you know what, OP? I am going to take this secret as 100% serious, because for many, many years of my life, I thought the same.

I was a teenager, I was in LOVE with him (...still am, tbh), and Courtney Love is, well, Courtney Love. She's loud and obnoxious - kind of an asshole, even - and everything about their relationship seemed weird and like a sensitive guy getting with a mean bitch. And his death was JUST suspicious enough and her band got big JUST soon enough after he died that I was like YO. SHE HAD SOMETHING THE FUCK TO DO WITH IT. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT BUT SOMETHING IS TOTALLY FISHY HERE AND I DON'T CARE IF I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO SEES IT

but see, then. I got older. and I know this sounds totally condescending but no, for real, I got older and when I was 19 I had my first (and worst, and most suicidal) depression spiral. I started to understand what he'd been going through for most of his LIFE. Because make no mistake, there are repeated references to depression in countless Nirvana songs, in his journal entries, in his interviews. Kurt was not mentally okay, he was hurting deeply, since his early teens at the very latest. It's really rough to look at all the evidence and be like "that guy almost-definitely killed himself," but dude. He almost definitely did. It is NOT out of character, as much as I wanted to believe it was. Just a month or so before he died, there was another attempt in which he got drunk and took a bunch of rohypnols. It put him in the hospital and it wasn't even his first attempt. It breaks my fucking heart but he did it.

and when I realized that, I also started to think about what it would be like to watch the man you love, the beautiful sweet gentle soul you married, go through that; and be absolutely powerless to help. Courtney Love is still a confrontational jerk who seems tough as nails and probably is, but she had a rough childhood and life just like he did, and she was trying to create a family to replace the broken shitty one she grew up in and surround herself with a new one to love and love her, just as much as he was. and then she lost him. he just slipped through her fingers. I'll never love her, but I feel like a jerk for having been so shitty to her (to friends, and on the internet, and in my own head) cause I mostly just feel bad for her now. She's not perfect, she's just a person too but think about it - it's so sad, so sad, SO sad.
