The Break-Up
Dear Sugar,
First of all I wanted to say, thank you for all the love you’ve shown me this holiday season! You are so sweet! Your generosity makes what I am about to say even more difficult.
I know this may come as a shock but I just don’t think this is going to work out. You may be surprised to hear this considering how well you’ve treated me this month and the fact that you get along so well with my good friends butter, pecan, lemon, and cocoa.
It’s not you, it’s me.
Well, it is sort of you. You’re just so…refined. You can’t provide me with the kind of roughage and color I need from this type of relationship.
I was wrong to lead you on like this, day after day, for the last few weeks. The truth is, it felt right at the time and I really did enjoy your company. But it’s almost 2012 and I need to make a clean break before the new year.
I hope we can remain friends, I just don’t think it’s healthy for me to see you everyday.
Sincerely,
Faith
