Hello, Wifi.
I have to be honest, I hoped that it would never have to come to this. I had always thought that somewhere along the lines we’d be able to establish some sort of steady, long-term connection. But we never could. You are always hot and cold. At times it’s like a rush and everything is coming so fast and it’s all well and good. But then there are times when it almost feels like you’re not even there.
Remember how much fun things were in the beginning of the year? Watching Netflix on Friday’s would be an affair that would take all night into the morning. We would enjoy ourselves for a few hours rest and enjoy ourselves some more. Now it only takes a few minutes before you call it quits. I have needs too.
Countless times I’ve called upon you and you act like you don’t know me. Asking my name and password; after all that we’ve been through together you still can’t remember? it’s a name that you gave me!
I try to draw closer and closer to you and for a while it works. It’s just like old times and we’re all happy. But the second I try to separate by even just a step, you get all crazy and try to abandon me again and I’m getting sick of it, I just can’t do it anymore.
You say that you’re going to get better and I know you’ve tried. All the maintenance updates you send me really let me know that you’re trying to improve, but it just isn’t good enough. I’ve talked around and I’ve come to the conclusion that we need to take a break. I’ll still be waiting for you, but in the meantime I’m going to be with 4G or with a network that’s much more reliable. Please. Get better. For me.
Forever waiting,
