Below is a transcription of a note from a boy sent to my roommate in 2nd grade. This is exactly as it appears - no modifications have been made. It is truly this sad.
Dear Ashley,
I want to be your Girlfriend Girlfreind Girlfreind, but I still have to brek up with my Girlfreind. It’s hard to break up with her becasue my babysitter set me up with danielle my Girlfreind thats her name. My babysitters best freinds sister is my Girlfreind that is how set me up, And I don’t want to make my babysiter mad because she is fine. My babysiter, and her freind think that me and danielle have a good relationship, but we don’t because she’s in forth grade I don’t get to see her, and it is not fun just talking to her. I want to beat up Layn because I’ve never like him, and I no you, and him have a relationship I can tell, when I beat him up I will tell him to Leave you alone. Oh ya in the letter you tiped me why did you put “why do want to beet up Robert” that kind of stuped.
Love, Robert K_____
P.S. I hope you like me a boyfrreind because I like you a girl-freind, and Love you.
