I should thank him, I really should. I now know that he isn't the most honest person and I know now that I should've thought before I trusted him as much as I did, but I also know that I would be a whole lot more naïve if it wasn't for him.

I used to ashamed of how I let him take advantage of me.

I used to be angry with him because of how he used me.

Now I just feel gratitude for it. Before you say that I'm crazy, just hear me out for a moment.

You know how easy it is for me to make friends-how much I give them the benefit of the doubt and always try to make an attempt to understand them? Well, he taught me how that could get me in trouble sometimes. I'm still the same, I won't avoid somebody because I don't want to get hurt again, but I'm also more cautious of who I associate with.

And you know how I used to brush people off when they talked bad about a new friend-or worse, argued with them-because I wanted to believe that the person wasn't like that? Well, thanks to him, I now like to hear the different opinions of other people. It gives me a new perspective to take into consideration.

So where does that leave me now?

I'm not completely sure, but even now, when just thinking about him enchants me, I have to remember everything (the good and the bad) in order to grow. I needed him.

So when all is said and done, I'm a new person because of him. In this tangled web of my life, he fits in perfectly. Thanks, Jet.

Ugh, it's not my best work, but this is how I feel about Jetara. So please review. Comments and constructive critcism is always welcome.
