Letter to my Ex

Dear Ex,
            I really don’t know how your life is now. And to be honest, I kind of don’t care. Yes, I still have those little treasures and keepsakes of the memories that we shared, but they don’t really have any significance in my life. They just sit there in the corner, waiting to be loved. That probably won’t ever happen. No, you’re never getting your sweatshirt back. Yes, it’s sitting at the bottom of the pile. Don’t worry, it’s probably wrinkled.
            There’s really only one thing I have to say to you- “I don’t understand how we can be the way we were, then just shut it all off.” Yeah, I’d consider our breakup “sudden”. I mean, in a way I saw it coming; you had become distant, and the signs were there and all. But I didn’t think you were heartless enough to do it the way you did. When I was on Cloud 9, you just had to tear me off. I really tried not to think of you as an asshole, but that’s what you truly ended up as.
            I let you in because you truly cared about me. Honestly, you loved me more than I loved you. But your quirkiness and cute charm grew on me. Or else I never would have dated you in the first place. How did you go from caring about me more than I could have imagined, to breaking my heart in the worst way possible?
            No, I’m not mad at you because we broke up. I’m mad at you because you just had to do it then, didn’t you? I’m mad at you because you let people turn on me. I’m mad at you because you didn’t have an ounce of decency to look me in the eye and give me a real reason. I’m mad at you for ruining one of the best friendships I’ve ever had. But I get it, you’re a teenage guy. You’re dumb, and I’ll never forget that.
            I don’t regret dating you. I don’t regret having such a good friendship- well, while it lasted. Though you’ve put me through so much, you’ve reminded me to live without regrets. The happy times that we shared together outweigh the heartbreak and sadness that I went through. I’m just glad I never told you I loved you.

Asshole Drivers


Dear Assholes,
 
            If there’s multiple signs that say “right lane closed ahead”, “merge left”, or something of the like, why the hell would you keep driving in the right lane? Yes, I understand you’re a self-centered, conceited, jerk who just wants to get to your own destination as fast as possible. But let’s think this out; if you just ride the closed lane as long as possible then just cut in, you’re only slowing everyone down! On top of that, if you think you’re entitled to cut in at the last minute, think again. If you have your blinker on, I’ll probably let you in. If you are driving like a jerk, no way in hell am I letting you in. Sucks for you.
 
Sincerely,
The Nice Driver
