Dear Roberta,
Remember how I said my vacation with Dacey was going great? Well, let me just change ‘great’ to ‘horrible.’ What happened? Her BOYFRIEND showed up.
Yes, that’s right. She has a boyfriend. His name is Trevor and he’s ALWAYS around. He and Dacey hold hands and share drinks and they’re constantly together. And what about me? I’m spending a lot of time with Dacey’s mom (who doesn’t really approve of Trevor, by the way). Also, I’m reading a ton of books (there’s a library close by).
I asked Dacey if she wanted to go shopping and maybe get manicures and guess what she said? “Only if Trevor can come along.”
You have GOT to be kidding me! I told her to forget about it and returned to the library to see if they had any new magazines in.
I don’t know how much longer I can take this, Roberta. I might just end up coming home early, movie or no movie. I’m bored and tired of being left on my own. Some summer this is turning out to be.
Love,
Cowabelle
PS – How are things with you?
Hope you find a way to have fun soon,Cowbelle.
Dacey needs understand that you can get boyfriends a dime a dozen, but true friends are rarer than diamonds the size of Russia, because boyfriends are not always going to be nice and may do things that can ruin life as you know it, but real friend will always be there.
I totally know how you feel, Cowabelle. My friend had a boyfriend (We were only in 6th grade!! That’s just crazy!) and she always talked about him to me and my BFF. She never even talked to him. She was always avoiding him and it was kind of annoying to me and my BFF. Don’t worry Cowabelle, she’ll come to her senses soon. If not, then spend your summer with Roberta. She is your true friend.
COME ON!!! Dacey is being really rude and she shouldn’t have a boyfriend in the first place!!!!! I mean how old is she 13!?!?!?!
Wow a boyfriend!!!! But I SO agree that she should spend time with you!!!!!
cowbelle, my summer been like that too. Join the club. :( :(
Cowabelle: Hey Darcey Wanna Go For Manicures And Shopping? Darcey: Only If Trevor Comes Too ????? I Really Believe Trevor Wants To Do THOSE Stuff! Really Darcey, Really??
Cowabelle, as you grow up, you’ll realize that when your friends start dating they’ll care more about their mate than you. It’s not that they don’t want to be your friend or that they no longer like you, it’s that they’re happy and in love and don’t want to spend time without who they’re most happy with. Just tell Dacey how you feel. She’ll understand.
Thats so funny! I went to camp the other day and that exact same thing happened to me!
I can’t beleive she has a BOYFRIEND!
