Dear S,

Have you ever picked out a book to read… and skipped to the last pages almost immediately to know how it ends so you know if it’s worth reading? This is kind of like that. This is the end. Because you and me have no beginning.

I like you. At least, I did like you. I never told you but you should have figured it out. You’re smart. Not as smart as me but smarter than you thought I ever gave you credit for.

This has been hard for me because I didn’t think that I could feel this way. I make it a point not to get involved in relationships because I’m afraid to become vulnerable. Hurt inevitably follows vulnerability. I would’ve made an exception for you, though. I think.

We were friends. I think we were better friends than you probably did. This is just another example of how our entire relationship has been tipping on a one-sided Libra scale. I liked being around you for two reasons: you could make me laugh and I liked who I was when I was with you. These are very rare things to find in someone, but I found them in you. You were special to me.

To you, I always felt like this girl that was always around. One of many girls that were always around the scene. We could get drunk and laugh about things that other people didn’t think were funny because our sense of humor was a mirror image.

Despite being a girl that was always around, I felt like one of the guys most of the time. I could hold my liquor, play video games, and quote classic 90s comedies. I don’t there were ever more than a couple of times when you acknowledged that I was, in fact, not a guy.

We never kissed. We’ve never done much of anything despite platonically sharing a bed a number of times. I felt like there were a couple of times where we could have ****ed. But we were drunk and I wasn’t sure if it would mean anything or not. I couldn’t bring myself to make a move, despite so desperately wanting that kind of intimacy and closeness with you. It would only make me crazy, continuing to wonder… am I special to you? Or am I still that girl that’s always around? That happened to be around now, when you’re drunk and wouldn’t mind getting laid?

I can’t wonder about these things anymore. It’s soulsucking and time consuming and quite honestly, it’s breaking my heart. I don’t want to be a secretly broken person over this anymore. So I’m breaking up with you.

It’s difficult to break up with someone you have never even dated. But it’s somehow necessary. We had a whirlwind romance, all inside of my head. I analyzed every word you ever said to me. I have pictures of us that you don’t remember taking. I relive sensory memories of every place you’ve ever touched me. And you’ve never known how much any of this has meant to me… and you never will.

I won’t be around anymore.
