529191Me. An Open Letter To My Ex - By Me
I’ve replaced you with me.
Me is now my best friend and the person who I’m going to spend the rest of my life with.
Me will always be there when I need her.
Me listens to me when I’m upset, and comes up with ways to cheer me up, rather than just complaining that I’m upset.
Me is also there for me when I’m happy, because she’s there for the bad times that means she gets to experience the good times with me too. Like when I graduate, when we move to America together or even just sitting on the beach watching the sun set.
Me likes all the same things as me too!
Me is as happy playing Minecraft or the Sims as she is playing GTA V or Arma.
Me will never criticise my strategy in Civ 5 because she doesn’t care about how much science I’m generating.
Me will always go planespotting with me whenever and wherever I want, and I know that she will be equally as excited as I am.
Me loves dancing, we go together every week now.
Me also loves swimming, and there’s nothing I would rather do on a Friday afternoon than hang out in the pool with her.
Me loves going roadtripping/railtripping to different places with me, and she will never have a go at me for wanting to go to Paris, because she knows that the reason I want her there is because there’s no one who I would rather go exploring with.
Me will go anywhere with me, because she knows that I would go anywhere with her too.
Me will also never try and abandon me in the middle of London, in a city I don’t know, because I didn’t say what she wanted to hear.
Me will never criticise me on the little things around my house, like the way that I tidy up, or that my television doesn’t have separate speakers.
Me will always want to watch what I want to watch. She won’t make me watch X Files when she knows that I’ll be scared when I go home. She doesn’t make me watch Archer when I’ve said a hundred times that it’s not funny and I don’t like it.
Me will always understand the Spongebob or Hannah Montana or Flash movie references that I make, and won’t write it off as childish.
Me will never use me for lifts or take advantage of me, promise to go halfers on petrol money, and then I never see any of it.
Me will never have a go at me for being depressed, and will never hold my actions when I was severely depressed against me.
Me will never push me to do things when I’m suffering from depression and exhaustion from being pushed too hard.
Me isn’t trying to make herself feel better by putting everyone down, from Maff about his new coat, to her parents about their technological competence, to Ben about his dating strategy or choice of clothing, to the knowledge of the guy from QinetiQ who was giving and RAeS talk about the Brimstone missile, to “you’re the stupidest person I know, and I know Beans”.
Me will never lie to me about wanting to be with me, lie about choosing me over her, lie to her about what’s happening with me, and then cheat on both of us.
Me is my best friend because she’s a friend to me, not just me being a friend to her.
Most of all, me will never, ever hurt me like you did.
