My Vows to My Long-Distance Bestie

Hey there, Bestie!

I know it wasn’t easy when I packed up and left. You’re fully aware of all my reasons, so there’s no need to rehash it. But if there was ever a reason to stick around, it would definitely be you. We’ve shared half our lives, navigating through those cringeworthy teenage years together—somehow, we came out the other side. I honestly can’t fathom doing adulthood without you by my side.

Let’s face it—I’m still figuring out this whole adulting thing, and so are you, which makes it all feel a lot less intimidating. I really tried to convince you to come along, but alas, adult responsibilities got in the way. Believe me, I thought about how to sneak you and your kids on a plane with me. It’s a bummer that I can’t just drop by to soak up your air conditioning and binge-watch our favorite shows on Hulu. Plus, the time difference makes it tricky to know when you’re busy, especially when I’m having one of my crisis moments. I didn’t want to leave you, but please remember—you’ll always be my irreplaceable best friend, no matter the miles between us.

I vow to connect with you (almost) every single day.

Leaving you behind meant losing that effortless communication we had. We used to chat daily—whether through texts, Messenger, or Snapchat. There’s no reason we can’t keep that up! The time zone difference sometimes works in our favor; I often wake up to find you’ve had an adventure while I slept. I may not be the first to hear your news, but it’s a fabulous way to kick off my day. So expect to see my memes popping up in your inbox, just because.

I promise I’ll never try to replace you.

Honestly, no one comes close. You know far too much about my life, and I don’t have the energy to start fresh with someone new. Sure, I’ll make new friends, but they’ll never match the bond we share. Our history is what makes our friendship truly special.

I promise I’ll always seek your advice first.

You’re the only one who can call me out when I’m being unreasonable or overly sensitive. Your unique brand of tough love is what really pushes me to gather my courage and make changes when needed—especially because you always back up your words!

I promise I won’t forget any of your important dates.

Your birthday is already on my radar—I’ve celebrated it so many times, it’s ingrained in my memory. I’ll keep track of all the significant milestones in my planner. Gifts might arrive a bit late (you know how I feel about the post office), but rest assured, something is on the way!

We will get that tattoo someday, I promise.

Whenever we can agree on what to get, that is!

I promise my door is always open.

I know getting to me isn’t as simple anymore, but if you call me from the airport saying you’re on your way, I’ll make sure the guest room is ready for you. I might even clean up a little, but let’s be real—I’m a hot mess, and you know it.

Lastly, I promise you’ll always be my best friend.

Go ahead and roll your eyes; I know you want to. But I don’t care because I love you! Now, please respond to my texts already.
