Do U Feel Robbed

Kinda like somebody just took your most prized possession? I kinda feel cheated out of seeing Prince grow old and graceful and having the respect of everyone. I feel like the world has changed now for the worse sad

I don't feel robbed, but I feel Prince was robbed of those things.

Yes. We were robbed of Prince's autobiography, and seeing more Piano and Mic show and just feeling good that he is out there on this earth at any moment, making it a better place. Plus of course new music and seeing him do interviews and whatever else.

.

And he was robbed of hopefully many more good years of his life, although was going to be a rocky road for awhile to chemically get over that addiction.

He wasn't ours to begin with,so robbed is a wrong choice of words. I just wish he was alive... no more than that. He meant so much for so many.

Yeah, I guess maybe it's not so much that *I* feel robbed, despite it feeling like that very intensely. But rather it's that the *world* was robbed.

I miss the guy. He was robbed of life. We lost our musical hero.

Prince probably feels robbed, although I am sure the happiness where he is now supercedes that feeling.

In my mind, he just went away to finally relax and enjoy the fruits of his labor. And we have the music he gave us to enjoy in the years to come.

Yes. This was 100% preventable. We've lost years of music and peformances we didnt need to lose.

Can't help but feel Prince got robbed of his life.
He had sooooo much still going for him.
His piano and microphone tour was something I was looking forward to seeing...his voice was so amazing!
Makes me feel sad to never have the chance to see him grow old and to enjoy what he was next.

It's always harder for those left behind. I look forward to reunions.

everything he would have done would have been gravy but I'm robbed of cherishing an artist in his elderly years when I'd still have cherished him from afar, so yes.

Definitely. I also feel robbed at the fact that I only got so little time compared to the majority of you all. I'm only 26. I was 13 when I fell in love with the man, that is not enough time. I legitimately get jealous when I read how many of you saw him 5,10,20+ times. I saw him twice and thought I had many more chances to see him in the future. I absolutely feel robbed.

From now on, 4 U I shall be wild 💜

Yes, of course. It's part of the anger phase in the grieving process. It's natural but I still wish we weren't having to go thru this. It's still so hard to accept that he's truly gone just like that. He was a treasure. My heart is still heavy.
It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN

This. He was never mine, never a possession. I'm just really glad he was around for all us weird black kids. :-D

I would have loved to thank him for that.

Yeah this, it was not his time yet, he still had so many plans and stuff to take care of, was actively performing and making music as always, not slowing down yet at all. I'd like to think some fucking administrative error was made in heaven ... dove
