My best friend,
I wish there was a way that I could help ease the pain of being apart from the one you feel so strongly for. I understand your situation--it hurts like hell. I couldn't help but cry tonight as you told me of how badly you longed to be in your sweet heart's arms but couldn't because she's all the way in Chi-town. I know this pain. I've lived it. That feeling of being so far and disconnected from the one you want. It hurts like hell. Just please, bear in mind that if the two of you want it badly enough, honestly and truly, you can make it work. Don't underestimate the power within you two. However, please be open to this advice, as well. I know its a hard pill to swallow, especially coming from me, the one who can't take her own good advice, but please try your best to understand that feelings can and will change, regardless of how we fight it. If the two of you are honest with one another, should another person come along, then it will make the transition that much smoother. However, you must understand this--its going to hurt like hell, regardless of how much you try your best to prepare for it. That stupid-ass feeling of fluffy "unrequited love" that we used to scoff about in our literature class actually hurts a lot more than the two of could have ever imagined. Especially if it seems that from one day to the next your loved-one had completely decided against you--yes, even after all you're been through. Yes, I know...its complete shit. But we can't control their free will, and as much as we'd like to force them to love us the way that we love them, its just not going to happen. I hope this lesson isn't a hard one. To be completely honest, I hope that everything works out just fine for the two of you and that neither of you ever have to experience the heart-break that seems so inevitable at this point. You'll be just fine. I'm here for you, just as you've always been here for me.
