Dammit, Manni, you won't have my friendship anymore either if you don't come visit me! :oP

Though, in all fairness, I suppose I could always come visit you instead. BUT it would be much easier for me the other way around, and I know you love me enough. I will make it worth the while, even if not sexually.

LoL, it may not be soon, but I promise you we WILL hang out.

I will be here most of the summer too so we can chill then ;)

it's not that i didn't like you... i just didn't like some of the stuff you seemed to be doing at the time. in the grand scheme of things, i was looking out for myself. i'm selfish just like everyone else and i suddenly felt as though you didn't deserve the amount of trust i had in you...

i wasn't condemning you by some angelic set of morals or anything of the sort. i would have had NO right to threaten our friendship based on the ethics of your behavior because i've done too many awful things in my life. i try my best to keep away from hypocrisy.

and all the stuff you confided in me... i never knowingly used any of it against you. regardless of what i maybe should have done, i never did actually tell certain people about certain things, despite... everything
