Later.
I should have dealt with this a couple of days ago, but maybe I thought after a few days of sitting on it, it wouldn't sting as much. I was wrong. I tried to say something at the time but it didn't go through so here it is, plain and simple.
Your comment to me the other day was uncalled for and wrong. I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, thinking that maybe you just said it because you were trying out the friendship that I kept asking you to try for. But even my best friend would never joke about something like that to me and feel good about it afterwards. I was so taken back by it that I didn't even know what to say, but it didn't take long for the feelings to sink in. You made me feel lower about myself just in those few words than I've felt in a long time. Ironic how just a few months ago, you were the one that made me feel the best about who I was as a person.
You may think this is an overreaction; you may even be confused as to what exactly I am talking about. But if you are, I'd be surprised. You knew it would cut me. You wanted it to. Just like many of the other things you've said to me since we started talking again. I don't know why I even wanted a friendship with you in the first place but I suppose I can blame that on the guilt I carried around with me for ending what we had. You don't let me forget that either, do you? But you know what? I don't owe anything to you anymore. We're not the same people we were then and you are certainly not the same man to me now. In fact, you're the complete opposite. Please remove me from your life; we're nothing but memories to each other now.
