So, I've been having this ongoing existential crisis with my pen pal. You see, on one hand, they're a consistent part of my life. I mean, the anticipation of a letter arriving, the excitement of unraveling the mysteries of their life - it's like a treasure hunt with words. But on the other hand, they're also the root cause of my anxiety! I mean, imagine this: You write a letter, pour your soul into it, confess all your secrets, fears, and dreams, seal it with a stamp of trust, and send it off. But then what happens? Days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months, and the only reply you receive is your own echo bouncing off the walls of your lonely mailbox.
It's like a one-sided relationship with a phantom. You spill your deepest thoughts, and in return, you get a void. It's the ultimate "read at 8:32 PM" without a "typing" sign in sight.
And the worst part is when you finally get a response after what feels like an eternity. You tear open the envelope, hopeful for a sign that your pen pal remembers your existence, and what do you find? A generic postcard with a brief description of their day and a half-hearted attempt at interest in your life. It's like receiving a pat on the back when you were expecting a warm embrace.
I'm starting to believe that pen pals are like Schroedinger's Cat - simultaneously alive and dead until you open the mailbox and collapse the wave function.

You know, folks, I recently decided to go old-school and get myself a pen pal. Yeah, that's right, like the good ol' days when email wasn't a thing and we actually had to lick stamps. So, I found this person online who was into the same things as me: movies, food, and conspiracy theories. Seemed like a match made in heaven, right? But let me tell you, having a pen pal in this day and age is like trying to communicate with a carrier pigeon that took a detour to Bermuda. I sent my pen pal a letter, poured my heart out, talked about my life, my dreams, my embarrassing childhood stories - the whole package. And you know what I got back? A postcard. A postcard! Not even a full letter. It said, "Hey, great to hear from you. Had sushi today. Bye." I'm out here composing Shakespearean masterpieces, and I get hit with a haiku about sushi.
But I thought, okay, let's give it another shot. I send another letter, trying to keep the faith, hoping for a deeper connection. Weeks go by, and finally, I receive a response... a chain letter! You know, those "send this to 10 people or else" kind of letters. I was so close to sending it out of sheer desperation, thinking, "Maybe this is how they communicate now. Maybe this is the modern pen pal exchange program!"
It's like trying to build a friendship with a ghost. You pour your soul into a letter, send it into the void, and hope for some spectral response. At this rate, I'm starting to think my pen pal is actually a robot programmed to send vague, non-committal responses. I mean, how can someone say so little in so many words?
So, here I am, stuck in this pen pal purgatory, questioning if this is a friendship or an experiment in patience. But hey, maybe one day I'll receive a carrier pigeon with a USB drive attached, and that'll be our breakthrough in communication.

Having a pen pal is like signing up for a suspenseful thriller with a snail mail delivery service. You write your letter, seal it with hopes and dreams, and then the waiting game begins. It's like planting a friendship seed and waiting for it to sprout into something meaningful. But what you get instead is a monthly newsletter of disappointment. And let's talk about the inconsistency. I mean, one day you receive a heartfelt letter, and you're like, "Wow, this is it, this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." The next month, nothing! No Morse code signals, no smoke signals, just radio silence. It's like your pen pal disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle of penmanship.
But here's the kicker - just when you've accepted the fact that your pen pal might have been abducted by aliens, you receive a surprise package. Excitement hits, you rip it open, and what do you find? An assortment of candies and a note that says, "Sorry, got busy. Here are some sweets. Catch you later." Oh sure, let's sweeten the absence with candy, because that's how friendships work, right? You vanish for months and reappear with sugar hoping to sugarcoat the neglect.
And then there's the pen pal etiquette. Are we supposed to write back immediately or match their level of sporadic communication? It's like a game of "Guess Who?" but with letters. You try to decipher their hints, decode their cryptic messages, and figure out if they've ghosted you or simply have an extreme case of procrastination.
At this rate, I'm half-expecting my pen pal to send a letter by carrier pigeon apologizing for the delayed responses, blaming it on a snail mail traffic jam. But hey, who needs consistency when you have the thrill of pen pal roulette?
