Dear Isobel,
Okay, so I lied in that letter.
I didn't lie about the fact I really dislike Jacob Winters, or the fact he's really fucking hairy, because I swear to God if you saw him shirtless you'd mistake him for a bear.
I did lie about the fact he's a douchebag and he's a player and all that. He's had two girlfriends and he's been pretty good with them, and although it's kind of awkward, he doesn't seem to regret his time with them, and vice versa. So I do understand why you're all interested in him. And even if you guys don't work out, you'll always be a little smitten by him, because he's a pretty decent guy.
As your best friend, I couldn't lie to you. I have to be honest, because that's what I do.
I may have twisted the truth a little bit because I'm kind of in love with you. But I'm a bit of a coward and I haven't told you that, so I don't get to act like a territorial wolf.
Whatever happens, just know I have your back.
Love,
Joe.
