this is just such a strange feeling bc obviously i haven’t supported him or his actions for years but one direction was such a big part of my life like???
a reminder that you’re allowed to show empathy and mourn someone who was once a big part of your life years ago but isn’t anymore. that’s human. and you can also feel sad but also think of and respect victims of someone’s actions. you can feel both at the same time.
For all of its faults, 2010-2015 was such a magical, golden moment in time. And for those of us who were apart of it, feel solace in the fact we will always have that and it will always be apart of our lives growing up
the worst part is none of my friends or family will understand the grief I'm going through, they will never get how much this has affected me because he's just a celebrity right? no, he was so much more for me
i have been a part of the one direction community since i was 13. i am 26 now. for half of my life, they have been a vital part in my life. i am sending love to all my one direction girlies right now who, like me, are navigating the news and processing their feelings.
