An Open Letter to “Even”
I never really understood “open letters”. As I came to comprehend the definition I still wasn’t sure why they had the title or their ultimate purpose. Oddly enough here I am writing one because I want to get this off my chest.
I can’t say what I need to this person (you’ll see why). But I really need to let it out in the open. Maybe it will reach them physically or energetically. Or maybe it will clear a few things up for those who’ve heard of this nonsense.
When Jay was an infant I met a wonderful human during some volunteering I was doing. I’ll call them “Even”. 9-10 years later we wound up working together and became great friends. Our energy was more than magnetic. It was palpable. This was a wonderful friend that I could rely on for sincere feedback and moral support.
That employment juncture ended and we crossed paths again at another job. The cool thing was our friendship never dwindled through this time. So it was just cool working with a friend (again).
About 4 months in to this job I met a young lady that seemed peculiar to me. I didn’t know why then but I simply watched her though she always seemed to venture my way without my pulling. The next year my dumb ass became her “friend”. We hit it off well and were able to commiserate about work and parenting, while enjoying some fun.
A few months into being “friends” I realized she was dating a man I used to date. I didn’t tell her at first because I wasn’t sure how she’d respond. Plus I had this feeling (I ignored) that she used to like my ex-bf, and previously had the hots for my current man.
Things got odd fast: my phone was acting crazy (loud beeps, missed calls, blocked contacts, erased call logs, phantom phone mess, etc.) my ex-bf was randomly calling me about her, she claimed he was messaging her on FB, and she was calling my current guy “to defend me”. If that wasn’t enough somehow pix of me in my bathing suit wound up on “Even’s” phone...pix she had taken while we were on business travel.
I tried to let it all slide. Meanwhile she claimed someone was harassing her on her phone. Oh, yeah...and she was very curious about my relationship with “Even”. I could tell she was interested in, and I simply told her to go for it.
While I was out from surgery she kept telling me about this phone harassment and how someone spoofed her phone. I just listened. It sounded like some immature nonsense I wanted no part of. Little did I know, I was.
One night I called “Even” because we had not talked in awhile. When we got on the phone “Even” commenced to cursing me out and accusing me of harassing their phone...guess how? Spoofing was the claim. I was astonished! I was so hurt that they did not believe me, and no longer wanted to be friends.
I knew immediately what had taken place I’d been framed! From there ensued so much more madness. This girl ran my name through the mud with this awful story. She tried to use it and other lies to get my new bf to leave me; saying I egged a man’s house, busted out another man’s car windows, robbed her house, and jumped her at a club. It almost worked; until I pulled up on them one day and she sped off because she refused to face me.
At one point she tried to come talk to me to clear the air. She claimed she figured out who the “real” culprit was, and she was going to press charges. But that was a lie too. She continued to lie on me and my reputation slowly was ruined in my place of work. Not only had I lost a true friend but also the joy in my career.
I eventually left that job, and got something truly sent from God. I don’t hate either of them. But sure wish I had a chance to express all the facts. I was so hurt behind this that I’d be willing to share my phone app history so they could see I’ve never downloaded such apps used to spoof a phone.
So “Even” if you receive this please know: I have miss our friendship over the years. I’m proud of you and I thank you for all of your friendship. Please know that I’d never do anything to jeopardize that. Those lies and accusations were a plot to assure that our connection was severed so you could have the relationship you enjoyed with her, and for her to stage her career elevation. I pray for your continued success.
Bless.
