Yes, I Have An Ex Best Friend, And No I Don't Thank Her For The 'Good Times'

We used to be so close. We used to stay the night at each others house. We used to do each others hair and make up. We used to go out and do things together. I remember when we first met at school- I was a new student. I didn't know anyone. We starting talking and getting to know each other. We got super close. Our families treated the other as their own. We were inseparable. There were times where we would fight but that didn't change the fact that we were best friends. We practically lived together.

You started to treat me like I was more of a option. You pushed me away. You became really selfish. There were times when I needed you more than ever but you wouldn't answer my calls or text. There were times that I would be worried about you and you wouldn't respond. Sometimes I would feel as if you were even really my "best friend". I was always there when you needed a shoulder to cry on. I was always there when things weren't right. I always put you before I put myself. Best friends are supposed to be supportive but you weren't.

I got pregnant and had a baby, but you weren't around for me to tell. You were the second person, next to your father, that I was gonna tell. The day of my baby shower, you made all excuses. The day I had her, you didn't even bother to see if she was healthy and happy. I got into a school and wanted to tell you. But when you got into a school, I was so excited for you. Things were always about you. If things didn't go your way, then it would be hell. I have yet to realize why you were such a so-called "good friend".

I don't thank you for any of the good times because you showed me your true colors. But I do want to thank you for showing me how much I needed to move on from a friend like you. Now, that we aren't friends my life has been so much happier and clearer. I now have more time to spend with my family and the friends who never turned their back. I have found peace without you in my life. I unfriended you from everything because it is no longer about you, it is now about me! I am happy with where my life is today- without you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
