Dear ________,
Remember the days we didn't care? We had so much fun. I remember the day we became friends. Elementary school had gone buy and there we were, 7th graders, same interests, different groups. It took us five minutes and a silly boyband to get over the differences of cliques and become friends. It all was downhill from there.
I remember all those afternoons we spent at your house in the kitchen making grilled cheese, drinking koolaid (not strawberry cause I'm allergic) and watching the Country Music station. I wasn't into it, but we had so much fun singing and dancing to "I Hope You Dance" that it didn't matter. I remember when we watched "Sixteen Candles" while braiding each others hair into tiny little braids just because it was "cool".
Do you remember when we wrote that hilarious fan fiction about the boybands? We thought it was so good at the time.
I still smile when I think of our singing group that didn't sing. But we knew if we could just learn those dances and send in a video tape, we would make it big.
I think of nights we would sit up and you would tell me about your real dad and your deepest fears. You would tell me about when you tried to find him, and when you finally did. I remember the tears you had when you would fight with your parents. I remember when you joined the swimming team and weren't allowed to quit, so I would go to practices with you, jsut so you wouldn't be alone.
I remember our many talks about boys (haha oh how I loved Robert LOL) and what you would do if you actually got to meet Justin Timberlake! I remember when you guys broke up and you cried and I was there for you. I remember when Robert broke up with me and I cried, and there you were, by my side. That what we were there for right? You, me, and Mark were the three musketeers. I thought we always would be.
The scariest night of my life was with you. The "tornado" that we had no idea was coming. My parents came and saved us. Remember how scared we were?
We were inseperable... days by the pool, nights on the phone, just hanging out, doing nothing was okay.
We started high school adn classes seperated us. Friends changed, groups switched, and somehow we lost sight of each other, Occasionally I saw the friendship try to rekindle but slowly we faded away from one another. Suddenly you hated me so much and without reason. I don't know now what you truley hate me for.
I say the mean words back just because it hurts me to hear the cruel things you have to say. I remember so many good things I could never hate you the way you hate me. I jsut wish we could have grown up instead of apart. You were my best friend at one point. I don't want to have so much animosity between us.
I am reaching out to you, not asking to be your friend, but to call a truce. I'm sorry for the way things ended up and the mean things I have said. I don't expect you to message me and say everything is okay. Honestly I don't want you to at all. Agreed or disagreed. I jsut wanted to say I'm sorry. If you read this and agree at all, just please, next time we see each other, lets not say anything. Just because we were so close. We were like sisters when we were kids. We're adults now and lets act that way.
I don't care what has been said about me, and I know there has been plenty. I forgive you whether you want the forgiveness or not. I hope you get everything in life you ever wanted. And once again, I'm sorry for the mean words I have said about you and others.
You and them all know who they are.
Till next time,
Di
