The following is an op-ed written by your gig line.
We've been friends for a lot of years now and have gone through thick and thin. You've always been there for me through tough times, and I've always been there to make you look good and stand out amongst your peers. When you really think about it, we're basically brothers.
Which is why it's so hard for me to say this right now. I'm so worried about how you'll react and what you might say. But I've been hiding these feelings I've had for a long time and just hoped you would eventually pick up on the signals. Instead, you've been oblivious, and I need to just get this off my chest.
