I went to a show last night with one of my best friends and as we were waiting for food afterwards, Zayn’s name came on the marquee for a show he’s doing on 10/30 and the two girls next to us said “Awww Zayn” just as my friend and I were echoing the same sentiment. One of the girls looked at me and we knew. We knew what we were all feeling.

I know it’s probably weird to say something beautiful has come out of this tragedy, but the collective sadness and grief we feel is a testament to how incredibly important the boys were to us as fans, especially for those in their most formidable years. How truly infectious their energy and camaraderie were for us to foster the connections we did, whether at concerts, over the internet, or just in spirit. How magical it was to exist in the same space they did for that short amount of time…

I experienced this kind of community on a smaller scale with NSYNC when I was growing up. They were how my childhood best friends and I bonded. Who liked Justin more? What was their best song and why was it Girlfriend (feat. Nelly)? Were we really Team NSYNC or secretly Team BSB? I’m sure if the internet was more developed during that era, we would have been publishing the awfully written cliched fanfictions that plagued our dreams. It was silly. Mistakes were made - JC is OBVIOUSLY the best member of that band - and lots of tears were shed when breathing the same air as they were. I never got to experience the latter, but the 1D shows felt awfully close to what I imagine they were like.

We’re all grieving for ourselves and the rest of the boys and Liam’s family. We’re all grieving the person we knew and the band that we loved to the point where we can just say someone’s name in a crowd of strangers and instantly connect. In this moment, we are truly not alone. The boys have allowed us to build a community around them and honestly, that’s pretty special.

I haven’t been active on here in the way that I was when the band was together, or even when they all went solo in the beginning, but going through my blog has been almost cathartic. I wish we could have reminisced with each other under more joyous circumstances, but for now, we have each other.

Be kind to yourself.

The worst part about Liam Payne dying is that people are posting about “the switch up is crazy”

Like no. He was an abuser and made horrible decisions, but nobody wanted him to die. He was getting hate for an INCREDIBLY valid reason, but we all recognized that he needed mental and physical help. He needed to go to rehab. He needed to get away from drugs and alcohol and improve upon himself away from the public. No one wanted him to die.

We’re not mourning the life of an abuser, we are mourning the part of him that we adored and looked up to for a massive part of our childhood/ teenage years. He was a huge part of how I was introduced to my love of music. And yes, he did horrible things and made horrible decisions and over the last few years has been anything but admirable, but none of us wanted this.

Maya didn’t want this. And everyone saying that it’s her fault can actually go burn in hell. She likely already blames herself enough. She likely already wishes she hadn’t spoken up about it out of the guilt that she likely feels. You guys commenting all over the socials about how this is her fault and “are you happy now?” Are actually horrible people.

A 7 year old boy just lost his father. A woman just lost her long term boyfriend. Two parents just lost their son. Several young children just lost their uncle. Show some fucking respect. Joking about it and hating on people who had nothing to do with what happened is not doing anything but twist the knife for the people who this has ACTUALLY effected.
