There came a time in my life when all I needed in my life was a friend. I just wanted someone who could make me laugh or dry my tears. I needed someone who I could trust; someone I knew would stand by me and be there for me when I needed them.
It was you I needed.
I can't begin to count the nights that we've stayed up laughing at senseless things or the times that you've held me while I cried. We've shared so many moments together that are never going to go away. You've gotten me through hard times and you've introduced me to so many more good times. You've been nothing short of a blessing in my life.
You've been beside me through everything for the past two years, and I can't thank you enough for that. But as we're both getting ready to graduate, I can't help but already feel a separation coming.
I still need you.
Sometimes I just need that extra push to get me through a tough week at school. Sometimes I just need a night spent with my friend watching Netflix and ignoring job applications and upcoming assignments. Sometimes I just want to get everything off my chest only to find that I can either tell my dog or keep it bottled up inside.
It's hard for me to imagine the possibility of us going different directions in life. Although I know it's pretty much inevitable, I don't want to accept that reality. You're my best friend, my partner in crime, my sidekick, and so much more. I've gotten so used to having you that I'm terrified to lose you. Please don't leave me.
I'm always going to need you.
I'm always going to need the person I can trust my life with. I'm always going to need your advice, whether it's on what clothes to buy or what guys to date. It's always going to be you that I want to turn to.
I know after we graduate college we're probably not going to be living within a mile of each other, and that's pretty saddening. We may separate in distance but please, don't leave me. Don't leave me without someone to call at night when I think of something funny that happened to me that day. Don't leave me without someone to give me guidance and positive words.
Please don't leave me without the friend I need.
P.S. I will always be here for you too; I promise.
