Dear Old Love,

VARSITY
I should have given you my letter jacket senior year.

FIND AND REPLACE
Every time you say “girlfriend,” in my head I swap
it for another word, like “aunt.”

LEVI SPOUSE
My wife wonders why I keep that old pair of jeans.
It’s because I was wearing them the last time I was with you.

TRUE DOV WAITS
I wish American Apparel had been around when we were
together. I would’ve relentlessly stuffed you into
their underwear. Just thinking about it makes me quiver.

MY TINE
The way you held your fork, I knew I’d do
anything you suggested.

A BURRITO SUPREME
When your new hippie friends abandon you, I’ll be here
waiting. With Taco Bell.

HAD ME A BLAST
You broke my heart once, and when you return for the
summer, I will let you do it again.

Along the lines of favorites such as Post Secret and F My Life, Dear Old Love is a new blog where posters anonymously send short notes 'to' their old loves. I expected a lot of hostility, but not all are so. The posts range from sweet to bitter, from angry to relieved. Though I don't think there's as much of a release as Post Secret (or you know, calling the person), the site has me hooked for the time being.
