Scrolling through social media, I often interacted with the posts on my feed.
And when I came across a mutual friend’s selfie, my finger hovered over the like button back in 2018.

I’d known Robert, 35, for about five or six years – he worked with my ex-partner.
Having him on social media, I knew him well enough to say ‘hi’ if we ever passed each other in the street.
