A Letter To My Ex Best Friend

Best friend break ups are worse than boy breakups.

A Letter To My Ex Best Friend
Teeh Times

Hey you,

We haven’t spoken in awhile and I don’t know how I feel about that. I hate that we don’t talk anymore. You used to be my go-to. You were my ride or die, you were “My Person” and now we aren’t even friends on facebook. How did that happen? I don’t even remember the words exchanged the finalization of the termination of our friendship. Did I take it too far? Did you? I can’t remember. Sure I remember us fighting, I remember thinking you weren’t the same person anymore, but I just keep trying to figure out if it was really worth losing you as my best friend.

I miss you, but I also haven’t forgiven you yet. In some ways, a friend breakup is far worse than any boyfriend breakup I have ever endured. I think you broke my heart more than any guy ever could have. Probably because I told you more than I have ever told a guy. Through all the different guys and girl drama and everything in between, you were my person I ran to. I held you when you cried, I told you boys were stupid, I constantly reminded you how beautiful you were, when your other “best friends” weren’t giving you the support you needed, I would tell you they sucked and that I would always be there for you. It was always us against the world. I thought it was anyway. The biggest disappointment was being on the other side. It was you and your other best friends against me and I think that hurt more than seeing an ex with a new girlfriend. You weren’t my best friend anymore, and you didn’t have my back.

I think at the end of the day I appreciate what happened between you and me because it made me a little less trusting, I think everyone needs to go through that kind of heartbreak in their life. However I will never stop missing you, I will never stop grabbing my phone to text you something only you would understand, and I will never stop wishing we were still friends. I will always hope you are doing well and I will always be rooting for you. On some level I think we will always be best friends even if it is only from afar. We invested so much into each other’s lives, I will always be praying for your happiness and my heart will always hurt when I hear that things haven’t been going your way. Even though we don’t talk anymore and even though people might assume we hate each other now, I want you to know how deeply sorry I am and I hope you know I will always be cheering you on.

Love,

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.
