Dear "You"...From "Me"-Letters Unsent
Dear American School System,
You are doing everything wrong.
You have ruined the mental state of me and many others.
You put too much emphasis on grades and not enough on knowing whether or not they actually know the thing.
You are unable to tell a good writer who can’t find the right words to describe her thoughts on a specific thing from a bad essay writer.
You are very bad.
Go reform yourself or I’ll go get the rest of my education from youtube and wikipedia.
Love, me
Dear upstairs neighbor,
I don't know why you stomp around sometimes. Especially now, when it's quiet hrs. I had to call the live-in officer to put in a noise complaint. There is no reason that you need to be constantly sounding angry up there.
It isn't as bad tonight, but I hate to be expecting bad things.
I hope the noise complaint will do something.
I hate having bad thoughts in response to this.
I'm sensitive to noise and getting angry.
Be quiet and go to sleep.
Or, here's a bad thought, just leave!
It was quiet the 1rst 2 nights!

Dear Ex-Girlfriend,
WTH do you keep trying to come back into my life the way you've been doing so since last summer? You're the one who broke off all contact with me about a year before it began, not vice versa. In fact, if my current GF ever meets you, she would easily win in a battle of wits.
Signed,
Your Ex

Dear Ex-Girlfriend again,
Get the hell out of my head and stop trying to win me back! You'll won't admit it to anyone, but IMO, you still love playing mind games with people you know, including your co-workers.
Signed,
Your Ex

R,
I hope what happened between us upset you sometimes. I hope you get as upset as I do.
Did you ever really like anything I liked or was it all an act? You ruined a heck of a lot of stuff for me.
Were you the neighbour who apparently robbed stuff out of flats? I'd say allegedly but it isn't the worst thing you've ever done if you did it.
You were absolute Teflon. Living in that town, in that neighbourhood but nobody said anything to you. Or did you keep stuff from me? Why was that? Did you ever ask yourself why that was?
Did people avoid saying or doing anything to you cos of the company you kept... Even when I fancied you I knew he was a stinky chav. I did have taste, after all.
f**k you.
Not literally.

PS I'll probably not feel this way by morning cos this is such a love hate cycle.

I write to you a lot but can you please just tell me why you never once knocked on R's door and threatened him or something?
If you did he never told me.
You were always hassling me instead. Coward.
I had the last laugh with you though.

Is this how mental illness begins? I know I have social anxiety but these rants read like schizophrenia and I'm scared cos of the genes inside of me.
Your 'darling daughter'
WP,
I think it feels like schizophrenia cos I'm writing a letter to someone I'll never send it to and that's a bit weird.
Esp when it's an angry one.
Not evil weird just odd. Like a one way conversation.
Does anyone else feel like that with the writing of these letters?
Sorry to get all meta just puzzling stuff out.

Dear You (Plural),
You want to be told that you are nice people, good people, wonderful people; you want to hear how you are in the right for doing the wrong things; you blame everyone else for all of the bad choices you've made; you claim to be nice to everyone, but we all know better; you want to believe that you live in a perfect world where everyone approves of your actions no matter how deeply they have hurt you or others; you hide this all behind claims of persecution and discrimination; and finally, every one of you actually wants people to like you after all of the crap you've pulled.
It ain't gonna happen.
It just ain't gonna happen.
Sincerely,
Fnord

Dear ex,
You were never real to me.
You and I had such good times, but you don't care. I think you don't know how to love. Why the crap did you stay with me then leave me at the most crucial of times?
My heart is betrayed.
I know we both did wrong, but this isn't right is it?
You are manipulative. Were you ever real?

No.
I've never felt schizophrenic from writing a letter.
Dear you,
I miss you, you were the one that got away. I regret ever letting that happen.
I miss your kindness. I miss your desire to grow as a person, and your desire to see me grow as well. I miss the way you would say "kiss me like you mean it." I miss the way you would look at me with the most caring eyes. I miss the times when I worked from home at night, and you would come over and stay up all night because we didn't want a moment to pass by without being together. I miss the feeling of comfort and protection that you always gave me. I miss being able to share my deepest thoughts and feelings with you, without being judged. Everyone pales in comparison to you, my sweet friend. You were an exceptional friend, and I still think about you all the time.. even years later. You made me feel like a real woman. For the first time, I felt like a woman who loved her man.
I'm sorry for hurting you. I'm sorry for letting you move to another state without telling you I didn't want you to go. I didn't want you to go! And I didn't know that you wanted to hear me say that.. I just thought I was supporting you. I couldn't let myself be the reason why you didn't pursue your dreams. I'm sorry for everything.
Love,
Me

Dear ex,
You may have used me, but I'm taking care of our son. I hope that your life goes better. I hope you don't take advantage of a younger woman again.
What were you thinking?
Oh, yeah you weren't.
At that time I wasn't either.
We were just two losers in crisis that got together.
I'm not proud enough to pretend I wasn't that to you.
I had told you as much truth as I could.
You didn't.
You got your kicks and may have realized that oh yeah, the one you were in a relationship is human.
Thanks for the money at least.
It's the least you are doing for us.
And, I hope you do what we agreed on. And,
I hope I get over you and forgive.

Dear MF from that horrible day 2/17/1998,
I can't believe how much you misled me and exploited my obvious vulnerability. I was young and stubborn, but you fed me a trail of tainted breadcrumbs and watched with dispassion as your sheer incompetence systematically ruined my life. How could you be so careless? How could you lie with no remorse? Were you held accountable? Despite your blatant malpractice it seems you walked free. What did you lose that day? I lost nearly everything. I've been paying financially, psychologically and emotionally, ever since. I'll be paying forever, but I'm sure you've forgotten such trivial matters as my existence. The snowball of your ineptitude grew insidiously and led to the darkest days of my life, which nearly killed me and my family. You sauntered away without so much as an apology, offering neither direction nor recompense. If there is justice in the universe, I can only hope you learned from your mistake and that you'll feel 1/10th of the pain you inflicted on me.
That girl you don't remember,

Dear Person A,
I know you probably won't read this, but this is for you. Why are you so rude to me when I try to be polite to you? It is a hidden social rule that if someone is nice to you, you should return the favor. I know you know this, but you obviously refuse to follow it. You know why I gave up on trying to be friends with you.
I don't get why you can act so friendly and cordial towards others but not towards me. You seem so cold and unemotional if I try to talk to you. I don't care anymore if you want to be friends with me or not because you are CLEARLY avoiding me.
You have one day to make up for your rudeness. If you do not do this, you'll lose a follower on Instagram.
Sincerely,
warrier120

Dear neighbor up above me,
I've gotten more used to not being as mad. You don't stomp around as much as you did the day you scared the hell out of me. But, sometimes you just annoy me. And, sometimes it turns to anger. I have to be careful. What pisses me off is when you do start to get rowdy lately, it's at night. Like when I am barely hearing music when you never did that before. I hope you get the hint when I banged on the wall. I don't care if that makes me bad at the moment because I don't want to get dressed to ask you to turn it down. I think you got the message but I feel like I still hear something. I'll either go to sleep soon, bang on the wall again, or possibly call the police if it gets bad. I have no patience for this crap.
