Dumped man asks Facebook to not remove his 'last' post

Telling his ex-girlfriend where to find Christmas presents, a 20-year-old man left a last Facebook post hours before he was found dead. He requested the social media giant not to remove his message.

Kieran Lister from Leeds, Britain, posted the message apologising to his family and asking them to sell his belongings and give the money "to someone else that's in need", the Mirror reported.

Lister also requested Facebook not to remove his message in a hope it would be an "eye opener to the people that are looking for happiness".

"I don't know what to do anymore," he wrote in the post, clarifying to friends and family that he had recently split with his girlfriend but emphasising "this isn't her fault".

"Now we are separating I don't feel like I can cope without her full love any longer. She was and still is my everything. I don't think I will be able to get over this."

"I don't want to wait till I get over the situation because she's the only one that's ever made me truly happy," Lister said.

"This isn't (girlfriend's name) fault at all, we both just were not right for each other in the end. I did a lot of bad in the relationship that may have led up to this."

"From day one to the end, I should have cared the same as I did during happy times," Mirror cited his post as saying. "I guess people slowly move apart from each other and I would do anything to stop this."

"I know I'm being selfish considering I have my two families, my dog snoop, my reptiles and my princess (girlfriend's name)," the post read.

He posted the message on December 12, shortly after he was eported missing to police. The police found his body in the Cottingley area of Leeds on December 13.
