Dear ——M

We were best friends once, not too long ago. But things have changed since then. You have changed, as have I—I've finally opened my eyes and now, I see you for who you are: a petty, vindictive, dismal girl who thrives on playing the victim, telling tall tales and most of all, putting others down.

I finally realized that when I am around you, I am a worse person because of it. Part of that is my fault; I shouldn't be so easily swayed, I should grow a spine, you say. I know, I know. In many ways, we've already said our goodbyes—silent, bitter little unspoken things that involve you and I side-stepping each other at every opportunity, stepping on each others toes for our own amusement. But here, I'm saying it now. Let's be done with each other, once and for all.
