My dear friend,

If you're going through something pretty tough right now, I’m sorry.

I’m sorry that all I can think to say is that I’m sorry. I’m not the best with my words when it’s something I’ve never experienced before. I’ll be trying to give you all the advice and comforting words I can, but I have to admit, I don’t know if they’ll do you any good.

But. Yes, there’s a big "but" here. I love you. Even if we only met a few weeks ago: I. Love. You.

This love means I will always be here for you. No matter if I can articulate what I want to say, or if my words don’t help at all. I will always be there, all you have to do is text me, call me, email me, even send me a snail mail letter. No matter how you contact me, I will be there. Even if I have to drive three hours in the middle of the night to you, I will be there if you need me.

I will be there with open arms to hug you, a shoulder to cry on, funny Tumblr posts to laugh at, whatever I can do to make you feel better, even if it’s only bombarding you with pictures of corgis via text.

So remember that I love you. And even if I don’t know what to say right now, I’ll do my best to cheer you up.

If you're the friend that I just don't know how to start a conversation with after we've let our friendship lie low for a while, I'm sorry for that too.

I still love you, I promise. I'm just not good at this whole starting conversations out of nowhere thing, as you probably know. So once I get up my courage to say hi and ask how you are, I hope you respond quickly, and help me get the conversation going.

Thanks for not giving up on me.

Much love,
