I have known this guy since the 1st grade. I moved in the 4th grade to a new school. I looked forward to middle school so I could see my old friends because I didn’t really make any at my new school. I was put into Matt’s choir class in middle school. We were best friends up until 11th grade. He got me through a lot in school. My dad had never really been a part of my life until I was 16 and my mom was an alcoholic who would leave us at my grandparents when ever she felt like getting away. A few years after high school we became friends again and he helped me through my emotions about my dads cancer since my husband at the time wasn’t and helped me through that divorce(he left me for someone else 3 months into marriage). Then we stopped being friends again. 10 years later I’m married with 3 kids. I have no friends and never get out the house to do my own thing. He messages me. We become friends again. The last few years have steadily been getting more difficult. Me and my husband I think are on the verge of divorce and I’m still having a hard time dealing with my sons diagnosis of autism sometimes. I don’t know how I would deal with this if I didn’t have him to talk to. I almost doubted he wanted to be friends cuz we hardly hung out so I decided to delete his number and stop asking him to hangout. 15 mins later he called me to hangout which he never did even in high school. He just keeps coming into my life when things get hard and I have no one else.
