Hey, I’m Jasmine and I don’t know how to cheer people up after going through a breakup so I send them love letters. It started when my friend Josh told me that he broke up with his girlfriend Allison. He was heartbroken and extremely sad because she left him for a richer guy. I felt sorry for him and I hated seeing him depressed all the damn time so I thought what better way to cheer him up and make him forget Allison than a new potential relationship. I sent him an anonymous love letter telling him how handsome he was and that I loved everything about him. I may have gone overboard with it but why wouldn’t I? It was working! Josh was a little bit happier the next day. When I saw him bumped two days later, I sent him another letter and again, he fell for it and he looked better. I kept going on like this until Josh was himself and started dating again. I was proud. My letters were like therapy for him and I thought it could work with everyone around. So, everytime any of my friends, boys or girls, went through a bad breakup I would send them love letters. They would feel better and move on. However, there was this one time when it didn’t work. Peter, my childhood friend, broke up with his girlfriend, Maggie. They were together for 7 years. He was devastated. I sent him my usual letters, lots of them actually, but he never paid them any attention. He was sad for months. He even ditched all our meetings and movie dates. I was pissed. He was my buddy. So I decided to talk to Maggie. Maybe she can bring his sanity back! I texted her and we met at a restaurant. I told her how Peter was feeling and that he was crushed after their break up. I asked her if she could fix things up with him or even give him a call to make him feel better. But she refused. She told me that she moved on and that she started dating a guy called Jordan. Maggie was not an option.So, I decided to step up my game. If regular love letters wouldn’t do the trick then personal ones would . I wanted to send Peter personal letters that actually describes his features, his good side to remind him why he deserves better. For a week I made it my mission to observe him. I followed him to his work, I went to his apartment and pretended to need his help so I can spend as much time as possible with him. I also booked us lots of activities to keep his mind busy and keep Maggie out of his mind [ note to the animator: pictures of swimming, hiking, walking in a festival, eating in restaurants, etc.]. I watched how he walked, how he talked, and how he interacted with people, and then I sent him hand-written letters to his office. But, something funny happened along the way. I began having feelings for Peter. I don’t know why, but it just what happened. I started dreaming about him, I hated seeing him with other girls and I just wanted him to pay attention to me. Just like that, my letters became real, full of affection and honest emotions! But I couldn’t say anything to him, not when he was all ca
