A letter from Jan 06, 2026

Dear FutureMe, 2025 went well for me. I was doing good enough in school, for a diploma at least. And I developed a nice connection with a boy. In 2025, a lot of things went well for me. I made new friends and got accepted into multiple colleges. I stayed on top of grades and at least tried to study. Still, at the start of 2026, me and the boy ended things. This is ruining me in ways that I haven't been put down before. I miss him and I'm scared that this is going to affect my school life. This year I hope to fix my mental health and just be a better person mentally and physically. Part of me knows that this hurt will never pass through and I'll always think about it, but life does move on whether you move with it or not. During this year I know I'm going to be out of it for the next few months. This sucks. I hate being sad and I want to be happy. No matter how many times I tell myself that time will pass, I will always think about him and if he's coming back. Now I'll just have to put on a mask for the sake of my future. My goals for 2026 are to just truly be happy.
