To the friend that I basically cut out of my life: I'm sorry. I'm sorry that life happened and that it took us in different directions. I'm sorry that I didn't keep up with you better. I'm sorry that I made it seem like I was choosing others over you. Believe me, I didn't mean for it to come off that way and I didn't mean to let this happen. I'm sorry that I'm taking 15 credit hours in school and hardly have time for the few people I do talk to. I'm sorry that I haven't made an effort to make you one of them in a long time.
I'm sorry that life got so hectic that it made me resort to this. Writing an article online as an apology because I feel so bad that I don't know how I could ever say all of this to your face, or even in a text message directly to you. I feel bad that I haven't talked to you in forever because we used to be so very close. We were best friends and we always thought it was going to be us against the world. I don't want to lose you and I am prepared to fight for your friendship if I have to. I'm hoping it's not too late.
We thought we could do anything. High school was such a hectic mess for us and I don't know how we pulled through all that mess but we did. I don't know what I would do if I lost you over a mess like this. I know it's mostly my mess and that's why I'm working to fix it but you've gotta meet me halfway.. or at least I hope you will. I hope like hell that it's not so bad that it can't be fixed.
From me, your friend, hopefully forever and always.
