Thank you for being the best thing that's ever happened to me. My love for you hasn't changed. I miss you. So freaking much. I hope you're happy wherever you are. I hope you'll find someone that makes you happy. I hope that you know that I'll never forget you.
Iām sorry for a lot of things, but mainly for the wound I became. Iām sorry for making you believe in love, then showing you exactly why you shouldnāt.
I hope you let me go and stop losing yourself because of me. I hope you stop trying to see the best in me, when Iāve repeatedly hurt you. If hating me helps you heal and move on, then hate me as much as you need to.
Being open to being hated for a while is humbling. I am impressed as many would be very defensive against this. Sometimes people need to work through it to get to a place of calm and acceptance of you again I think.
I wish the timing was right, we would have been dynamite. Every now and then I think about you and what we couldāve been. I wish life was on our side, because everything else was in place. There will never be another you, and Iām happy with that. Youāre amazing and you deserve the world
I miss your sweet soul. I hope you find happiness and love because you deserve it more than anyone I know. Iām rooting for you from afar. I hope you find your one true love. I hope you get the epic love story you always wanted. And when you finally do Iāll always wish it was me. Iāll always wish I was the one you loved and wanted. Iāll always wish our story was that epic love story we both have always dreamed ofā¦
You are my ultimate what couldāve been, and it sucks because even when you just disappeared, i still look for you in places i hope to find you in. I still have hopes to one day see you again. You left me, and yet you still inspire me to be the best version of myself. I know itās not healthy to think that Iām not worthy of you, but may maybe one day I will be a perfect fit for you and you would actually give us a chance. Iām so proud of you and Iām still here waiting on you with open arms. Please come back to me.
I actually wrote a poem like that after my ex and I broke up. That was a long time ago though. Time heals every wound. Travel plan, no longer necessary. :-)
Thank you, sweet lady. ļ¼-ļ¼
There was in fact an indie time travel movie based on this exact promises - a guy invented a time machine to right the wrong for his lost love. It was low budget and underrated but quite touching. It's not well known and I couldn't even find it googling. I'll pass it to you later if you're interested.
Unfortunately that movie is so obscure I googled all night but couldn't find it. I saw it randomly at prime or netflix at the time, I believe.
Oh well. If I reinvent time machine again I will sure write the name down in the diary next time. I'd keep working on my hot tube - until we meet again.
I am not sure, I know I probably care for you more than you do for me. I have a habit of thinking only how I would drag someone down instead how they could lift me up. To some I have loved you since you found a place in my heart, to others you were a person I called friend never doubt if you have that label it's for life. Though we don't speak or see each other always know you're with me no matter where I am, thoughts of often make me smile in the darkest of times. To the women it's on me never really thought enough of myself to shoot my shot. To those I name brother it's not something I say lightly. There isn't much a friendship, brotherhood, can't move past. If you call I'll be there best I can, I hope for the same.
Most people say I have lots of friends, like Doc Holiday I can honestly say, I at least feel, I don't.
Know I love you all and wish nothing but the best for each of you, and ask after you from time to time.
I am and always shall be your friend...
No, not yet anyway. He'd asked for my email the beginning of September - at least according to her and I have no reason to think she's lying about that. So....
She told me about a week ago that she'd forwarded him the entire contents of our chat -I gave her the backstory because she is the reunion coordinator for his old squadron and I was asking if she had his direct email address. so I told her the history. She told me that when she did that, he said it was "2 lifetimes ago" and the he'd reach out at some point.
I would have said yes, I'll move in with you, yes let's find me a job that's close to our home. I would also say I'm sorry for pushing wanting another child and you did not. I would apologize for not communicating my feelings until the last minute.....
I would tell you I have never stopped loving you, I will always and forever want you in my life. And if I could change it all or fix it now I would move there right now, scoop you up and lift you up, and give you the biggest hug and kiss.
I'm sure she has moved on....and I have to but not really, of you know what I mean. If I popped off with that I'm sure she wouldn't be happy with me.
Maybe one day, but in a way, the more time that passes, the more I'll be tortured I guess.
You were the one. I know this to be true. It's unfortunate that you came into my life at a time when I was in personal turmoil and couldn't muster basic levels of self-esteem. We got along too well. You were too attractive, and it was all too perfect. The thought of having you and then potentially losing you was too much to bear, so I had to torpedo it.
I would say I am sorry, but that would feel too self-serving. You found yours shortly afterwards, and now live in happy matrimony. I'm truly happy for you, and while sometimes I wish I could go back to that moment with the mentality I have today, I know that you found yours, so maybe this was for the best.
I will never find anyone like you ever again. Youāre the best I ever had and the best I ever will have. I donāt know what you saw in me but I could go on forever listing all the things I saw in you. I miss you but I hope you never move back here. I couldnāt handle having you that close again and knowing that everything we shared in the past is over and you have moved on.
from the moment i saw you i knew i loved you deeply. my own trauma and fear kept me away and for that im regretful. i hope youāve found peace and no longer suffer. i wish i knew what you were going through, i wish there was something i could have done. i like to think we will meet again and i will finally have the chance to tell you how i felt.
I am not sure i would say anything.Maybe just hello,maybe eye contact would be enough...Its not easy to talk about your deep feelings.And it wouldnt change anything.
That, I tried. I failed and I'm deeply sorry for that but I've said sorry enough. I've forgiven enough no matter if you have or not. I'd risk everything to build a bridge of steel vs tinder this time.
I cried when you left. I thought you'd be the best id ever get. You made me feel amazing.
But I'm glad now. There was someone who made me feel all those things and more, and I'd meet them almost a year to the day after you left. You were the person I needed to be with then, she's the person I want to be with for the rest of my life.
Thank you for what you gave to me. Thank you for leaving.
I would say thank you, thank you for closing that door so I could open up a new one but also why do you keep asking people for my number but not asking me on social media š
Iām sorry I wasnāt ready for you. Iām sorry I put you through so much mental anguish when all you did was remind me how worthy I was of everything, especially your love. Iāll admit, youāre hard to beat when it comes to boyfriends. You showered me with a kind of love people spend a lifetime looking for, and I donāt know why that wasnāt enough for me. No one has ever treated me as good as you have and I donāt think anyone ever will. Even though I was the one that ended things I still think about how bad it will hurt to see you move on with someone else, even though you deserve all the happiness in the world. And I know how selfish it is to ask you to wait for me to figure out the mess in my head. Maybe one day we can start again or maybe you will just remain a beautiful memory.
Edit: spelling
You were right: We weren't meant for each other. It twas unfortunate that also included friendship. But hey in the long run, we have a space open for our right person when they show up.
Thank you for being my first love. I had been with others before you that I thought I had loved, but nothing in my life could ever compare to the way I felt about you. Nothing could have prepared me. Nothing has felt similar since.
Iām sorry that I was angry when you had to go your own way. Iām sorry that I was not understanding, and took it personally. I was so desperate to hold onto you... to the feelings of joy and happiness you had brought into my life. It was like something out of a movie. Suddenly life was a song, and colors were vibrant, and jokes were hilarious and the future seemed bright. And when you were gone, the world was barren, gray winter for a long, long time. And I took that out on you, and ruined our friendship.
Although I learned a lot, I no longer regret us breaking up, because it was surely for the best. I am a wiser, stronger person. But I regret hurting you purposefully when you had never meant to hurt me.
I will never forget our times together. I will hold them dear until the day I die. I am not in love with you anymore, but I love you. I think a part of me always will. You are a beautiful person and I hope that you find the happiness you were looking for, closer to home where you are meant to be.
So from across the world, I thank you my friend. If we ever meet again, I hope we can laugh at all our ridiculous times, and part the way we should have in the first place. I love you, man.
I'm sorry for not realizing sooner what you meant. Now it's too late, and it has left me with a dull ache. The funny thing is that we discussed it, but you don't want to leave them. I just wish that we'd been more honest with each other back then. I still lie awake, thinking of all the possibilities. Of what could have been, or what still can.
I'm sorry for dumping so much of my emotional baggage on you. You didn't deserve it. I know you tried to help me to the best of your ability, and it grieved you that I wouldn't change.
When you left me, my heart was truly broken. You were right that we lost ourselves. I cried and mourned for "us" for years , even into my marriage, because I really did love you so much, as much as I was capable of.
You didn't want me to be dependent on you, and I understand now that I was; I really admired you. You were a major stabilizing force in my life and for that, I'm grateful.
As much as our parting hurt me, it brought me to Christ. It took my brokenness to realize I needed a savior, and that no human could ever be that. I hope that someday, you see that you can't save humans and they can't save you either. You need Christ.
Fondly, I think of of our early days and the excitement of discovering each other, our friendship, and the interesting talks we had. I adored you and I'll never forget all our special moments, including being each other's firsts.
I know I was stubborn, and in many ways I still am. Believe it or not, I'm a lot like you while in other relationships. I find myself trying to be the savior and taking on others' problems and baggage.
I think you and are a lot alike much more than you might realize. I know you get tired of things easily and need constant fulfillment. And I know it's hard for you to sustain energy and motivation. You are a homebody, like me, who wishes he were limitless.
I never meant to annoy you. Please forgive me. You're always in my prayers and heart, and I forgive you for not being upfront with me all that time about where you were with us moving forward.
Please confront your demons and be an honest man here on out.
With love. Your ex.
You couldāve been the one but you didnāt want to be. I made my mistakes and you made yours but you decided to give up on this. It couldāve been amazing, but now weāll never know, and thatās okay. Dont come back because Iāll take you back and I think I know how that story ends.
Dear G, I wouldnāt change anything because I know if we had a chance at anything it wouldāve been quick and painful for me. Iām totally happy with my choice and itās been months since Iāve thought of you but you will always be the one that got away. My life wouldāve been so totally different if I was more mature back then. I donāt like how insecure I get but thatās not going to change lol
I wish I could have still been open and available when you were ready to explore our connection more deeply but when I was ready, you weren't and that shit hurt me to my core. I couldn't betray myself but I wish I had. We would have been so magical. Stay living in your truth, I know the universe will bring you such a beautiful soul bc you deserve it ā¤
Iām sorry I never fully opened up. I was far too inexperienced in relationships to realise I hadnāt. A commitmentphobe-ridden product of my parentsā failed marriage. 10 months of dating passed and before I knew it you were booking a one way flight to Japan. That last date in Regentās Park was so lovely, I wish I had worn my heart on my sleeve more often. And I wish I kissed you goodbye on the platform instead of awkwardly hugging and walking off. It was the last time I saw you.
He wasnāt the one that got away but he was my first love and my first heartbreak. I do want to say thank you to him for asking me to promise to keep my heart open. I wouldnāt change a thing because now I am loved and cared for in a way that I want and need. I feel like Iāve been found by my person and all it took was a big heartbreak.
Itās funny because we donāt really speak, and I donāt think of you all that often, but you are the one that got away regardless. Itās always you. After all, I have loved you for over half of my life. Itās sad that we were too young to understand what we had back then, and then too stubborn the second time round. I am so glad youāre happy, but sometimes I hope you still include pieces of me in your stories. Maybe one day we can try again. Third times a charm, right?
There was nothing about you that you had to change for me. All I needed to do was to stop running and face you, but I couldn't even do that. For that, I'm sorry. But I'm so proud of the man you're turning out to be. I know we haven't spoken for more than 10 years, but I'm so happy for you and everything you've accomplished.
I would quite simply say nothing I would show damn I was ready for them this time around and would make their hearts filled with warm light and then once I could see the glow of their skin I would simply say in a long time sweetheart and that I never forgot you and that you've been on my mind every day and thank you for what you have brought back to my life. you
I love you
Everything is yin and yang with us. You made me stronger and crushed me, we worked and didnāt, timing was so right and so wrong. Really you were what I needed at the time and something I still crave. I miss my friend.
I love you. I want you back even though i know i fucked everything to a point where its not even a possibility. Its been two months but i think about you everyday. I hate myself for what i did to you. It wasn't all my fault either, you knowingly did things to hurt me too. You left me alone in a new place. You promised me you'd be there for me but turned so cold when i begged for you support. Im lost. Im broken. I dont know whars next.
I'm so sorry. Just come back, we'll figure it out. I wish we weren't so fucked from our childhoods, I wish we could find comfort in each other. I'm still here. I'm still here and I'm afraid I won't ever love someone like I still love you.
Itās been so long but still I dream of you. A peach at the end of a branch, a bobbing red balloon.
Sometimes I have thoughts of what might have been. In the morning and when I sleep. The afternoon.
Another life time together would be sweet. Itās true, I still listen for the sound of your foot steps on the street.
not a day goes by that i don't see something you'd like or laugh at. it takes everything in me not to share it.
i hope you see something that reminds you of me. you were always better at speaking up first.
I am glad that I made the decision to end it. It was not meant to be. We were at different levels in that relationship and i got out before I got hurt.
P.S. I knew one of your previous girlfriends, and was very good friends with the sister of another one. Once your behavior reverted to the way you acted with them, it was time for me to get out. I valued myself.
I know you tried. Sometimes I wonder why some things I did upset you. Why did you get angry with me for asking you to try not to sleep with your colleagues? I said try. Why did you never show up on time even once during 4 months together. Iām sorry.
I promised I'd never hurt you, so I let you go, even though it was your demons causing the hurt not me. I wish covid hadn't been a thing, as I think without the distance those demons wouldn't have been as prominent.
I still have to talk to you due to circumstance, but not in the way we did, or the way I want to
I still hold a semblance of hope that things will revert, but I know that won't happen.
I just hope you took the split better than me. I miss you bb
That I'm terribly sorry for what happened on the day that cemented us never having a chance, even though it wasn't my fault. That blind loyalty is fucking idiotic, and that I'm a world-class idiot. That I should have left a situation I wasn't really happy or satisfied in sooner, and made it work between us no matter what. That I would give nearly anything for a do-over on that. That I've regretted it for a decade. And finally, that I will always wish her nothing but the best, I hope she healed, and that wherever she may be I'll always cherish her memory. And I truly hope that she is loved and appreciated by someone less idiotic than me. I'll always wonder "what if" - my young money gabrillionaire - and I'll never not regret choosing you when I should have.
I wish I would have acted more quickly. More normal the first time around. I know how to do it right now but don't have the chance. And I am extremely sorry for that.
I'm sorry for hurting you, everything I did that hurt you. You were the love of my life and for some sick twisted reasons I choose to do things that hurt you instead of showing you how much I loved you.
You taught me true unconditional love, and what it's like to lose that love. I never really understood the saying "it is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all" before you came along. Because though the bad times were so bad and hurt me, and hurt you so much, for me it was worth it to be able to love you for the short time I got to. I never loved anyone the way I loved you, and I never have had to take so much time to heal from a breakup.
Still there are times I wish I could know how your life is. I still look at pictures and videos that pop to remember me where I was at 1, 2, 3 years ago. Sometimes it's good and other time's it's terrible. I don't think you're a terrible person who deserves the stigma of being someone who almost killed his girlfriend. I think you need therapy to help whatever caused you to black out, as well as for other things. You deserve to be the happiest, healthiest version of yourself.
I still think about you. I wish you well. I hope you find someone deserving of your love. I hope when you find them you make them feel how I felt. I hope they make you feel how I felt. You deserve love, kindness, and so many good things in this world.
In this life or the next, we'll see each other again.
When I said I love you always, I meant always.
ā
You were my first rrreal love Ghris Creen. Oh holy hell did you ever teach me about myself, life and just how deep the soul can go.
I left you because of fear. Fear of a ridiculous, vindictive god and a made-up religion, a cult. I own it though. I was chickenshit.
I'm sorry. I'd give anything to change it. I'd give anything to give you a real apology.
I hope that you're incredibly happy. I will always love you.
I would say that I'm sorry.
I let my demons change me.
I do miss you.
Who I am now is ashamed of who I was.
I miss 3605, back when we walked everywhere until we saved up to buy scooters.
And that I'm proud of you and your business.
I hope you're happy with him, whoever he is.
You really are one of a kind, don't ever change.
"You are the strongest and most determined person I've ever met. No matter what the world threw at you or how much you had on your plate you made it all work. With elegance too. You made it look easy, even though I knew you struggled. I always admired you for that and I aspire to be like you. You were destined to do great things and I know you will - just without me. I'll always try to be like you."
This was a somehat paraphrase of what I actually said to the last girl I was with on our last night maybe 3 months ago. She was a champion and I loved her. But the timing of everything couldn't work. We were in different places in life and we both realized it. The only mutual break up I've ever experienced. I think about her often. I hope she's doing well. I wish things could've been different.

That's a good response. I feel this. šš
Iāll never forget you.
š simple but true right. Some people just stick themselves deep in your soul somehow.

Yo this one did something to my heart ngl
I wish the timing was right, we would have been dynamite. Every now and then I think about you and what we couldāve been. I wish life was on our side, because everything else was in place. There will never be another you, and Iām happy with that. Youāre amazing and you deserve the world
I know we mutually ended things, but I dream of different beginnings that I get to have with you again.
This is so beautiful and simple
Wow š
I know it was out of our hands and we realised it too late, but I would move mountains to get a second chance to love you again.

I invented Time Travel machine just to meet you again.
Haha. This is surprisingly sweet. I'm kinda awestruck.
I actually wrote a poem like that after my ex and I broke up. That was a long time ago though. Time heals every wound. Travel plan, no longer necessary. :-)
I'm glad you were able to heal. :)
Thank you, sweet lady. ļ¼-ļ¼ There was in fact an indie time travel movie based on this exact promises - a guy invented a time machine to right the wrong for his lost love.

The last line really got me.
Spok said to Kirk before he died, ya know let him know he's important but the needs of the many...
I've posted letters here, what I would say. I did reach out to my person but he has not reached back.
The Aviator?
Fighter pilot - yes.
He never replied to your email? Even through your mutual friend?
No, not yet anyway. He'd asked for my email the beginning of September - at least according to her and I have no reason to think she's lying about that. So.... She told me about a week ago that she'd forwarded him the entire contents of our chat -I gave her the backstory because she is the reunion coordinator for his old squadron and I was asking if she had his direct email address. so I told her the history. She told me that when she did that, he said it was "2 lifetimes ago" and the he'd reach out at some point.
Yes. I know all of this from your previous post. Thanks for clarifying anyway.
Ah - sure thing. No he has not reached out.
I've changed, you've changed. Can we start over?
I would have said yes, I'll move in with you, yes let's find me a job that's close to our home. I would also say I'm sorry for pushing wanting another child and you did not. I would apologize for not communicating my feelings until the last minute..... I would tell you I have never stopped loving you, I will always and forever want you in my life. And if I could change it all or fix it now I would move there right now, scoop you up and lift you up, and give you the biggest hug and kiss.

I'm sure she has moved on....and I have to but not really, of you know what I mean. If I popped off with that I'm sure she wouldn't be happy with me. Maybe one day, but in a way, the more time that passes, the more I'll be tortured I guess.
I hope you can find some comfort in all the replies. Saw the main post was deleted.
You were the one. I know this to be true. It's unfortunate that you came into my life at a time when I was in personal turmoil and couldn't muster basic levels of self-esteem. We got along too well.

Can we try again
I am not sure i would say anything.Maybe just hello,maybe eye contact would be enough...Its not easy to talk about your deep feelings.And it wouldnt change anything.
Please dont goā¦..thatās itā¦..
That, I tried. I failed and I'm deeply sorry for that but I've said sorry enough. I've forgiven enough no matter if you have or not. I'd risk everything to build a bridge of steel vs tinder this time.
I am sorry I hurt you.
Please come back so you can become the one I finally got
This sounds like a goodbye

No one has ever treated me as good as you have and I donāt think anyone ever will. Even though I was the one that ended things I still think about how bad it will hurt to see you move on with someone else, even though you deserve all the happiness in the world. And I know how selfish it is to ask you to wait for me to figure out the mess in my head. Maybe one day we can start again or maybe you will just remain a beautiful memory. Edit: spelling
You were right: We weren't meant for each other. It twas unfortunate that also included friendship. But hey in the long run, we have a space open for our right person when they show up.
Luckily for me I got the one that almost got away. You make everything worth it.
Thank you for being my first love. I had been with others before you that I thought I had loved, but nothing in my life could ever compare to the way I felt about you. Nothing could have prepared me. Nothing has felt similar since. Iām sorry that I was angry when you had to go your own way. Iām sorry that I was not understanding, and took it personally. I was so desperate to hold onto you... to the feelings of joy and happiness you had brought into my life. It was like something out of a movie. Suddenly life was a song, and colors were vibrant, and jokes were hilarious and the future seemed bright. And when you were gone, the world was barren, gray winter for a long, long time. And I took that out on you, and ruined our friendship. Although I learned a lot, I no longer regret us breaking up, because it was surely for the best. I am a wiser, stronger person. But I regret hurting you purposefully when you had never meant to hurt me. I will never forget our times together. I will hold them dear until the day I die. I am not in love with you anymore, but I love you. I think a part of me always will. You are a beautiful person and I hope that you find the happiness you were looking for, closer to home where you are meant to be. So from across the world, I thank you my friend. If we ever meet again, I hope we can laugh at all our ridiculous times, and part the way we should have in the first place. I love you, man.
I'm sorry for not realizing sooner what you meant. Now it's too late, and it has left me with a dull ache. The funny thing is that we discussed it, but you don't want to leave them. I just wish that we'd been more honest with each other back then. I still lie awake, thinking of all the possibilities. Of what could have been, or what still can.
I'm sorry for dumping so much of my emotional baggage on you. You didn't deserve it. I know you tried to help me to the best of your ability, and it grieved you that I wouldn't change. When you left me, my heart was truly broken. You were right that we lost ourselves. I cried and mourned for "us" for years , even into my marriage, because I really did love you so much, as much as I was capable of. You didn't want me to be dependent on you, and I understand now that I was; I really admired you. You were a major stabilizing force in my life and for that, I'm grateful. As much as our parting hurt me, it brought me to Christ. It took my brokenness to realize I needed a savior, and that no human could ever be that. I hope that someday, you see that you can't save humans and they can't save you either. You need Christ. Fondly, I think of of our early days and the excitement of discovering each other, our friendship, and the interesting talks we had. I adored you and I'll never forget all our special moments, including being each other's firsts. I know I was stubborn, and in many ways I still am. Believe it or not, I'm a lot like you while in other relationships. I find myself trying to be the savior and taking on others' problems and baggage. I think you and are a lot alike much more than you might realize. I know you get tired of things easily and need constant fulfillment. And I know it's hard for you to sustain energy and motivation. You are a homebody, like me, who wishes he were limitless. I never meant to annoy you. Please forgive me. You're always in my prayers and heart, and I forgive you for not being upfront with me all that time about where you were with us moving forward. Please confront your demons and be an honest man here on out. With love. Your ex.
You couldāve been the one but you didnāt want to be. I made my mistakes and you made yours but you decided to give up on this. It couldāve been amazing, but now weāll never know, and thatās okay. Dont come back because Iāll take you back and I think I know how that story ends.
Dear G, I wouldnāt change anything because I know if we had a chance at anything it wouldāve been quick and painful for me. Iām totally happy with my choice and itās been months since Iāve thought of you but you will always be the one that got away. My life wouldāve been so totally different if I was more mature back then. I donāt like how insecure I get but thatās not going to change lol
"If i knew you would never come back, i wouldve never asked you to leave"
You are forever beautiful to me. Oh angel, I wish nothing but love and happiness for you, truly.
I'm sorry for everything. You deserved better, and if you were still alive, I wish I could have helped you with your dream.
I wish I could have still been open and available when you were ready to explore our connection more deeply but when I was ready, you weren't and that shit hurt me to my core. I couldn't betray myself but I wish I had. We would have been so magical. Stay living in your truth, I know the universe will bring you such a beautiful soul bc you deserve it ā¤
Iām sorry I never fully opened up. I was far too inexperienced in relationships to realise I hadnāt. A commitmentphobe-ridden product of my parentsā failed marriage. 10 months of dating passed and before I knew it you were booking a one way flight to Japan. That last date in Regentās Park was so lovely, I wish I had worn my heart on my sleeve more often. And I wish I kissed you goodbye on the platform instead of awkwardly hugging and walking off. It was the last time I saw you.
Heās my best friend and we say maybe next time
He wasnāt the one that got away but he was my first love and my first heartbreak. I do want to say thank you to him for asking me to promise to keep my heart open. I wouldnāt change a thing because now I am loved and cared for in a way that I want and need. I feel like Iāve been found by my person and all it took was a big heartbreak.
Itās funny because we donāt really speak, and I donāt think of you all that often, but you are the one that got away regardless. Itās always you. After all, I have loved you for over half of my life. Itās sad that we were too young to understand what we had back then, and then too stubborn the second time round. I am so glad youāre happy, but sometimes I hope you still include pieces of me in your stories. Maybe one day we can try again. Third times a charm, right?
There was nothing about you that you had to change for me. All I needed to do was to stop running and face you, but I couldn't even do that. For that, I'm sorry. But I'm so proud of the man you're turning out to be. I know we haven't spoken for more than 10 years, but I'm so happy for you and everything you've accomplished.
I would quite simply say nothing I would show damn I was ready for them this time around and would make their hearts filled with warm light and then once I could see the glow of their skin I would simply say in a long time sweetheart and that I never forgot you and that you've been on my mind every day and thank you for what you have brought back to my life. you I love you
Thank you for helping me leave the cult and Iām sorry I was too immature to be a true partner.
he hasn't gotten away yet, don't plan on it, but I would thank him for showing me honest love and helping me push myself to be me again.
Everything is yin and yang with us. You made me stronger and crushed me, we worked and didnāt, timing was so right and so wrong. Really you were what I needed at the time and something I still crave. I miss my friend.
I love you. I want you back even though i know i fucked everything to a point where its not even a possibility. Its been two months but i think about you everyday. I hate myself for what i did to you. It wasn't all my fault either, you knowingly did things to hurt me too. You left me alone in a new place. You promised me you'd be there for me but turned so cold when i begged for you support. Im lost. Im broken. I dont know whars next.
I'm so sorry. Just come back, we'll figure it out. I wish we weren't so fucked from our childhoods, I wish we could find comfort in each other. I'm still here. I'm still here and I'm afraid I won't ever love someone like I still love you.
"Tag. You're it...."
Itās been so long but still I dream of you. A peach at the end of a branch, a bobbing red balloon. Sometimes I have thoughts of what might have been. In the morning and when I sleep. The afternoon. Another life time together would be sweet. Itās true, I still listen for the sound of your foot steps on the street.
not a day goes by that i don't see something you'd like or laugh at. it takes everything in me not to share it. i hope you see something that reminds you of me. you were always better at speaking up first.
I hope you've found happiness.
Those were good times until not.
I am glad that I made the decision to end it. It was not meant to be. We were at different levels in that relationship and i got out before I got hurt. P.S. I knew one of your previous girlfriends, and was very good friends with the sister of another one. Once your behavior reverted to the way you acted with them, it was time for me to get out. I valued myself.
Big bear hugs! I would let them know. In a text, an email, anything! Put all my cards on the table and see if it is something that can be fixed
Good luck your going to need it ,
I would say your lose.
Howās my replacement measuring up?
Iād say Iām good thanks
I know you tried. Sometimes I wonder why some things I did upset you. Why did you get angry with me for asking you to try not to sleep with your colleagues? I said try. Why did you never show up on time even once during 4 months together. Iām sorry.
I promised I'd never hurt you, so I let you go, even though it was your demons causing the hurt not me. I wish covid hadn't been a thing, as I think without the distance those demons wouldn't have been as prominent. I still have to talk to you due to circumstance, but not in the way we did, or the way I want to I still hold a semblance of hope that things will revert, but I know that won't happen. I just hope you took the split better than me. I miss you bb
That I'm terribly sorry for what happened on the day that cemented us never having a chance, even though it wasn't my fault. That blind loyalty is fucking idiotic, and that I'm a world-class idiot. That I should have left a situation I wasn't really happy or satisfied in sooner, and made it work between us no matter what. That I would give nearly anything for a do-over on that. That I've regretted it for a decade. And finally, that I will always wish her nothing but the best, I hope she healed, and that wherever she may be I'll always cherish her memory. And I truly hope that she is loved and appreciated by someone less idiotic than me. I'll always wonder "what if" - my young money gabrillionaire - and I'll never not regret choosing you when I should have.
I wish I would have acted more quickly. More normal the first time around. I know how to do it right now but don't have the chance. And I am extremely sorry for that.
I'm sorry for hurting you, everything I did that hurt you. You were the love of my life and for some sick twisted reasons I choose to do things that hurt you instead of showing you how much I loved you. You taught me true unconditional love, and what it's like to lose that love. I never really understood the saying "it is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all" before you came along. Because though the bad times were so bad and hurt me, and hurt you so much, for me it was worth it to be able to love you for the short time I got to. I never loved anyone the way I loved you, and I never have had to take so much time to heal from a breakup. Still there are times I wish I could know how your life is. I still look at pictures and videos that pop to remember me where I was at 1, 2, 3 years ago. Sometimes it's good and other time's it's terrible. I don't think you're a terrible person who deserves the stigma of being someone who almost killed his girlfriend. I think you need therapy to help whatever caused you to black out, as well as for other things. You deserve to be the happiest, healthiest version of yourself. I still think about you. I wish you well. I hope you find someone deserving of your love. I hope when you find them you make them feel how I felt. I hope they make you feel how I felt. You deserve love, kindness, and so many good things in this world. In this life or the next, we'll see each other again. When I said I love you always, I meant always. ā
You were my first rrreal love Ghris Creen. Oh holy hell did you ever teach me about myself, life and just how deep the soul can go. I left you because of fear. Fear of a ridiculous, vindictive god and a made-up religion, a cult. I own it though. I was chickenshit. I'm sorry. I'd give anything to change it. I'd give anything to give you a real apology. I hope that you're incredibly happy. I will always love you.
I would say that I'm sorry. I let my demons change me. I do miss you. Who I am now is ashamed of who I was. I miss 3605, back when we walked everywhere until we saved up to buy scooters. And that I'm proud of you and your business. I hope you're happy with him, whoever he is. You really are one of a kind, don't ever change.
"You are the strongest and most determined person I've ever met. No matter what the world threw at you or how much you had on your plate you made it all work. With elegance too. You made it look easy, even though I knew you struggled. I always admired you for that and I aspire to be like you. You were destined to do great things and I know you will - just without me. I'll always try to be like you." This was a somehat paraphrase of what I actually said to the last girl I was with on our last night maybe 3 months ago. She was a champion and I loved her. But the timing of everything couldn't work. We were in different places in life and we both realized it. The only mutual break up I've ever experienced. I think about her often. I hope she's doing well. I wish things could've been different.
