When I think of my childhood, I think of you. You were the person I went to for everything, guy drama, middle school awkwardness, even on our first day of high school we walked through the door together. All these amazing memories we share I still think about every day, middle school band (I can't even count the number of instruments that we went through), 7th grade L.A., oh, and don’t forget the time in the library sophomore year.
When did life become so complicated, though? As time went on we grew more and more apart, and before I knew it I didn’t even know who you were anymore.
At first it was really hard for me, seeing you with your new friends, not being able to call you when I desperately wanted to, and most of all I missed your infectious laugh. I really thought I had lost you and we were never going to be able to get back to how things were. It’s rare to find friend like you, one that can understand what you’re thinking by just glancing at my facial expression, but distance was hard and we let ignorant things come between us. But I swear it never will happen again.
The day that you reached out to me gave me hope. We laughed like we used to, we reminisced on all the memories we share, and both agreed that we missed each other. It didn’t hit me until that moment about how much I value our friendship.
I want to say I’m sorry; I’m sorry that I didn’t fight hard enough for you. And I can promise you that it will never happen again. You are the type of friend that I will always fight for because I don’t want to ever not have you in my life. A friend like you is one that I want in my wedding, and to be friends with until the end, and now that reality seems possible again.
So thank you for being one of my best friends, because my life would never be the same without you in it. I cannot wait to make more memories, and share more laughs. And as always, see you soon.
Love,
Your Best Friend
