It's okay that we're not close anymore

Dear Everyone I Was Once Close With,

I don't hate you, I promise. No matter what it be that brought us apart, a falling out, just becoming distant and growing apart, physical separation, any of that. None of that has given me cause to dislike you, nor could I ever- because if you were once close to me, that alone qualifies you to have a reserved space in my heart. I hope you don't hate me either. In fact, chances are I'm still proud of your accomplishments and cheering you on from afar! Just because we don't talk as much as we used to doesn't mean that I can't support you!

With that being said, I don't need to cheer you on from afar. I can cheer you on right by your side if you want me to. I can still support you, I can still listen to you, I can still try to help you with anything you need, and I'll do it all happily and willingly. I'm only a text, call, message, conversation away. I may have wronged you, you may have wronged me, no matter we can work through it if you're willing, because I'm always open to it. If you don't want to, that's entirely understood too. Just know there's no hard feeling.

If I was close to you a while ago and we've distance since then, know that I am a changed person. Life happens and changes everyone, and that may have been the very reason we grew apart. That's okay! If you ever want to catch up and talk for a little bit, I'd love to. I'm still me, just a grown and happier me.

Everyone I've been close with, there isn't enough space in a short letter to address each and every one of you individually, otherwise that would make it a very, very long letter. But I do still keep you dear to me, and if you want, I would be more than happy to catch up or just talk for a minute anytime.

Sincerely,

Someone who still loves and appreciates you lots.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
