dear joe,

you were a good guy, you were the perfect cardboard cutout of what a boyfriend should be. not for me. I need flaws because I’m far from perfect. I needed girl time, I needed space, I needed to not have to care for anyone but myself. I forced myself to stick with you for the normalcy, so it’d be easier for everyone around me. I’m not sorry I ended it and in no way do I regret it, I just wish we could be friends and I wish you would stop being so mean.

xoxo
