Dear Ex-Husband, I never felt what letting go was like until I felt you and me both went our separate ways.

Dear Former Friend, I’m still thinking, and let’s face it, laughing, about the “scathing tell off“ you felt compelled to post the other day.

Dear Ex Best Friend, I think about you a lot. We haven’t spoken in 3 to 4 years now and that still bothers me. I met you in the US and ever since then we were like Cheech and Chong lol.

My Dear Ex-Boyfriend Who Showed Me Love, My dear. I don’t know how you feel. But was this all just a game? A bet between you and your friends? Was I really yours?
