Day 21 — Someone you judged by their first impression

Dear ******,

You were one of my friends closest friends.

I couldn’t see why though. You seemed really rude, really boxed in, you always seemed to have problems, you were suicidal and cut, you always seemed to block people out, your about me… I tend to avoid those sort of people. I didn’t see what my friend saw in you. I didn’t want to associate myself with someone like you.

You were the one my friend turned to in times of need. My friend would cry for you when something happened.

I don’t remember the first time I spoke to you. But I remember, you were one of the nicest people I know. I spoke to you for ages and you told me that I’d made you smile, which you rarely did. I felt amazing.

I have nothing against suicidal people. I mean, I pray to God that nothing happens to you, but those sorts of people tend to have a lot of problems.

The judgement I made about you was completely wrong. You are one of my closest friends now and you’re the one that I know is actually listening when I need someone to talk to.

Thank you for being here for me and for being one of my closest friends.

Trust me, I feel bad judging you that way when I first knew about you, but that’s how you came across.

Stay strong. I love you.

Lots of love Becky xx
