Dear *****,1
This is probably the fifth letter I have written you, all unsent/given because they are out of date by the time I go back to them. I want you to know that I love you. A lot. And that you break all my neat conclusions about males, which sucks because those conclusions kept me emotionally stable for several years. Within the past three weeks, I have gotten attached, detached, and now I am trying hard to stop myself from getting reattached. All for emotional preservation of course.2
Today you are heading home, and this weekend you will most likely remember how in love you are with her, run away from **** forever and get married and live happily ever after. Well, the first part is most likely true. The rest is just my fears. I didn't want to give into you last night for one reason only. And she is that reason. I don't want you to go back today and be like 'Oh shit why did I do that?' Honestly, I don't expect you to come back and want me around, but I hope you will still accept my friendship. Because, for some reason, I want to torture myself.3
Well, whatever. Have a safe trip home, and don't elope. (at least without telling me about it)4

okay, this is the exact letter that i wrote someone when i first said the L word on paper... i felt i had to explain that this is the real thing, complications included. I took out names and places for obvious reason (at least i hope it is obvious) sorry im entering in this contest for a third time, but its an awesome contest. Oh yeah, this is dated from the first weekend in october...
What did you think? Please comment!
