We never spoke in person after you asked me out. It lasted a week. You called me "it". You're going places now.

2. Sorry, I never really wanted you.

3. I thought I loved you. You were my first kiss in a movie theater arcade. You probably liked her all along. I was never the same after you.

4. I was your biggest mistake. You listened to music I pretended I had heard of and you played video games I pretended to be interested in. I have a soft spot for you.

5. You're my favorite almost. You're still nice to look at.

6. You fell in love with my best friend. You were my #9 to her. I hope you regret it.

7. You called me "baby" and said you loved me two days in. I don't think you know anything about me besides my name.

8. You let me sing you to sleep once. To everyone else, we were perfect. I didn't love you as much as I wanted to.

9. You're the nightmares. You are the broken pencil, the torn pages. You were my first everything. My first train wreck. You're a narcissist and I'm basically the anti-Christ to you. It's all been said before. I'm still not sorry.

10. You kissed me too soon. When you gave me your sweatshirt in the rain I saw how good you were. I hope you still have big dreams. I hope it didn't hurt when I never texted back.

11. I broke my phone and we didn't speak for a few days. By the time I was back on twitter you were already with someone else.

12. I was drunk. Delete my number.

13. You're unconquerable. I still question how badly I wanted you, maybe I just wanted to be the one that stayed. But I stayed. You're more than I can ever convey into words. I'm sorry we never really got to fall in love.

14. I don't remember half the night. I'm glad we had one day to forget.

15. You're a stranger. Maybe we've already met. Maybe I've known you my whole life. Maybe you live across the planet. Maybe you've always been close. Whoever you are, you're #15, and I hope I don't crush you. (Please don't crush me).
