Dear _______,

I know it may be immature, but I hope one of two things happens in your future.

1. Someone inexplicably close to you makes a promise that you count on heavily and when it really comes to testing that promise, they just turn their back on it and the best explanation for why they no longer have to keep it is that 'they had no right to make that promise in the first place' or that 'they were too young to make a promise like that.' That way you can really know why what you did was wrong and hurtful and that the only real way to deal with a situation is to keep your promises as best as possible.

or

2. You simply realize that there was never any reason we couldn't have taken a little break from talking for us both to gather our thoughts and just continued to be friends that poured into each other in ways deeper than two people generally do. And I hope when you think about that you shed a tear for all the hell that put my heart through for no real founded reason.

I know the things I did as a result of all of that was my choice, but I have never been hurt like that without some sort of reconciliation, especially by anyone that I would have given anything in the whole world for. The things I did were a pathetic attempt to just get it all out of my head and it was reckless and lame. I'm past that.

I hope someday you come around and realize that if nothing else we could still be incredible friends who have an amazing time together and learn something new every time we talk. I hope you realize that that isn't something that you just have to throw out at some point. It can continue forever without becoming a more serious relationship and that's all I wanted.

I pray for you every day. I want nothing but the best for you.
And no matter how far you try to keep me from you, I will always love the hell out of you. You are my best friend and a nearly impossible act for anyone to ever follow.

-Michael
