I think we all went to school with a jock. The guy, or girl that was smart, good at sports, and thought they would go above and beyond all other students. I went to school with one and at one point we were best friends. So this is the open letter to the jock that's apparently too good to be my best friend..

You told me everything. I can count numerous times where you would call me and tell me everything your terrible girlfriend did or said. We would talk for hours and text all the time and everyone thought we would get together. I'm not sure when you stopped telling me everything, but you did and we haven't talked since.

You thought you were better than everyone. You didn't always think this. It just happened over time. Maybe it was that horrible girlfriend you had for too long. Maybe it was every time I told you, that you were better than her you thought I meant everyone. You aren't. You were better in school and sports and thought you would go to the best college, and you didn't.

You stepped on everyone. You really thought no one would notice how you used them. Again, you weren't always this way, I just don't know how it got this bad. You threw away all your "useless" friends for stuck up friends. You don't even talk to them anymore..

You didn't leave our town. All you wanted to do was be something. You wanted out of our small town and now you're more stuck than any of us. You are currently enrolled in a community college, but doing all your classes online because you don't want anyone to know.

You not only lost your friends, but you lost yourself.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
