Dear best friend,

Thank you for staying by my side all these years and still loving me for who I am, weird corks and all. I know you’re hundreds of miles away, but I know that I can count on you for anything at any time. For that, I am grateful.

We have shared many memories, from living under the same roof, to living hours apart. You know my life better than anyone else and I am thankful to have such a loyal friend like you in my life.

I know we don’t text every day, but I think that is what makes our friendship so valuable. We could go a week or two without talking but pick up right where we left off. We are complete opposites, but alike in so many ways.

Thank you for listening to me cry about stupid things and always being a phone call away. Thank you for surprising me at times and letting me sleep in your bed whenever I get lonely. Thank you for loving my crazy-self and defending me at all costs. Thank you for keeping it real with me, especially when I need to hear it.

Thank you for sharing your family with me and letting me come over even when you’re not home just so I can eat your good snacks and snuggle with your little brother and sister when I need some comfort. Thank you for understanding my ways and not questioning my actions. Thank you for being silent when I just need someone to listen to me and thank you for speaking when I need to be spoken to.

There aren’t very many people I would be able to live with, share the same bed with, and grow up with, besides you. I can’t wait to share our beautiful memories with our children and their children.

I hope you know how much I appreciate our friendship and that I will cherish the relationship we have forever. Thank you for being the best long distance best friend I could ever ask for.

With love,

Your best friend
