How To Recover From A Fictional Character's Death?

we've all read a book or a manga, or watched an anime or a movie or a tvshow. and we come to like this character, this one character that we loved the way they talk, they way the react to a situation and their appearances of course, and they of their thinking and sometimes they are the ones who encourage us and help us get over the obstacles we face in life.

but then, they leave, they die in their universe, you will cry,  you will actually not believe it until they confirm it and then you feel that there is a big hole being dug in your heart, tears will be shed, you will notice your bed is full of tissues that you used,  chocolate and ice cream will be needed. 

you would want to talk to someone about it, tweet about it, write about it, sing about it, or just think about it.

you would come with so many solutions and possibilities that he or she could be back. but then no matter what, you will have to admit that they won't.

someone said to me "You Dont" when i asked "Does anyone remember how to get over a character's death?" 

its true, after a while you would feel fine and in peace, but when someone brings it up or when you see a post in tumblr about it or a tweet about it, you just start having this heartache all over again, which is annoyingly painful.

those characters do make a difference in your life, their words brings you hope and help you to keep fighting no matter how things got worse. 

"will we miss them?"

OFCOURSE!

"do we have to let go"

Not necessarily. its ok, not to let go. 

in fact they will always live in our memories. 

if we look back maybe they had a reason to not exist in their universe. there won't be a reason for each character, but it took me time to realize that:

Ace (from One Piece) had to sacrifice himself to save luffy,

and so luffy can continue his adventures and become The Pirate King.

this the only example and the only character that i though i might share in this post. there won't be always a reason why this character had to die, but you will only figure it out later?  maybe?
