I feel bad about doing it this way, but the internet seems to be the only method you two can process.

I can't do it. I love you guys and we've been friends for a long time, but I just can't do it anymore. I've exhausted every other option on multiple occasions. I've tried being subtle and passive aggressive, but you two are as oblivious as it comes. I've tried talking to your faces and being as politely blunt as possible, but you two just throw me excuses. So, I can't.

Sam, I talked to you in confidence. Given Candice and Olive were there, but I spoke to you open and honestly and told you what my issue was. And instead of treating it like a real situation, you turn around and create an opening for a whole mess of hot drama. Nothing I say gets through to you. Ever. And you always say how it hurts that we lump you together, but it's kind of hard when you go and make Steph's problems your own. Or, better yet, introduce them to her.

To be blunt, you're inconsiderate and ungrateful. And completely racist. You can be the most fun person in the world to be with....when you're feeling like it. When you're too busy holding a grudge or picking up after Steph's pity parties, you make me honestly want to rip my own hair out. But I've come to realize, that's just who you've become. And there's nothing I can say or do to change that.

I'm not saying you're a bad person, just not someone I can deal with.

I don't mean to sound at all hateful, but I will admit to being beyond frustrated with this situation. Especially since this isn't the first time. So the only solution now seems to be that I shouldn't put myself in a position to receive such stress. I will be civil to you, no matter what, but I'm almost certain that we can no longer continue to hang out or be as close as we once were. I've said nothing of this to Candice and Olivia, so please treat them the same way you have been and continue to hang out.

Best Wishes
Lyndis

p.s. I feel this is obvious, but I've been wrong before, so I'm saying it plainly. Aquae will not be finished, as that requires good terms. And I will not have my name, time, and hard work put with stolen artwork.
