I never realized how much I cared about you until just recently. Idk why I’ve been so nostalgic lately lol. But anyway, even though we live hundreds of miles away from each other now, you’re still so important in my life. These past months have shown me that it doesn’t matter how long you’ve known each other or how far apart you are when it comes to true friendship. I’m glad we can still talk about (mostly) inappropriate stuff with each other and we can still text each other out of the blue without getting all weird. You’re one of the few friends who I truly believe has my best interest in my mind. We like have this awesome connection. You like get me. We’re soulmates. Lolol no homo. But actually, I’m so glad we can confide in each other and I can call you one of my bestest friends. Also, it’s crazy and surprising how alike we actually are. You’re like a prettier, more talented version of me lol.
You probably don’t know how much I care about you. I want you to know how valuable you are. Like my heart hurts thinking about how much you’re hurting because you’re such an awesome person. I wish you could see that.Â
Those times when I wish more people were like me.Â
I used to think that the best way not to get hurt was to just act like idgaf. To not be vulnerable. To not be the one to care more. But in the end I just took the people I love for granted, and I got hurt anyway. I still have that tendency sometimes, and I get so frustrated at myself whenever I slip up. But I’m trying my best not to be that way anymore. I think the strongest people know their weaknesses, accept them, and aren’t afraid to show them. They love relentlessly, while still knowing the price it might pay because they know they will end up a better person no matter what happens. They also know that you can’t make and maintain authentic interpersonal connections without being vulnerable.Â
