Report: young guy committed suicide in Armenia region Kotayq due to “unrequited gay love story”

Reports say (shamshyan.com) that young guy (25 yrs old) committed suicide in Armenia region Kotayq due to unrequited love to another guy (20 yrs old) who he was communicating with via Odnoklassniki social network.

Reports of suicide are sadly not uncommon in Armenia. Normally, we hardly ever know the reason why people commit suicide. Of course, this report is difficult to confirm, and there may be additional factors too but some sources say that it’s true... Interestingly, perhaps this is one of the rarest occasions that not only the alleged reason of suicide was mentioned, but that reason was “unrequited gay love story”.

Very sad...

I talked to a guy that said he knew both of these guys. He says this wasn't the first time the guy was trying to commit suicide, and his friend stopped his first attempt.

The reason was the 20 years old one was leaving fro Russia, and the other one said he'd end his life if he did...

Sad indeed. I thought there might be some bullying and stuff, but the guy says the two 'were seen as normal', and that 'we didn't know anything about their homosexuality' before the tragedy happened.

I think there was another case last year. Maybe not unrequited love, but my gaydar's saying it had to do with the guy's sexuality, but the official version says nothing a propos this, just a case of suicide.

I kind of appreciate shamshyan.com also mentioning the reason, and glad to see that there's also kinda genuine lamentation and understanding for the deceased, as it's not only about hatred in the comments section of the story...
