An Open Letter To My Ex (Blackberry)

It’s been 18 months since we parted ways. Yeah, I know we went round and round discussing the reasons but I just want to reaffirm that the first eight years or so of our relationship were amazing! You were everything I wanted and needed in a partner. We men are visual and you looked beautiful… a treat to my eyes. You were classy, simple, but had this refined flair that had me captivated. Sure, you were a little more voluptuous than some of the others, but I like ‘em thick. Truth is, your lovely visage wasn’t even the strongest thing you had going for you. You had me at “hello.” The way you communicated… woah! Even though our relationship was long distance, with you living all the way up there in Waterloo, Canada and me in Southern California, I’ve never met anyone who understood my needs and my wants the way you did and when things got hectic you never quit. I could rely on you for rock solid communication and conversation like no one else I’d ever known. But you already know all of that because I professed my love to you and anyone else who would listen. Often.

I guess I’m really writing this letter because, through our mutual social networking buddies, I found out you went and got a life coach. I’m really glad to hear that, being that the reason we broke up in the first place is that we just grew apart. There was so much color and culture and new things coming into our world and you just wouldn’t have any part of it. I wanted more out of life, but you were completely happy to remain, for the most part, just as you were. Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with that… you were, are, awesome. I just needed more. I still have feelings for you and I hope that this coach will help you to open up a little. Ok, a lot.
