It's okay. No really, It's okay.
I know, you loved him. You thought you were going to be together forever. You are 18 years old, seriously, girl, get a grip.
Stop crying. Take a shower. Eat something other than chocolate. Drink something other than beer. Go to the gym.
You are in college. Go to a bar. Go to a party. Go be fun. You know, fun. Stop sitting around on your disgusting couch. Stop watching 90210 reruns. Kelly picks Dylan and all the other original actors leave in like season 12,000. And then come back. It's a bad show. No, really, it is.
While a part of you will always wonder what happened to him, he will become a faint a memory. You will have more boyfriends. You will fall in love again.
You are going to go to law school. You are going to pass the bar.
And most surprisingly to you right now, you will marry, someone else. A man who loves you, you! The real you. The you you don't let people see.
You will be happy.

Loved this letter. I could have written a similar one to myself at 17. Reminds me of the song by Brad Paisley

What a great letter!
And I agree, Beringer White Zin leaves much to be desired…but it isn’t the worse that I’ve ever had either.

Kelly is annoying and now she’s on dancing with the stars… even more annoying!
Nice letter, there are many girls that could benefit from reading that.
