[MY DIVORCE LETTER]
Dear Junk Food,
Some meet in high school, others meet in college. Our love started long before that. As far back as I could remember, we would sit on the couch watching looney toons. You always had a way of making me feel giddy and happy. Over the years you have grown and taken on many forms. I've gotten to know all your dimensions. You have been there in my happiest moments and my darkest hours. I loved how you would dress up and wait for me in grocery stores. We went on trips together. Driving cross country and backpacking through Europe. You've seen me graduate and get my first job. I always thought of you as my biggest fan. We made it official, took our vows, and got married. We were inseparable and so deeply in love. I was loyal to you and I thought we would spend the rest of our lives together, but then you turned on me. I started seeing you at my friends' houses. In their cub bards and closets. I caught you once under their bed. I would see you all over the place. You were in fancy restaurants, fast food drive thrus, at movies, in cafes. I saw you with other women and even men! Being with you started to make me feel sick. The thoughts of all those nights we shared and the memories we had was nauseating and meant nothing.
I woke up one morning and stared in the mirror. I didn't recognize myself and what I had become. I am overweight and out of shape. I realize now that I was obsessed and addicted to you. It has destroyed me. I had enough. I am sick of supporting you.
I WANT A DIVORCE!!
