My Commitments to My Long-Distance Bestie

Dear Bestie,

I want to apologize for leaving. You’re aware of all the reasons behind my move, so I won’t go into detail. Just know that if there were ever a reason to stay put, it would be you. We’ve been inseparable for half our lives. We navigated through those cringe-worthy teenage years and somehow emerged unscathed. I honestly can’t fathom tackling adulthood without you by my side.

Adulting is tough, and believe me, you’re not alone in finding it overwhelming. That’s what made our journey together so much easier and less intimidating. I did try to convince you to come with me, but let’s face it—adult responsibilities got in the way. I even contemplated how to sneak you and your kids onto a plane with me. It’s frustrating not being able to swing by and take advantage of your cool air conditioning and binge-watch our favorite shows together. It’s equally tough trying to determine if you’re free when I’m in crisis mode, especially with the time difference. Despite the miles between us, you remain my dearest friend.

I promise to reach out to you nearly every day.

One of the hardest parts about moving away is losing the spontaneity of our conversations. We used to chat almost daily through texts, Facebook Messenger, and Snapchat. There’s no reason we can’t keep that up. The time difference can even work in our favor; often, when I wake up, you’ve already had some exciting adventure. I might not always be the first to know, but hearing about your day is a fantastic way to start mine. Whether it’s sharing a funny meme or just saying hi, I’ll make sure to keep in touch.

I promise you are irreplaceable.

Honestly, no one could ever take your place. You know too much about me, and I lack the energy to build that kind of bond with someone new. Sure, I’ll meet new people, but they’ll never compare to the history we share. That connection is what makes our friendship unique.

I promise to seek your advice first.

You’re the only one who can call me out when I’m being unreasonable or overly cautious. Your tough love is the only kind that really pushes me to get my act together. You follow through on your promises, and that means the world to me.

I promise I won’t forget your special days.

I’ve still got your birthday locked in my memory (after celebrating it for years, it’s hard to forget). I’ve marked all the important dates in my planner, so even if my gifts arrive late (thanks to my ongoing postal struggles), you can count on something making its way to you.

I promise we’ll get that tattoo someday.

Whenever we figure out what we want, of course!

I promise my door will always be open.

I know it’s not easy to visit me now, but if you ever find yourself at the airport, just give me a call, and I’ll make sure to prepare a cozy spot for you (I might even tidy up a bit, but let’s not get our hopes too high since we both know I’m a bit of a mess).

And above all, I promise you’ll always be my best friend.

Go ahead and call me sentimental; I know you’re rolling your eyes right now. But you know what? I don’t care because I love you. Now, please respond to my texts, okay?

In summary, distance may separate us, but our friendship is as strong as ever. I’m committed to staying in touch, cherishing our bond, and being there for each other, no matter the miles between us.
