Hi *****, it took me so long to come to terms with my feelings for you, i pretended not to like you, your intelligence, smile, kindness, it was all too much for me. I didn't realize it but those precautions i took to ignore my feelings only made me fall for you harder. I tried so hard to hate you, but i couldn't. I can finally say that you were my first love, my first guy friend, and the first person to make me feel validated. Thank you for that, i hope you have a wonderful and successful life, you deserve it after how much time and effort you put into it. You'll always have a special place in my heart, and you have taught me a lot. I love you.
