a letter to a former friend
Okay I feel like I need to write this for the sake of closure on this whole situation, let me start out by saying thank you and I'm not mad anymore, because being mad requires me to have an emotional attachment and I don't, I'm over it and I thank you for accompanying me to Portland to search for places, I don't think I would have found a better community if you hadn't. This in no way means that I forgive you or desire to have any sort of friendship with you from here on in it simply means its a non-issue, if I should see you when I'm visiting hermiston I'll say hi and continue on my way much as I would do with anyone I knew in high school and if you wanted to do the same that would be fine if you didn't that would also be fine. I'm doing really well in Portland and I fear that had you come with me you would have dragged me down, because I'd be comfortable hanging out with you and would not have stepped outside of my comfort zone and made really great friends so I thank you for that also. I won't lie and pretend that you didn't do a really shitty thing by bailing on me the day before I started class but it was an experience that only made me stronger in character and determination so in closing I honestly don't wish you any ill will and I hope that the rest of your life goes according to plan, hopefully your transfer comes through I know how concerned you were about that so I imagine you still are. Good luck with everything and thank you for some fun memories.
