Dear best friend,
Having a best friend like you is second to none. You are the first person I turn to for absolutely everything. I am honestly not sure what I would do if I didn't have you to update minute by minute what is going on with my life, or to constantly tell you everything I overthink for days that probably won't even be relevant in a month. You are my person, you constantly save me from myself, and I am eternally grateful.
I know we have been through a lot. Every friendship has its ups and downs, and we definitely have had our fair share. But I am so thankful to be able to still call you my best friend. But in reality, you are way more than just a friend; you are my family. You are my person, you are the one I can turn to no matter the situation, and I know you will always have my back, the same way you know I have yours. You are the first person I turn to when things get tough and you never fail to leave me with a smile on my face.
There is no one else I would want to take random four-hour car rides with, just to end up right back where we started. Not to mention spending hours on FaceTime right after being together all day. I cannot even begin to thank you enough for always knowing when something is wrong, even if I refuse to admit it, and then cheering me up. Every exciting, funny or adventurous story and memory I have includes you. It's pretty easy to sit back and think of all the amazing memories we have made together and I cannot wait to make more.
Thank you for being you. Thank you for being there when things get hard, thank you for being patient with me. Thank you for accepting who I am and loving me unconditionally. Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on and a BIG thank you for not laughing at my ugly crying face. Thank you for going out of your way for me, and actually wanting to be there for me and always being willing to talk things out with me. Thank you for loving me, even the things I'm the most insecure about, and for helping me love myself too.
I can't explain how much it means to me knowing that you are always there for me and cheering me on. You are the person who picks me up when I'm down. You give me the extra boost I sometimes need and you never fail to believe in me, even when I sometimes struggle believing in myself. You are one of the most compassionate people I have ever met, and you never fail to make time for me, especially when I need you the most.
A true best friend never leaves your side no matter how difficult things get. I don't think I can even begin to put into words how grateful I am to have a person like you in my life, I genuinely have no idea what I would ever possibly do without you. Thank you for being you, because I wouldn't want to be best friends with anyone else.
Love,
Your best friend
