Oh, honey, that's tough. Losing those you love in whatever fashion is always hard. Mourning is important...don't let anyone tell you not to cry, or not to feel bad or sad. Feeling the bad is crucial to moving on to the place where you can think about him and your good times.

Russians are people too, some of them just as young and just as loved. Old men plan and pay for wars, young men and women fight them, often wen they're not sure what they're fighting about.

There may be no way t make it make sense,no cause that semms worth the life of someone precious to you. The situation you describe may be even harder, because you're not a widow or a sister or a mother, just someone whose life was made richer by his presence.

Hang inthere, love. The sun will shine again.

I'm sorry for your loss, very sorry. There's no words that can really help that grief, I fear. And I congratulate you for not hating all russians because of it - it's just the russian government being vile & evil that caused it, not all russians.

So sorry to read this...he was your friend and will always be in your thoughts and in your heart.
Remember him in a good way....
