An Open Letter To The Boy Who Has My Friend’s Heart

Congratulations, you earned the chance of being with one of my favorite humans in the whole world. You get to experience someone who has one of the most purest, genuine hearts that you will come across. You get to see the world from her eye’s and how lucky are you? Yes, she’s insanely beautiful and yes she will have other admirer’s. Whether that be from the past or the future… don’t you dare scold her for that. Instead, feel on top of the world that you were chosen to be with something that is wanted. Do you blame the want from others on something that money can’t buy?

Her and I chose each other to be in each other’s lives, we chose to see each other’s vulnerable ugly selves, we chose to go through life’s changes and grow with each other, we chose to love each other even when we disagreed with each other, we chose to make each other a priority in our lives, we chose each other to love every part of ourselves, we chose each other to learn from one other. Now that she found you, she chose you to go through those same things. As her friend, promise me that you’ll do whatever it takes to make these same choices.

I miss her. I miss our late night conversations that are limited now. I miss our drunken times where we still laugh about all of the silly things we got ourselves into. I miss us talking about our futures, where forever was the time limit we had on the memories we would make. None of those things are extinct but they are different. That doesn’t mean that I hold any hatred towards you, the exact opposite actually. I trust her to have chosen someone she is proud to have. She wouldn’t introduce her family and friends if you weren’t worth it to her. I’m rooting for you, I’m on your team man. That is until you give me a reason to not want to be on your team. Mistakes happen, but don’t allow yourself to turn those mistakes into habits.

I’ve seen her when she’s laughing uncontrollably. I’ve seen her when her tears can’t be stopped. I’ve seen her when she aced that test. I’ve seen her when she’s failed. I’ve seen her so heartbroken that she says she’ll never open up her heart again. I remember the initial mention of your name, that I have to meet you. I’ve seen her eyes light up when you send her a text. I’ve seen her talk about her dreams, push her to follow through with those.

I’m not going anywhere, but now she has you to be that person for her when I can’t. Remind her that she looks good in Red and her favorite childhood stuffed animal. Remember how she likes her coffee. When she’s on her period heat a rice bag in the microwave and get her favorite candy bar. Play a song for her that reminds you of her, she will cherish that song until the day that she dies. Never let her feel like she can’t be herself.

I love her with my whole heart. I wouldn’t be writing this for you if I didn’t think the world of her, this is my gift to you. This is me telling you in the most subtle way not to hurt her heart or I’ll kick you where the sun don’t shine ;)

I may not see her as much as I want, it may have been hours, days, months or even sadly a year that I’ve last seen her. But those memories and love I have for her will never go away. She has made an imprint on my heart, and I can say with full confidence that she will change your life. She’s changed mine for the better.

She found someone that makes her smile more every day and makes her feel safe. That is the all that I want for her. To find someone that makes her feel so lucky, but we both know that you’re the lucky one pal. She deserves to feel loved every day. I smile and quite frankly I cried today when I think about my friends finding someone she is so sure about that she wants me to be aware on how happy she is. My heart is smiling <3

Explore the world with her. The world deserves to know her.

Don’t let me down

With love,

Megs
