JAYSSON
I’ve spent this entire wedding avoiding you.
It’s true.
On the flight over here I couldn’t stop thinking about you.
Not in a –
You know what I mean.

Right?
I super got all in my head about what I would say to you or… what you would say to me.


It’s just that it’s been, I don’t know, 6 years or something since we last spoke and…

I’m not like in love with you anymore or anything but the way we left things, you said we would talk again when you were ready. And I checked in on Thanksgiving. And when you said you still weren’t ready I checked in again at Christmas and after you said you were still not ready I left it alone – assuming you’d let me know when you were ready.

And then 6 years passed by.
And now here we are.
At Sage’s wedding.


I didn’t realize it would be this long until I saw you again.
Or hell – spoke to you again.
But anyways, yeah. I avoided you this whole weekend because I honestly didn’t know what to say and even though – again, I’ve moved on and clearly you have too…
Seeing you made the world pause a bit for me.
Not in that heart stopped kind of way that you used to do to me but the –

“Hey. That was a time in your life. And even though it was so long ago. It was also not that long ago. And even though you have moved on, it still had such an impact on your life. And even though you are both in a new chapter, that chapter you left was a little unresolved.”

I don’t know what I’m saying anymore.
I’m rambling.
This is what I was afraid would happen.

So…

Here we are.
I don’t know how to do this.
Clearly.
So…
I guess I should’ve started with this.
Hi. 

END.
