bestfriend vs boyfriend breakup

the difference between breaking up with a boyfriend and a bestfriend is that when you date someone, you either know you're going to break up or spend the rest of your life with them. whenever you and a bestfriend break up, there's no expectation of failure with it.
the worse thing about a bestfriend breakup, is the memories that come along with it. there's no such thing as ex-memories even if there is an ex-bestfriend. how could one forget the limitless amount of sleepovers, years of friendships and the many pictures we have to remind us of the old friendship. one thing about today's world, is when you have a bestfriend break up, you have time hop to remind you of the friendship you once had.
every year, the same collection of memories will come up and you'll see the pictures but every time you see them it'll be another year has gone by and everyone knows that a lot can happen to a person within a year. it's hard to look at the pictures and realized one of the people in the picture changed for the worse and wrecked a friendship and I think it's even worse when you have to admit to yourself the person was you.
another thing with today's technology, you can still be updated with your old friend's life. you can know what they are for lunch, what book their reading, who their new bestfriend is, or anything in between. you get to see all of their successes and you can even let them know you support them from a like or a comment; but, in reality you know it hurts when you realize you weren't the one they called squealing or ran up to hugging when they found out their good news.
the reality of it is when you lose a bestfriend its a lot different then losing a boyfriend, you lose the memories, the shoulder that has all your past heartbreaks tears, and everything else with it.
hold onto your friends and forgive easily because nothing is worth losing a friendship over, especially if someone is your bestfriend.
