Hey, it's been a while, and just so you know, I'm not trying to do anything this time. I swear.
My mom got a job offer in California. I just thought you should know.
I know you're in Boston and all, and there's a high chance you won't read this email, but I just wanted to say goodbye.
You were right when you said we should've ended things off. I'm doing it now.
I love you. I do, Liv. But I know that sometimes loving someone means letting them go.

Goodbye (I'm serious, I mean it),
All the best,
Sam.

Me.
And now, I swear, I've gone from emails to texts. It's just so much easier. For everyone I guess.
