An Open Letter To My Long Distance Best Friend
Amanda Merrell

Dear Best Friend,

I remember the day we met like it was yesterday. I knew from that day on that we were going to have an amazing friendship that was going to last a very long time. From our shopping trips to our dinner dates, movie nights to late night drives, we've always had the best time together and laughed until we cried.

I miss our memories and our random adventures. I miss hanging out with you after school, going out to eat at our favorite restaurant and going home and binge watching Pretty Little Liars until we fell asleep. I miss staying up late and sharing our deepest secrets and biggest regrets, but most of all, I miss you.

Now we're several hundred miles away from each other and things are changing. We've both made new friends and new memories, and we don't communicate as often. But one thing remains the same- we still have each other’s back.

No matter how far away we are from each other, I know that you are still my best friend. If I ever need advice, you're the person I go to. If I never need to complain or cry, I know that you're the person that will listen to me. You're the person that will stay up with me at ungodly hours of the night and talk about life with me. In other words, you're my person.

I'm so thankful for our friendship and all of our memories. Whether we go four days or four months without talking, we can always pick up where we left off. Thank you for being my person and staying my best friend through the distance. No one can ever replace you. I love you, best friend.
