20 different ways. I can't even figure out how the commenter interpreted it. Or even if it's just banter. I think I've spent too much time on it. My conclusion is pretty much any response to something that cryptic is acceptable.

I think that we are interpreting the commenter differently. I thought that they meant that if their friend randomly texted "i love you" they literally wouldn't do anything even if they suspected suicide.

i don't have a social circle but if I made a social media account with family and friends, I doubt 61 people would like a post saying I felt suicidal but I do understand your point. The devil is in the detail
