My Take: All Those Poor Boy Twins & Best Friends I Mistreated Throughout My Life
I feel like it'd be a little repetitive if I wrote about Kurt every time one of these kind of challenge days came up, so I wanted to talk about a crush I'd had in my frivolous youth. I thought about my first crush, in preschool; which was actually kindof two, since they were twins, John and David. And then I realized I must have a thing for twins/best-friends-who-might-as-well-be-twins, because I thought of more than one other sets that I have had crushes on throughout the years. Yes, in each case I liked both of them, ok? I am a creepy love loser. And I know that twins are different people, it just happened. A lot. So here's to you, boys.
Dear You Guys,
I am so sorry. I'm a loser. Thanks to each of you for still being my friend, even though I was being player-ish. Like I said, I have grown up to realize I was a frivolous girl. One who wasn't grateful enough for what she already had and couldn't make up her mind. One who put her own wants above anyone else's.
Some of you I believe I seriously hurt, some of you we only ever had fun, and some of you taught me who I was. (Yes, there's a lot of someones of you, ok? I know.) Thank you for being some of the greatest friends I have ever had. I think in some ways I was envious of that connection you had with your brother; I wanted a bond like that with somebody. I was just seeking it in each of the wrong (creepy) places.
Again, I am sorry, but secretly, I am pleased I ever knew each of you. That's the selfish streak still in me that shone the brightest when I liked you and your brother. Don't worry, I have myself under better control now. Thanks for helping me realize that lack of self-control, even if it took me a multitude of years to pick up on it.
Most Sincerely,
Hilary
