Dear Old Friend,

I used to think that you would be my friend forever. I used to know everything that went on in your life from the guys you would talk to, to the adventures you had, to the classes you were taking. Now, however, it is the complete opposite because I now know nothing, that is going on in your life, the guys you talk to, the adventures you have, and the classes you are taking. Are you still friends with the people we used to know? No one even remembers our friendship; I do not even know if you do.

We completely drifted. We became completely different people. I do not have the same interests that we used to have and I doubt that you remember what we used to listen to. I know I had exaggerated how much I used to agree with you and now I think that you did too.

It seems like our friendship was like a lifetime ago but I remember some of the laughs we shared as if it was half an hour ago. The exact words are not clear but what it was about and the ideas and intent between us was. W used to hang out for six hours just because. Everything we did, we were so excited about it. We didn’t think of the damage or the repercussions of our ideas, we just fantasized them. We built a pillow forts because we had the time to. We had a great time. Not a care in the world. I am not friends with you anymore because we made different choices but I am left with nothing but awesome memories. The little choices we made that made us close. I do not regret any of them.

Thanks for the smiles that we shared secretly in class. Thanks for secrets you entrusted me with. Thanks for being my best friend, even if it didn't last forever. And most importantly, thanks for being a part in shaping who I am today.

To the many friends that I just lost touch with: our friendship didn't end badly, it just didn't last forever. Maybe one day we will get back in touch and if we do, I will be so happy and so welcome to it!

With tons of love,

Your Old Friend
