How is college? Did you end up liking your roommate, or are they totally weird like you were worried they might be? Is it everything you hoped it would be, and do I ever cross your mind to call and tell all about it? These are the questions I'd ask you if we were still talking.

Looking back, I don't think I could have, or would have wanted to, finish out my high school experience with anyone else by my side. Sure, we got mad at each other sometimes, and didn't always agree, but I wouldn't trade that for any other person by my side as we walked down the aisle, dressed in our caps and gowns, leaving our last mark on our tiny little school. After all, who else could I confide to when I was feeling nervous about my future, or excited about everything that it held. Do you remember all the Friday night basketball games we'd go to together? Or coming to get me out of class solely for the fact that I was bored out of my mind? There wasn't a place we didn't go together: sporting events, friends' houses, breakfast dates. People knew us more as a duo than two people apart.

I guess I spent so much time worrying and planning for my future, I never got to think about ours. About how we wouldn't be in the same school five out of the seven weekdays, seeing each other between classes and a short drive away on the weekends. We were always just together, but now that's a little harder to do as we head to different schools, make new friends, and create new lives. I hope that when you meet new people at college, they realize what an amazing person they have just come across, and that they never let the friendship fall through like we did. I'm not mad, and I hope you aren't either, but more importantly I hope that this is not goodbye for good.

So what does our future hold now? Knowing our friendship is no longer as strong as it once was? Will we still do all of the things we had planned? Will we talk when we run into each other? Or will our friendship remain a great memory, and will the closest communication we have be liking each other's Instagram posts? I'm still rooting for you, and all the accomplishments I know your future holds, whether I am with you, or apart.

These are the things I would tell you, if we were still talking.
