Bloody hell, this is a doosey. I have drunkenly sent this off to a friend/unrequited love, lets hear what you guys think.
Well... I have to predicate this with the fact that I'm drinking. Sometimes drinking is the only way I ever express myself. I can't really explain why I am the way I am, except possibly point you toward wrongplanet.net which is a support site for people like me. I can't always explain my feelings, or show them at all. I'm bad at eye-contact, and I am unbelievably shy at times. I guess that's why I have to explain myself this way. I've been nothing but aloof and distant since the day we met, and for that I'm sincerely sorry. There's no way to soften what I'm about to say, and a softened version wouldn't really have the same truth. I have been crazy about you since the day we met. You are the most beautiful, talented, amazing person I've ever met, and that has ALWAYS terrified me. I knew every time I saw you, I'd be too scared to ever tell you how I felt, and I'd cry myself to sleep once more. How do you go to dinner with someone you love, knowing they'll never know. How do you work with them on a music project knowing that you want to tell them, and that's all you can think of. How can you face someone, after they've seen you as a friend, when you've always wanted to be more. I got horribly jealous of the guy your were talking to that night at the Martini Ranch, and that's when I knew that I couldn't be the friend you deserve. I don't want to be that sad, depressing friend you only can stand once in a while. I knew that moment I'd become that person if I continued the way things were going. So I stopped. I stopped responding to your texts, I avoided seeing you at all costs. In fact, I stopped being a friend at all. I knew what I was doing, but unfortunately it was my only option. I won't be able to make it out to see you tomorrow night, and I've been such a worthless friend that I don't even know where you're going from this "going away party." I hate to tell you all this now, but I felt you needed to know why I've been such an incomprehensible ass. In final I would like to tell you one thing, I love you.
