"to #681:
Time really flies. Though I feel like I've known you forever, I also remember the day we met like it was just yesterday. I remember the great times we had together during IP11 and beyond. I remember the best friend a guy could ever ask for.
And then I remember being so confused. I didn't understand what had happened, how it had happened, even after I went to visit you. And then, as I slowly understood, I could only think of how much I wished I could help you. "Be his friend" they told me, and so that's what I did. I kept up with you, I checked up on you every once in a while, and when your Facebook posts got dark or indicated another rough time for you, I contacted you right away.
I've told you this a million times before and I'll say it a million times again: you will always have me and #686 and all our other friends to help you, to support you. We will never give up on you, and we will always be waiting for you to come back. And when you do, and I am sure you will very soon, we will take you back with open arms. So no matter how dark the day or how endless and unstoppable your OCD might seem, know that there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and plenty of close friends to guide you there and help you as much as they can along the way."

"My friends all think I was being a dick when I became a shut in during IAP/Second Semester when the reality was that I was struggling with my sexuality, crippling mood swings, my shitty grades and the fact that my parents would disapprove of who I've (Bi & Atheist) become and I became a shut in when I found that the one person I talked to about personal things would tell his friends about my business. I didn't mean to hurt anyone I just needed to be alone. I lost all semblance of a social life but I pulled my grades out of the trenches and for the first time in a year I'm happy. Sorry to those I hurt, I hope you all have a great year w/o me. I'll be spending a year studying abroad to finally get a change of pace."

"I've never had a real boyfriend. I've been out on a few dates (countable on my fingers) and pseudo-dated someone in high school. I want a boyfriend, but I don't how to find the right guy..."

"2.006 you have officially destroyed my chance of getting into MIT for graduate school. I know that a "C" is not the end of the world, but this killed my GPA, killed all my hope. Farewell, MIT..."
