Dear Secret Crush,
Thank You.
Depression affects most (if not all) people. And that's where I had just come from. Suffice to say that I was at my lowest low, and for some reason, I looked up one day and you were there. The only thing I can describe it as waking up, slowly, out of a terrible nightmare and into the glorious daylight.
It has been said, "Life is like an hourglass. Eventually, everything hits the bottom, and there is nothing you can do but wait until someone comes along and turns it around." And that's EXACTLY how it turned out.
You have turned my life from this ugly, dark blob of stress into this refreshing, sweet sigh of relief. I'm alive, I'm happy, and I'm free!
No, this....'relationship' (I hate to call it that because we barely know each other) may not go anywhere, but you have changed my perspective on the world. I am renowned in my neighborhood for being 'the boy hater'. I don't necessarily hate boys, I just don't like them. I was not boy crazy like all my girlfriends were in high school, and even threatened to punch a friend because she wouldn't stop talking about boys (we were at girl's camp, and it must've been late because I don't remember saying that).
You've changed me. This new...'soft' side has come out (barely, but it is), and I will just have to learn to like boys-college boys are much more mature, right?
So again, thank you.
Sincerely,
Cassie
PS-This does not mean I DON'T have a crush on you-I still do :)
