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

[Owl City.]

Dear _____,

Congrats, you got a new boyfriend. I understand you want to spend time with him but you always seem to pick him over your friends :/ On top of that, you never tell me anything. I first found out you were dating him because I saw you guys hugging and hanging out a lot. I don't get it.


Dear _______,

Please stop getting mad at me over every little thing. Sometimes you start freaking out and I won't even know what I did wrong. And you refuse to tell me. Also, sometimes you can be a little too honest and make me feel like a terrible person. :/ Just..I don't know. Try to be nicer to me I guess? Another thing that bothers me is that you and the person mentioned in the first letter are always gossiping. Can't you have an actual conversation for once? Not only that, but you don't even include me in any of these conversations. I mean, yeah, I really don't care about what you're talking about most of the time, but it's still nice to be included. I tend to feel really left out a lot of the time.

dear boy,

i like you. i don't know why and i don't know how, but i do. if you could stop flirting with that bleach blonde chick that i don't particularly like and making me jealous, that would be great. i fall for you more nd more each day, so please be careful with what you do. i don't want to break this soon.

love,
a girl who's fallen for you

dear black creatures;
please stop swarming around me like vultures. it's always the circles and the following.. always the words you whisper in my ear and the anxiety you enforce upon me. you follow me around constantly and i hate it. stop telling me to grab a gun or tie a rope for myself. please stop following me.
love, your jester of sorts
--------
dear parents;
please take me to therapy. i need it badly. my whole world is crumbling and i feel like i have no way out. please... i may even need a counselor but i don't want one who judges me and calls me stupid for my choices. please. please. please.
love your broken daughter who nearly made a temporary decision today.

Kindle baby,

Can you please just charge normally?
Or... if that's too much to ask... at least never stop being able to charge.
Please? Please, buddy?

Cin,

Seriously, that pun was bad and you should feel bad.

Dear Mr. Pitts,
Man. Even Mr. Deodorant isn't strong enough to stand up against you. And then it feels like I'm being stalked by a really smelly person. So... please, give into Mr. Deodorant. *sigh* This is getting me nowhere.


Dear Fingers,
Wow. I haven't really looked at you before. I like you. You ten are very feminine.

Dear Toes,
... not as much as the fingers...

dear people of the internet,

i'm not speaking to any particular person, before i begin this letter. if you read this and happen to be this kind of person, i'm sorry if i offend you, but seriously.
i'm so tired of looking on here, twitter, instagram, quotev, etc. etc. etc. , and finding all these people that seem like they purely want attention.
the other day, on instagram, i saw a girl who posted a picture of her cutting herself and the caption was 'if this picture gets 100,000 likes, i won't kill myself tonight"
really? just, really? shut up. if you really were suicidal, you wouldn't post something like that.
also, i'm tired of seeing people's bios on here, twitter, & instagram like 'i'm suicidally depressed, i cut, and nobody cares about me. i'm better off dead'.
would you please stop? if you feel so vulnerable and miserable, there's help, if you need it.
it's one thing if people write letters about personal feelings on here, or just need to rant. but to exploit your problems all over a social media profile is where a problem interferes.
cutting, suicide, eating disorders, and anxiety are so common in naive teenagers these days, it's becoming a trend, almost. yes. i said it. it's sad. you don't have to do all of those things to yourself to get attention. and if you really do have those problems, like i said, you can always get help.
there's even such thing as free help online.
i've done it. trust me. it works.
if you really feel 'suicidal', don't exploit it on the internet. call the suicide hotline and get real help.
most people don't even have bad lives that do this, too. i'm not typically one to be a judgmental person, but really.
and for those that are all on instagram/twitter/facebook/etc that are like, "i want to cut, but my mom threw my blades away. no one cares about me."
obviously, if a gaurdian has thrown your blades away, they care. you're just being naive. i know that everyone handles their own pain differently, but self-harm is not the right answer, especially wghen you exploit it onto the internet for everyone to see. if you're truly miserable and truly want to be happy, do something about it. get out of the house for once. join a club, write a book, dance your heart out, do something positive! the more negative energy you execute from your life, the more room you have for positivity.
putting things in your bios or whole accounts about how depressed/anorexic/suicidal/anxious you are won't help. it only creates more negativity.
so, please, if you are someone that does this, please here me out.
we all have ways of coping with our feelings. i just don't think putting them out there for everyone to see is the right thing to do.

sincerely,
blah

I agree with this completely. The more you believe and concentrate on something, whether or not it is a good thing for your life, you begin to dwell solely on that. Some people believe this as their identity. And you know what? Everybody goes through life with ups and downs. Just because one day you're not happy doesn't mean you have depression. I am not disrespecting victims of depression or suicide, or the alike. I'm simply saying that if you lived a completely happy life, you'd never know true happiness. This is what life is all about -- knowing the happy moments and the bad moments, and just going through those waves with confidence that it will eventually get better.

And just because you might "have" depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. it doesn't mean that the depression or suicidal thoughts are you. People need love and emotion in their lives. In fact, if you are currently going through something right now and want to talk -- even if you might feel that it's embarrassing or you completely dismiss this -- send me a PM. Talk to others about it. Because what good does it do keeping it inside? It makes you feel worse, because nobody can really understand what you are going through. But I'm sure others have gone through similar situations and through relating that, others can understand.

I hope this helps. <3

Dear headache: just go away, okay?

E+S,
You auditioned today! You two are doing my choreography so much justice, I just hope my choreography does you justice... It wasn't your best run through of the piece, but neither Mr. C and Ms. B said anything negative which was good, C- he has never complimented my work, so nothing new there, and B encouraged me to finish teaching you all three min, so that's a good sign. I over all hope that you two like this piece, it was literally made for you. I'm so scared that it won't turn out good, that it'll be boring or not engaging for the audience, but we'll just have to go with it for now and hope that everything goes as planed.
Happy one-year anniversary you two! :)

J,
I can never figure out what you're thinking. Why can't I read you??????

INK.

dear star,
yeah no. stop telling me you love me when I know you don't. sure, I left for a few months but then you had to go behind my back. I've given you many chances; why don't I just give up? I can't believe I still love you.
love your girlfriend,
eliza
dear friends,
