Dear Best Friend,

We have been friends for years, but it's not the time that has brought us so close but the memories, the laughs, the rants and times we questioned our decision-making skills. It feels as if we've been friends for so long I have trouble remembering which of us is the bad influence. We've had our ups, our downs, and our plateaus in our friendship, but no matter what, we know that we'll be there for one another.

All of our jokes that only we would understand and our crazy and weird but similar sense of humor have brought many smiles to my face through the years, thank you for that. You have been my biggest supporter, my family, my rock in so many circumstances. When I thought I was alone, you were there. When my heart was broken, it was you who stayed by my side helping me pick up the pieces. You loved me when I forgot to love myself and even more so when I didn't think I deserved to be loved. You'll never understand how important you are to me nor will I fully understand it myself.

I promise you that for all the time you've spent listening to me complain, listening to me rant, listening to my sorrows, telling me that "it'll all be all right," I will do the same for you. You don't sugar coat anything and a best friend shouldn't have to. You are closer than a friend, you are a sister. You are my family and will always be considered as such.

When you fall, I will laugh; I mean I will help you up. When you're hurting, I will ask whose ass I need to kick. When you sing along with the radio, I will look at you like you're crazy before singing along with you like an idiot. And I will always cherish every moment we spend laughing at absolutely nothing.

Love always,

Me
