A Break Up Letter to Kenyon Wifi

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Kenyon chapter.

Dear Kenyon Wifi,

I’ve been doing some thinking, and we need to talk. I know this has been a really busy time for you, so I hate to do this now, but the problems in our relationship are becoming too prevalent to ignore. I’m just going to come out and say it. Kenyon Wifi, I think we should break up.

When things first started getting serious, we were in our honeymoon phase. Even when we didn’t connect every now and then, we still found a way to work through it and accomplish so many things together. But, since our relationship has progressed, I can’t help but notice the foundations of our love splitting at the seams. If you want an explanation, here it is:

Even when I have repeatedly logged in, you continue to question me and ask me to do it again. Why don’t you trust me? I’m sorry, I just can’t be with someone that needs me to prove myself so often.

I also just really need you sometimes, like when I have a paper due online in five minutes––and suddenly you just abandon me. It makes me feel so vulnerable and lost. How could you do that to me? You know I need you. But you leave anyway. It’s like I can’t even trust you anymore.

Speaking of trust, where do you go when you disappear? Are you with someone else? When I try to get you back, it can take forever to work–you’re just suddenly ‘unable to connect.’ Who are they? Are they worth it?

All of these thoughts are constantly running through my mind, and I find myself worrying about the next time you might skip out on me. I know I can’t go on like this any longer, which is why I think we need to be apart. It’s for the best.

I don’t know how I’m going to live without you, but I have to give myself a chance at life and true love. I know I won’t be able to help but look back to see if you’ve had a change of heart. It’s hard not to hope someday you might love me the way I once loved you.

Until then, we can’t continue to be in a relationship that is a lie. I hope you can move on and reconnect––and don’t ever say I didn’t fight for you.

I wish you the best.

 

Sincerely,

Maddy Moriarty
