dear person i like
I know we kinda talked about this already and actually there’s still a bit I need to say because I just want to make some points clearer and what not. Remind me to talk to you about them with you because I’m an old man and I might forget. Y’know, I’m really thankful we can talk openly about it. The last time I wrote this about you, I said that I’ve never communicated better with anyone else and I still stand by that statement.
The future is kind of unpredictable. Maybe you’ll end up with your current crush, maybe you’ll end up with someone else, maybe you’ll end up with me. The truth is we don’t know. Life is full of twists and turns, some of them favorable and some of them aren’t.
And should you fall for someone else, just know I won’t be hurt. I accepted this from the moment I finally surrendered to my feelings that this was a very real possibility. I’ve known from the beginning that this was all completely complicated. But if it happens, it won’t be the first time. I’ve experienced this before and I want you to know that I’ll be okay. Just go on and do your thing, find your happiness, go get what you desire. You work so hard, you really do deserve all the happiness in life. I guess my reaction would be like me as Knives Chau and you as Scott Pilgrim at the end of Scott Pilgrim vs the World. Except you’re not portrayed by an awkward Canadian, though I am cute and Chinese? Does that make sense? I just want you to be happy.
Don’t worry about me. Honest. I’ll be okay. All I ask of you is one simple favor: please stay in my life. You’re such a good friend to me. You listen, we laugh, we joke. We have our similarities and our differences, and exploring them has been a real blast. Regardless of how I feel about you, though, I know I am first and foremost your friend and I am working hard to be the best damn friend for you I can be. I’ll be there for you.
I’m excited to see you soon. I hope we get to go on adventures, and I’m happy to share my cooking with you, and jesus we really need you to see Star Wars! And it will be a grand time with you. Whether it’s five minutes or two weeks, I’m just happy to spend any time I can with you because you are my favorite.
I guess whatever happens, happens. I just want you to know that you have a friend for life. Thanks for filling my heart with happiness.
I’ll talk to you soon.
Cheers,Matt
