ugh, being appreciative.

Just stumbled across a cute-looking letter in my Drawer of Paper (in which all Revenue Canada Letters and Future Insurance Claims and Notable Correspondences are kept). I didn’t recognize the penmanship at first, but it quickly became apparent this was a letter sent from an ex way back in the day.

And you know what? This letter? It’s super nice! Actually, all my exes are super nice in a lot of ways. In fact, I’d go so far as to say all my exes are nicer than me. And probably more emotionally intelligent. (Well, some of them.) Not to go nuts about this, but I think I have super good and reliable taste in boys.

Now, I’m not the type of girl to be friends with her exes; not in a malicious way, just in a ~too many feelings~ and ~nervous about perception~ kind of way. I’m sure sometime it’ll happen just gravy, but for now, it’s over when it’s over.

Well, here’s a caveat: it’s over when it’s over except for the letters, which I still get to read and smile at.
