Dear Best Friend,
When we first met, I knew there was something special about you. You were quiet and somewhat hard to figure out, but your genuine smile and laugh made me feel at home. Talking to you made me forget any pain inside. For once, I felt special, and that was an experience that I will never forget. To this day, you make me the happiest person in the world. You’re my best friend. You’re my rock.
I have very clear memories of us watching TV and me eating all of your Oreos. They were so good, I just couldn’t help myself. I remember how you’d look without your glasses. How could I forget those gorgeous hazel eyes? Someday, you’re going to make a girl very happy, and she will fall in love with everything about you.
I appreciate all of our late talks whenever I’m feeling sad or lonely. I know I’m a handful, but you somehow manage to deal with me. Even when I’m impossible. We have been through a lot, but we always come out stronger. You may not realize this, but without you, I would be lost. People like you don’t come along very often, and I believe that we crossed paths for a reason.
Whenever I laugh, I want to be laughing with you. And most of the time, when I smile, it’s because of you. Sometimes I wonder if you fully understand just how important you are to me. I know I should tell you more often, and I want you to know how grateful I am for you. I’ll stand by you, and I know that you’ll do the same for me.
I’ll always appreciate the silly pictures you send me and all the jokes you tell. And I’ll always appreciate all the good memories I have with you. Remember when you let me borrow your favorite hoodie? Actually, borrow isn’t the word because it’s still hanging in my closet. But hey, when I wear it, I think of you, and those are some pretty great thoughts. There were days where I would lay on your bed eating fruit snacks while you played your guitar. While lying there, I would just admire everything about you. You don’t even know how special you really are. Almost two years since the day we met, and just take a look at how far we have come.
You know me better than anyone else does. You have seen every single side of me, and you’ve never left me abandoned or unloved. There were times where our friendship was on the rocks, and I was crushed. The thought of ever losing you is terrifying, and I don’t even know what I would do. I love you and who you are as a person, and nothing in this world will ever change that. We have made a lot of great memories, and I can’t wait to see what is ahead.
You’re the one who will always pick me up when I’m down. And I knew from day one that you were going to be the person to change my life. Always remember that.
It was you. It will always be you.
Forever and always,
Your best friend
