If someone would have told me four years ago that I would have met one of my best friends over the internet I would have thought that they were crazy. I would have also been wrong. Almost three years ago I met the one person that became a huge part of my life, and for that I am thankful.

You are there for me at times I don't want to talk to anyone. No matter what I was dealing with you have always texted, called, and video-chatted me to make sure that everything was alright. I'm lucky that I've found someone who is genuine and cares so much about my well-being. You reached out to me even when my friends who are physically in my life did not. Thank you for being there for me when I felt so alone.

You mean the world to me in ways that are so hard to describe. I look forward to sending packages back and forth to you and whenever I get to see your name flash across my phone screen. I love this type of communication that we have that is so different than what I have on a daily basis with people next to me. I'm attached to you and our constant conversation. Even if we don't see each other every day, we always talk. I have no idea what I would do without you now, my life just wouldn't feel right without you in it.

Most people don't understand me when I say that I have an "internet best friend" or when I bring you up in conversations, but that's okay. I understand our friendship and know what to say. I'm still hoping that we'll meet one day.
