Long time no see!! Or talk, or acknowledgement of each other's existence.
You may think this is rude, but I'm not sorry for anything that happened between us. Whatever was said, needed to be said at the moment and neither of us should regret saying what was on our minds. We've known each other for years, but the person we knew is so much different from who we are now. Friendships can be like wine and get better with age. However, our friendship fell into the category of milk being neglected and going sour in a fridge. You were the milk and I was the owner of the fridge. You wanted me to give you attention but at the time there were other options. (Sorry for calling you spoiled milk but I had to continue the metaphor).

The truth of the matter is, people drift apart. Moving ten hours away probably didn't help much but, that's where I had to go to pursue goals I set for myself. If our friendship was solid it wouldn't have mattered how far away our schools are from each other and you know that. I have friends that I see every four or five months and we pick up right where we left off. In high school we were inseparable and could make the best out of any situation. We never fought, we were never cruel to each other, but we were also never 100% real. I never really mentioned if something bothered me, and you did the same. When you did bring something up, it was always you with someone else against me and that's never a fair encounter.
Hindsight is 20/20 and my hindsight tells me that our friendship was doomed as soon as we threw those grad caps in the air. We're not the same people now, that we were in that moment. Not even a year of college changed us into two completely different people, and you saw that I was different by Thanksgiving. Or at least you told me I was different. I thought I was changing into someone I could be proud of. I became someone that doesn't take any bullshit from anyone no matter how close we are. I traveled to see you and you couldn't give me more than an hour or two and that didn't sit well with me.
So, in conclusion, I'm happy to see you moving forward in life like I am without getting in each other's way. Of course I'll remember all the good times we had and blah, blah, blah. But if we do see each other at any point in future, just know that I am happy for you. I don't want to or need to physically tell you or like your posts on any form of social media and I don't expect anything from you. We're better off without each other and as long as we both know that, I think we'll be ok.
