DAY 13: SOMEONE YOU WISH COULD FORGIVE YOU

Whew. This one's a doozy. I think, though, that after this one, the rest should be way lighter. If you're looking for a simple, easy letter, today is NOT the day to look at. This letter is long overdue. The first thing that many people asked me when they read my day 10 blog was "where's Megan's letter?" Well, here it is.

Megan Mullin
Megan, I don't even know where to start. Its kinda funny, since when we hung out, I don't think we ever shut up. We were together all day every day. Sometimes I wonder how we survived on such little sleep. You were so great. You didn't just show me your world, you shared it with me. You shared everyone and everything with me. You were more than just my best friend; you were my other half.
I decided that I needed to write you this letter, because this was the letter that meant the most to me. I know I've hurt a lot of people in the past few years, and I'm definitely not proud of who I've been the last year or so, but of all of the friendships that have been torn or strained, yours meant the most to me. You meant the most to me. You were so great to me, and you never judged me. You were my first real lasting friendship at Creighton, and I ruined that. I know it was totally me. And all I can say is that I'm sorry.
As far as friends go, you were pretty much the best. When I had a problem, no matter how big or small, you were there. When I had family problems, when I had school problems, you listened, and you always knew what I should do. When I didn't go home for Thanksgiving break, you extended your house and your family to me for the whole break. When I got dumped during that break, you drove back from a party immediately to be there for me. (You even took the speed bumps kinda fast :)) I spent more nights in your room on your futon (thank GOD it was comfortable!) than in my own room, and when my room was busy with tours all day, you let me take over your room. You were also the one who found my mountain dew covered laptop, and drove me to the apple store to see if it could be fixed. If I could go back to any time at Creighton, there is no doubt in my mind that I would go back to first semester.
I know that everything that happened between us was my fault. I know that I don't deserve you to ever forgive me. I'm asking anyways because I really miss you. I miss everything about how fun life was back then. I now know what my problem was, and I'm really sorry about everything. I was jealous of you and Katie moving on, and making new friends. I couldn't wrap my head around that we could still be friends, even though we were doing different things. I took way too drastic of measures, and I wish I could take it back.
I still don't know why I thought I had to cut you guys out of my life completely. I hate that I did. I would change it if I could, but I can't. I'm sorry about everything, and I hope that we can someday get past the last year and a half and move forward.
Megan, there's still so much more I need to say, and I know that this isn't nearly enough. I know that I hurt you more than anyone else, and I'm so sorry. I wish that a simple letter of apology could change everything, but I know that that's not possible. All I know how to say is that I'm sorry, and I miss you.

Love, Mb
