Knowing each other since middle school means knowing a lot of things that others do not. We went through our awkward phase together, had our good times, our bad times. There for it all. All I know is, I will never cross you the wrong way, you know too much.
When we first met, back in middle school, I did not know that I was meeting my forever friend. In middle school we experienced our first crushes who we made weird code names for, dressed absolutely ridiculously, looked absolutely ridiculous, but we did it together. No one knows about all of the weird inside jokes we had, or our sleepover traditions. Except our moms…but that's OK. Today we look back on all that and cringe, wondering what the hell we were thinking.
Then in high school, we branched out. Made more friends, hung out in groups. But again, still had each other. I knew all throughout high school that if I needed something, you were the one I could go to. We had all of our friends, but you were my go-to. Graduation grew closer, and I had to imagine going away two hours without my best friend; the person who has been there for me for most of my life at this point. But we’ve made it work.
Here at college, hours and miles apart from each other, you're still the one I go to. You still know all of my embarrassing awkward stage stories (and have pictures), still know all of my secrets I held in high school, and today know all of my secrets and fears I have now. You’re the one person I can go to and not have to worry about being judged, the one I can sit in a room with and eat tons of food with, the one I can never get sick of no matter how much time we spend together. Do we sound like a couple? Probably. Do I care? No. Can’t wait for the day we live together in a perfect apartment, the day we’re in each other's weddings, and the day our kids become best friends. You know too much, I know too much. There’s no getting rid of each other now.
Love,
Your Best Friend
