dear [name],

congratulations on your new relationship! it makes me so happy to see you happy. you deserve to have that, more than anybody else i know. i hope your relationship is healthy and loving, and lasts a long, long time.

it's funny, to think about how things are so different now then they were in the beginning. when we first met, i thought we were soulmates. i was head over heels in love with you. nothing could shake me from that love, even the knowledge that you liked yoongi better. i don't know what my younger self would do if he heard about you and yoongi now. the poor guy, he'd be a mess. probably jealous, and angry, and resentful, and sad.

although it was disappointing (and very embarrassing) to have you reject me back then, it's the best thing that ever happened to me. if i hadn't told you my feelings and had you turn me down, i would still be that miserable guy. i wouldn't be able to be here, with you, experiencing life and everything that comes with it. but now i'm able to still have you in my life, and get to see you at your happiest, and that is the best thing i could ever ask for.

of course i still love you more than anyone, that hasn't changed. i love you like youth loves inexperience, like crime loves punishment, like lyrics love melody. that's something you will never have to question or give a second thought to. i love you more than i can put into words, just not as a girlfriend. and you don't love me like a boyfriend, like you do yoongi. that's how it's supposed to be, and how it will always be. just good, pure, platonic love.

all my love,

hoseok
