Breaking Up With A Friend Is So Much Worse Than Breaking Up With A Boy

If you've ever been through a friend breakup, you know the pain is real.

Breaking Up With A Friend Is So Much Worse Than Breaking Up With A Boy

I'm not going to lie. I miss you. I miss you a lot. I miss being able to text you and talk about anything. If I had to do over our relationship, maybe things would be different.

Thank you for being the person who was always there for me. You were the person I called when everything was falling apart. You were there through breakups and makeups and breakups again. You knew every single gory detail, the good and the bad, and you loved me anyway. You supported me like no one else.

Honestly, I miss being able to walk into a room and for us to have a conversation with just one look. I miss us being on the same page. There are so many times when something happens and you're the first person I want to talk to about it.

It's like accidentally grabbing a curling iron. It's completely unexpected and shocking, and the pain lasts longer than the split second that your hand touches the barrel.

Breaking up with a friend is so much harder than breaking up with a boy. The worst kind of breakup is when things just fizzle out and fall apart. I wonder now if things could have been different if I would have been more open, more willing to talk about the things that were truly going on in my life.

I believe in soul mates. Not just romantic ones, but the type of friends that you just connect with. It's like the friendship is just meant to be. That's how I felt about us.

We have so much history. We've shared so many times together, and it kills me that those memories bring me sadness instead of joy. I wish I could update you about my life - about everything - but I think it's a little too late. I just hope you're doing okay.

You were my Meredith Grey and Christina person. That's just it. We were inseparable. We knew everything about each other. We had so many inside jokes because, let's be honest, I'm kind of hilarious. Sorry (not sorry). It's so depressing to think of those little jokes, those little memories, that have died out.

We don't talk crap about the same people anymore, which sounds bad, but we're both awful gossips. We don't have late night conversations or lunch dates. We don't have anything because I'm not in your orbit and you're not in mine.

It's 3:00 AM, and I have class in the morning. But here's to hoping that our paths will cross again someday when the time is right. Because you don't forget about soul mates.

It's not a goodbye. It's a see ya later.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
