This one is kind of intense, huh? I take it to mean an ex-lover, not former boss or room-mate. So, in order, I guess starting with the very first in my Freshman year of high school, who will be called number 1, and we will progress from there, here we go.
#1 I’m really glad I outgrew you quickly. Also glad we didn’t live up to your expectation and get married.
#2 Thank you for being so loyal, faithful, patient and for being such an honorable young man. I truly believe if life had gone differently the two of us may have stayed together forever. I still consider you to be a friend and I am grateful for the time we spent as a couple and the time since then as friends. Thanks for that time you said you were my “cousin” so you could take me home for Thanksgiving and I didn’t have to stay in the barracks.
#3 We had some fun. You were basically a best friend I hugged often and held hands with. You broke my heart which was horrible, but at least it ended quickly. It sucked to have your next girlfriend ask me for advice on how to make you less clingy. If I saw you walking down the street, I’d probably ask you if we could catch up over coffee.
#4 You are a horrible kisser.
#5 You could have ruined me completely if I’d let you. I’ve never been so scarred by another person. I wish I had done things differently after you. Why? Do you remember me? Do you remember me the way I remember you? Were you sorry? Did you care? Did you think of me? Why? I hated you. I hated me for caring about you. You changed my life.
The last time we were together changed my life. I was ruined and scarred. I was almost destroyed. I am who I am today because of what you did to me. That isn’t a way of saying thank you. If I could go back in time it would be different.
#6 Sorry. You were a rebound.
#7- My lucky number 7? I do.
