To my best friend,

Thank you for being the greatest gift I could have ever asked for. For five years, you have been my biggest supporter, my rock, and my better half. You have loved me unconditionally even on my worst days, and I can't thank you enough. I know most of the time I'm a handful and very hard to deal with, yet you are still here. Your kind heart has taught me more than I think you realize. You have taught me how to love someone for exactly who they are, how to put others ahead of myself, and how to be a better person each and every day. Every day I wake up hoping to make you proud and to be the girl you deserve. You make me want to be a better person not only for myself but for you. You deserve the absolute world, and if I could, I would give it to you. You deserve a life full of endless laughter, unwavering support, and unconditional love. You have given me each of these things and more.

Despite the hardships we have faced, you will always have a special place in my heart and I am willing to go through anything for you. You've taught me how to stay strong, fight for what I love, and to never ever give up on something just because it's hard. No matter how many days, weeks, or even months we may spend apart, my heart will always be with you. I will always continue to work on this relationship if it means I'll have you by my side day after day once again.

From our date nights to adventures, and even car rides, you have created the absolute best memories with me. I will always cherish the time we spend together, especially now that we are away at college. I will forever love listening to you sing in the car especially to "Die a Happy Man" and you quizzing me on my pathetic sense of direction. I'll always love everything from our date nights in watching Netflix to our beach trips and hiking adventures. You always know how to have a great time no matter what we are doing and I admire that so much. You make the best of everything, which makes every minute with you special.

I admire your ability to make every moment count, your positivity, and carefree demeanor. I love your willingness to put others first and your selflessness. I adore your smile and your warm hugs. I admire your work ethic and dedication to doing what you love. I appreciate your passion for everything you do, especially everything you do for me. But most importantly, I love that you love me.

I love you with all of my heart and cannot thank you enough for all that you do. You truly are my best friend and will be forever, no matter what happens.

Love,

Your girl
