The Breakup
This note was found in the lobby of an abandoned Catskill Mountains hotel in August of 2019.
Josh, I will come back to you under conditions.
- You go to REHAB.
- You will never ever call me a cunt, bitch, or tell me to shut up ever again.
- You will never ever raise your hand or almost hit me ever again.
Josh, just drop my stuff off at my mom’s. I will not be able to be found. I’ll be in a hospital before you find this. You made me feel unwanted. And treated me like your ex. I’m sorry to disappoint but I’m not your ex-bitch. I am now but I wasn’t when you first picked me up. I get it I’m fat and ugly so you got rid of me. I also get it that you got rid of me so you wouldn’t have to pay for anything for me. Don’t worry about me. I am getting mental help before I hurt myself. All I ever thought of was you. You, you, you. Every waking moment how to please you is all I thought about. Tell your mom I love her and that she might have been tough but she was a sweetheart. I will get the money I owed her to her. Come hell or high water. Tell Wyatt he’s a good boy and never
Love forever and always,
Ary

WOW!! so much in this note. What a find! When I started reading it I thought it was a kids note by the handwriting, then the first mention was of rehab! The whole thing is EPIC

Thank you! I felt like it deserved a bigger audience so I immediately mailed it to Found Magazine.

Wow. What an incredible letter you found Tom! I wonder if Josh ever actually read this.

I wonder that myself, Han! I also wonder when the letter was written (there was no date on it), and what happened to those who were mentioned in the letter. Too many unanswered questions…

This note is so fascinating to me. The writing wasn’t that legible but the content is just alarming. I’m just wondering about the mind of the writer when writing this.

Despite what Ary passed through, she was able to express herself that she I not a cunt or a birth which Josh want of her. She’s still a loving person but Josh didn’t get to read this intriguing note. Tom, you’ve found something worth sharing!
Sasha
Truth really hearts. She just told it as it is, as they say it’s too little too late I guess.

Relationships suck this days.. I guess she was been maltreated by the dude and she had to bolt…so sad
Oyeyipo Oladele
Whaooo, this letter is well detailed to express the writers mind. This show she has been treated with pains. Nice work you have done by picking this.

This must have been written by a very troubled person. I hope all went well for them.
Patricia
I see a story of a heartbreak. Great find Thomas!
Oliver
I feel sad for Ary. I sure hope she’s oksy wherever she is today.
Daphne
This is a really moving note. It’s sad when love doesn’t work out.
Maury Cheskes
Really sad sentiments. I hope the writer of these notes found help and was able to rehabilitate. Sometimes pouring all your emotions into writing can be a healing process in itself.

This is very heartbreaking to read all those notes. I do hope that she will also find her own peace in her life, and that she finds her own happiness as well.
