A Letter

No pictures today because I don't think they are needed.  My DD (debbie downer) has really gone too far.  After Saturday night's bit of stalking I got a text today saying "Seriously, what the hell?"  I also checked her FB page and found that she had posted on Sunday evening how hurt she was that a friend cut her out of their life with out any explanation.  DD has some big time issues if she can't figure this out.  It's been bothering me all day since she sent the text because I don't think it's necessary, then again maybe I'm being the mean girl.  I know that's how she's portraying me.  So here's the letter I will never send.

DD,

I'm write this to you as you feel you deserve an explanation as to why I've chosen to terminate our friendship.  I want you to think back for a couple years and see where maybe things have gone wrong.  Also evaluate the role I'm currently playing in your life and you in mine.  I'm going to highlight a few things for you.

2009 - road trip to Nashville, you still owe me money, approx $250 for gas
2009 - your birthday and the tickets to the 2nd Dierks show that I couldn't attend, you nor your friend ever paid me $150
2009 - 3 separate road trips over the summer and your birthday, not including Nashville, to see concerts.  You were obsessed with the bands and ignored me.  I enjoyed the shows, but not the stalking that you deemed necessary.
2010 - the last time I recall us being together.  I drove 70 miles each way to see you.  As dinner was ending you look like I had slapped you when I asked the waitress for separate checks.  I had planned on asking you to go to the movies that evening, but once I knew you were expecting me to pay, it was the final straw.
2010-12 constant bitching about being broke and single.  I offer advice and solutions, you do nothing.  I stop taking your phone calls and now your texts.  Why would I continue communicating with someone who does the complete opposite of what I've said.  It's like banging my head on the wall expecting it not to hurt.  It just doesn't work that way.

Currently, the way I see it, the only things we have in common is white, overweight 35 yr olds females who live in WI.  You have no idea what's happening in my life and yours, well according to the texts, is still obsessed with country music singers and 2 very bad recent boyfriends.  Based on posts on your FB page you have also become very religious, hoping to find some path through Jesus.  You know that is not my personal choice and I do not enjoy you cramming it down my throat.  Your beliefs do not make you better than me.

At this time in my life I do not consider us friends.  We are barely even acquaintances.  I do not want to try and rekindle what we had.  We are not the same people who met 10 yrs ago at work over the cube wall.  Every time I came home from seeing you I was a little bit more poor and a lot bit sad.  I have moved on, and I would suggest you do the same.  I wish you nothing but happiness and hope you can find a path to lead you to it.  I know I have found mine and am enjoying the view as I go.

Sincerely,

L
