I'm writing a goodbye letter to a girl because I'm moving away. How does this sound?

Dear Jenny,

So this is goodbye! Our time together was...wierd, but very meaningful to me. I'm sorry I didn't have the time/freedom to leave a better impression.

Anyway, I hope you get everything you want in life. I'll always remember you

Love,
Dan

>> No.6696708

Dear Jenny,

It is on this note that we part ways, perhaps forever. But what is "forever" if not an abstraction, so that it becomes stale and meaningless if one dwells on it for too long? Aimless thoughts sweep me into a melancholic state when I think about not seeing you again, but I know that they are just that: thoughts. What is important—what is most important—is that we had the opportunity to experience one another. To ask for more seems greedy, almost disgusting, although there is the irremovable part of myself—that whisper in the back of my consciousness—which longs to have made a better impression on you; I wish that I could have, however meandering and useless this line of thinking is. How useless thought is! How weird everything is. Our time together certainly affirms the weirdness of existence . . . Anyway, I hope that you are able to overcome the aformentioned sense of weirdness, of futility, of longing, so that you may realize yourself—your hopes, ambitions, etc., whatever it is that you aim at in life. I will always hold an image of you in my mind, as the surest indicator that we are not strictly tied to the phenomenal world, that there is something greater, something sweeter which can be glimpsed (if only for a fleeting moment). Goodbye, and with love—

Dan

Does it not strike anyone that this sounds a bit insincere? I can't imagine someone, in heavy heart, approaching their beloved and saying something equivalent in its formality. Also, I don't think it's a good idea to introduce the letter with that direct an answer, especially if Jenny does not know, to begin with, that you intend to break up with.

I'm assuming that's the reason since you reek of beta in your first draft.

Dear Jenny,

I imagined the Augustus Waters analysis of that comment: If I am playing basketball in heaven, does that imply a physical location of a heaven containing physical basketballs? Who makes the basketballs in question? Are there less fortunate souls in heaven who work in a celestial basketball factory so that I can play? Or did an omnipotent God create the basketballs out of the vacuum of space? Is this heaven in some kind of unobservable universe where the laws of physics don't APPLY, and if so, why in the hell would I be playing basketball when I could be flying or reading or looking at beautiful people or something else I actually enjoy? It's almost as if the way you imagine my dead self says more about you than either the person I was or whatever I am now.”

Some infinities are bigger than other infinities.

Love,

Dan

Meaning? What is meaning but an a posteriori ape brained fiction to explain which would regardless of explanation remain the same? How I wish you could view me as I view myself, rather than how I am!

Look forward to keeping in touch,

So this is a goodbye. I will always remember that time you allowed me perform cunnilingus on you. I hate that I did not get to fully engage in coitus with you.

Anyway, I hope you get everything you want in life, but not really, because I did not get everything I wanted from you.

I will always remember the sweet taste of your vagina and the bitter aftertaste of your boyfriend's penis.

My dear Jennifer,

Even though I'm going away and will most likely never see you again, I wish once more to draw attention upon myself, this time hopefully in a vague and mysterious way. We will live our separate lives, but I wish to plant in your sweet little head a seed of doubt. Doubt about what could have been, about how special I seem in retrospect, maybe even seducing you to think during the years to come what a future with me would have been like.

Of course I will be off living my own life, but it would greatly flatter my ego to entertain the possibility that somewhere some girl has maybe reserved a little mental compartment of melancholy and regret dedicated to that one truly nice guy that got away.

Hereby accept my magnanimous wishes that you will have a great life without me, the gentle nobility of this gesture only highlighting what a gentleman I am and how much you have missed out on by friendzoning me.

Brooding ellipses,

Daniel

Dear Jenny,

I'm writing you a goodbye letter which is antiquated and fucking stupid of me. There are such means as Facebook and Twitter and our phones to keep in touch, but because I'm so detached from a datable, employable, respectable understanding of the world - those won't do. I post on 4chan in /lit/ to seem more intelligent than I truly am. I left a bad impression with you because I don't leave my house often enough, in fact, I'm not even sure we've had a date beyond that one time we met in an elevator.

I'm seeing a psychiatrist regularly and I will report how the Quetiapine works for me. Currently they're making me take blood tests to check my liver, I guess because the drug can affect it too.

Well - farewell, Jenny. It was nice knowing you. I'll be sure to remember you any time I step foot in an elevator again.

Regards,
A nimrod.

Dear Jenny,

I was happy with you, once. I knew you, once. And looking forward we are no longer together. The once we shared seemed, as it happened, to be something other than a moment - yet it only ever could have been that, and it only ever could have given way to a future which empties every universal of its contingent contents, which hollows us all out until we are only empty forms, to be filled and then emptied. I want you to know only this, that the memories I will forever carry within me will defy the ineluctable passage of time, that I will raise them like the savage raises his wooden idol of some forgotten pagan god against the specter of death and the humanness of unbecoming: or else I shall hold our memories delicately between my hands, like a bowl of milk.

Dan

Dear Jenny,

So this is goodbye! Our time together was...wierd, but very meaningful to me. I still remember that sunset when I found you squatting in the grass, groaning. Every stool was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time the moon came up you were shitting brown water. The more you drank, the more you shat, but the more you shat, the thirstier you grew, and your thirst sent you crawling to the stream to suck up more water. When you closed your eyes at last, you did not know whether you would be strong enough to open them again. Well, I'm glad you were.

Anyway, I hope you get everything you want in life. I'll always remember you.

Love,
Dan
