Write a Letter You Cannot Send (Read the Rules!)

[Marley.&.Me]

I wish I had the guts to tell you how i truly feel about you deep down
but I’m afraid, I know you’d never hurt me intentionally..
My current relationship is a wreck, a mess at best.
I can’t bring myself to admit I deserve better.
You say I’m “friend zoning” you... when in reality I’m not...
I don’t cheat and I’m not gonna screw up even though the girl I’m with just did yesterday morning...

I can’t bring myself to believe she did it even though I know she did...

I wish I could bring myself around, better myself and tell you how i truly feel.

I really like you, M. But if i told you, i’m afraid i’d be some joke....

i hope one day you either come across this, and read it… or i have enough courage to tell you...

Dear, ____.

Whoever knew that it'd ever turn out this way..
I tried so hard to be enough for you, I tried so
hard... But nothing was good enough, You deserve
happiness and I'm sorry for everything... I wish
I could tell you this but I promised I wouldn't
message you again. Thank you for everything..
thank you for making me happy, thank you for
putting up with me for how long you did...

I love you and I always will, I'm sorry I hurt you
I'm sorry I could never be a good person I'm sorry
that I screwed this up for us... There's so many
things wrong with me I wish I could fix.. but it's
too late and I can't do anything to make up for it.
everything is just so lonely without you though,
I'll never find anyone like you.. I don't want anyone
else but you, I wish I could've been better and made
you want to stay..

I wish I kept to my word and did all the things I said,
you were the only person whoever genuinely cared
for me... and now you're gone.. I just feel nothing but
emptiness and sadness.

I want you back.. I want to be better... please..
I'm just sorry... I'm so sorry... it hurts so much...

Dear mom...

Are you happy??
You've stressed me out so much about this trip that im actually having a hard time eating. My deppression has taken over...

I tried working with you. I found a flight that i was considering paying part of. But you'd rather conplain saying you dont want to drive at 1 in the morning.
Well how's that fair to me?? Your flight you found had me driving at 3 in the morning.....

You know what...just dont talk to me about the trip. Im not coming to visit. I really dont care if i miss my sister's baby shower. Honestly i really want no part of her newborn.
They're gross and loud and wrinkly.

She hasn't changed at all. And that baby will grow up worser than the last one. You'll end up raising it and im not going to be there this time.

Her first brat you raised took everything from me. I never got to have a life for 9 years. I never got to go out with friends or go to concerts or parties. No i had to stay home and babysit a disrespectful turd who never listened...
Dont get me wrong. I love that kid. I'll protect her with my life if i have to. She's more my kid than anyone else. But there's no discipline. She doesn't know when enough is enough...

My sister treated me like garbage. Her personal slave. In a way you did too.
You're house has turned into a trash pit since i left. I was the only who cleaned, only one who cooked, really i was the only adult there.

Well now im free. Im free to make my own decisions. You may not like it and now you can't get your way... But I chose Those specific flight dates to go by for a reason and im sticking to them.

But i want you to know that i still love you. Although we're fighting and not talking for a little bit, i still love you. I dont mean to hurt you and i know you dont mean to hurt me...

But you MUST do your research and have the money ready before proposing a trip to me.
I tell you over and over...
Do you just like drama??
I left for many reasons. Drama is one of them. Im not having it. It spikes up my anxiety and depression. You know that. Do you just not care?!

Elskan mín,

So you'll be moving in a few months, possibly to another country.

I'm crying over it, a lot. But I won't let you hear that when we talk, because I can tell how terrified you are about the whole thing. I need to be the optimist in this situation. I know you need an optimist right now.

It's killing me that I can't ask you to marry me yet. I know that's what you want most in the world right now, and the last think I want to keep telling you is 'not yet,' but it looks like I'll have to for now.

Just know, elskan, that as soon as I can make it so, we will be married, and never have to worry about being separated again. And we can have children, and horses, and grow old, just as we dream.

Be strong. You are one of the bravest people I know.

If it turns out you need to go far, then we'll find each other again, just like we did the first time.

I will promise you again what I've promised countless times: I will always come back to you.

dear mom,
i am so sorry that you have to go through this mess. i am dead worried
about ya and i always have those restless nights, just thinking about you.
i don't want you to suffer no longer, and i just want you to go back to
normal! i know that you tell me that 'it's fine' and 'it's going to be okay'
but, there's so much for me to worry about. even though i give you
so much support and do what i can to make you happy, especially as
your child, you sometimes stress me out because i feel like you won't
get better! i always have you in my mind.. and i wish that i could
just kill that stupid pain that you have after you had your accident!
please, promise me that everything will be fine.. i don't wanna
see you like this. i keep on crying because of you. i want to
make you happy, but i don't know how to do that. i know that
i make you happy in some ways but, i wanna do it differently. i
want you to forget all of those problems that you have! i don't
want you to go through surgery.. i don't want things to get
worse for you! i don't know how to cope with this mess,
i just want all of this mess to be over and we'll be a happy
family together where you don't have any more chronic
pain..

Dear.
I wish it were that easy to be able to open up to someone and say that I need help, that I want to be able to feel something again. But I can't it's been embed into my mind time and time again, from so many thing making it to were I dont trust people.
So I'm sorry I hope one day I'll actually be able to talk to someone like you want, but I'm sorry to say that won't be any time soon

[whitney!]

dear rper,

okay so ya know

i sent a message reserving a spot before you even opened the reservations and you told me they weren't open

so when they opened, i asked again and you wanted to see my coding and a writing example

that was fine

so when i sent it, i realized you gave my spot away

tO SOMEONE WHO'S CODING IS COMPLETELY THE SAME IN EVERY ROLEPLAY

C'MON MAN

anyways

that hurt my feelings but honestly it's whatever

you do you

sincerely, you suck

[AccidentsHappen]

Dear M,
I wish I could be completely honest with you, but I am more afraid of breaking your heart even worse then I am concerned about my conscience.
You are a sweet, wonderful guy, and I love you from the bottom of my heart, but as a friend, which is not how you love me. I was a fool to allow my infatuation get in the way of a good friendship, and I was even more of a fool to agree to be yours, even for the seemingly short while that we were together.
I know you don't understand, but it's better that way. It breaks my heart to break your heart, but not for the reason that it should.
You changed, you know. Before we were together you were so charming, and happy all the time. I can't stand seeing these alternatingly smart (ahem)alec, cocky, and depressed sides of you.
I also suppose that I din't realize how much the mental age gap was. I feel like I'm speaking to a hormonal toddler at times.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm happier WITHOUT you, and it's not fair to either of us to stay together and pretend everything is ok when it's not. I'm sorry. Maybe someday I'll be brave enough to tell you all of this. Maybe even face to face.

Apologetically, L.

dear k,

ilysm but you don’t notice me

dear c,

you’re such a great friend <3

dear p,

rude much? saying I don’t deserve stuff then you ask me to help you?

[kunikida]

Dear D,

We've been together for so long, 2 years next month. But I'm afraid I'm not sure how much longer I can handle this.
You've changed. The time we spent apart over the last couple of months has really gotten to me. Now you go and beg me for a date (finally) and when I say yes, you spend the entire day talking about another girl and all the partying you've been doing. I cannot deal with that.
If you want to go to parties and be irresponsible, do so. I don't care anymore. You're your own person, it's not like I'm going to stop you from doing that, can you please stop boasting about it to me. I do not view it as 'cool', I miss the way you used to be. I miss the person I fell in love with. But now you've gone all rebellious and it feels like you think you're too good to be around me.

I find myself wishing you would dump me, because I absolutely cannot make any executive decision. Especially after so long.
I also cannot handle being on my own. I don't want to leave you and then find myself regretting it because nobody else wants me.

Please stop talking to me about drinking and this other girl and how great you guys get along and blah de blah. If you want our relationship to start functioning normally again you have to work for it. I'm tired of being the only one putting in effort. Treat me properly, for god's sake.

Distastefully, E.
