An Open Letter To My Ex- Best Friend

There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about you.

An Open Letter To My Ex- Best Friend
Blood Sisters

Dear Ex- Best Friend,

We haven't talked in about five months... Five months of silence, five months of laughs without you, five months of not knowing what is going on. I can assure, loosing a best friend is worse than loosing a significant other. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about what happened. Everyday I have that urge to text you, to tell you everything about my day. Everything that I'm stressing about. A year ago, I would have never thought we would not be talking. This time last year, we were getting our Halloween costumes together. You were Superman, I was Batman. I see irony in that. Superman and Batman didn't get along... just like us now. We drifted, drifted in opposite paths that seem to never meet again.

This isn't the first time we stopped talking. Our path originally drifted back in March. For the same reason we aren't talking now. We walked the same path for about two months. Then I blew up.

I am still shocked that our friendship is over. I know its my fault, but now I wish everything would go back to how it used to be. I miss the long car rides. I miss the late night road trips. I miss the shopping trips. I miss the fog chasing. I miss the Snapchat streaks. Everything about our relationship, I miss.

Like I said, this is liking a break up with a significant other. You basically were my other half. We did everything together, we were inseparable. Some days, I wish you would just show up at my house like you used to. Yelling: "get in the car, we are going on adventure!" Our car rides were the best. Blasting music, telling stories, getting everything off our chest. We were basically dating. Talking all the time about everything. There was no one else I wanted to be with.

I miss you. I really do. I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry for stopping our friendship. But it wasn't the same. We both changed. We were different people, and we still are. There were changes that neither of us could handle. I thought it would be better for the both of us if we just stopped our friendship. But now I am miserable everytime I think about what we used to be. I sound like I am talking about a break up, I basically am. If we could go back to the way things used to be, I would in a heart beat. But I know if we tried to be friends now, it wouldn't be the same. Life went on after we stopped talking. Things changed even more. We replaced each other, found new best friends. But nothing will ever replace that relationship we had. Nothing. Not one person. As much as we think someone can replace each other, it will never happen. We can try as hard as we want, but no one will have the experience and the memories that we share.

I hope that one day our paths will cross again, maybe we will walk on the same path again. It will be a long journey before then. We will walk across some broken roads. But if we can fix our relationship and come to terms with each other, our friendship could be as strong as it once was; maybe even stronger.

I am really sorry for what happened. Like I said, not a day goes by that I don't miss you, or think about you. I still love you. And I wanted to let you know I am ready. Ready to mend and create that friendship again. I have forgiven you, but I know you may never forgive me... I'm sorry, I really am. I miss you and want you back in my life. I want that sister bond back. I love you and always have, never stopped. I hope you see this, I hope we can fix our relationship. But until then... good luck, and best wishes.

I love you so much...

Sincerely,

Your Ex- Best Friend

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
