An Open Letter To My Snapchat Best Friends

Because sometimes seeing you once a day just isn't enough.

An Open Letter To My Snapchat Best Friends
Hana Spaven

Dear Snapchat Best Friends,

I cannot even begin to express the comfort it brings me to know that you're only one selfie away. Every time your name flashes on my lock screen, I feel like our bond has grown a little stronger.

Our snapstreaks mean more to me than you could ever imagine. The dedication it takes to exchange a selfie each and every day reminds me of the true commitment of friendship. Three days ago, who would have thought that we would come so far?

Sometimes life gets in the way and it's difficult to keep in touch, which is why I feel so fortunate to have this bond with you. At the end of a long day, I know I can count on you. After all, you are my best friend, and there's nothing like hearing you sing with the bee filter, even though you sound bad.

I feel that we have gotten to know each other so well, from the bathroom selfies to the blurry pictures of your breakfast. I feel so fortunate to have this glimpse into your life, and that I can give you a glimpse of mine in return. We don't feel the need to filter our lives for each other to see, and that's what I love the most about our bond.

I can trust you like no other. I feel confident enough to send you unflattering pictures straight out of the shower and trust that you will not screenshot. But most of all, I feel #noshame double-snapping you. I know you won't judge me.

Your ability to climb to the top of my friend's list amazes me each and every day. It demonstrates such tenacity and confirms to me that you're in it for the long haul. You have an unmatched dedication that I cherish each and every day, and I want nothing more than to secure the same spot on your list.

It's upsetting when I notice that you have been temporarily replaced, and I begin to question whether our friendship is for real, or if it was simply a four-day fling. Sometimes we grow apart, and that's a sad but true part of life. But when you do climb back up and reclaim your spot, I know that you're not playing around.

Sometimes we're blessed enough to share best friends, and it reminds me of what a small world we live in... and how I managed to get so lucky to live in it with you.

Stay beautiful, and I'll see you later.

Love always,

Your Snapchat BFF

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
