I have no idea to what extent you've been hurt but I know you're hurt, nonetheless. It's heart-wrenching to just read of a distant friend's misery and not being able to lend a shoulder to cry on or to provide a listening ear. I am sure though, that being the strong girl that you always have been, you'll pull through the uphills and downhills of life with tremendous ease, given your personality and high character.

However, just a word of caution. As far as possible, stay away from them for the time being. Especially since you'll be sitting for a major examination this year. You really can't afford to be inundated by unnecessary worries, distraction and all other tumultous events which may cause your life to take a turn for the worse.

Just take care and don't let them hold you down or break your heart.

much love from a friend across the causeway.
