Dear John Letter


By Definition:

A Dear John letter is a letter that a woman sends to her boyfriend or husband, telling him that she doesn't love him anymore or she wants to end the romantic relationship with him. It's what we call "A Breakup Letter."

======================================

Dear John:

Every time Annie reads my blog and concludes that my stories are about you and me, I cringe at the thought of us as a couple. However, this time I am writing about you and me. Unfortunately, I should tell you that it's Goodbye Forever!

I wish we'd ended everything when we had the chance. For the past six years, we've been lovers and friends. You've seen me through good times and difficult times. And I've always been here when you need me. Even though my family and friends didn't care much for you, I didn't call it quits and continue to be your very trusting friend.

Not only you didn't cherish our friendship but you make up stories, lies, and excuses in order to deceive me. Not just once, you did it again and again. What for? I still don't understand and will never forgive myself for taking you back in after each heartbreak.

Life's gotta be tough when everything you say is phony. How do you keep up with all that? If you ponder about your next career move, I say Hollywood is waiting for you. It's rare to find actors who can play more than two roles at once and still remember his lines perfectly!

In the past few weeks, I've been seriously thinking about ending everything between us. At the age of 32, I should know better and make better judgments. When I look back upon our relationship, all you've given me are lies, lies and more lies. Even when you're busted for lying and cheating, you always find excuses to blame on others. Nothing is ever your fault.

You should learn how to say "I'm Sorry" with sincerity. I used to think that the reason we would butt heads in our 20s was due to the fact that we're young. After I became romantically involved with a younger man, I realized that you're just not man enough to admit your own shortcomings. It's got nothing to do with youth. It's YOU.

At this time in my life, I would like to move on and let bygones be bygones. And I'm afraid that I'm going to break my promise. It's a promise I can't keep. Remaining friends is a noble concept but you simply cannot honor any friendship. And I shouldn't waste any second on someone who does not deserve my sincerity.

For the first time in my life, I'm breaking a friendship that's burned me once too many. I learn my lesson - Never trust a liar and a cheater! Everything works out for the best. And I thank god for giving me this wake-up call before it's too late.

As much as I would hate to admit it, my mom was right about you all along. If I had listened to her, I wouldn't have to take part in your make-believe world.

I wish you true love without lies. I wish you happiness without cheating. I wish you honesty without scheming against your future love.

Oh dear John, good luck in your quest to find THE ONE. This is Goodbye Forever.
