I know you were speaking from a place of deep pain and I don’t blame you for it. I’ve been there myself, as you well know. That’s not who I am, not who either of us want to be. We loved deeply and the loss tore us apart so we tore each other apart to try and survive the intense wounds we both had. You’ll always have a special place in my heart. And don’t worry, I’ll respect your clearly stated boundaries… if you need to say anything, you know how to reach me.

Edit: Please don’t assume I’m your person. She’ll know for sure after reading my previous post.

You can call me a monster if it helps, tear me down if it helps you heal. Maybe some days you truly believe it, and I probably deserve some of your rage. I know I made mistakes I'll regret for the rest of my life, and I can admit that. I know I failed you in ways that deeply hurt you. But I also know I loved you... truly.

I don't hate you. I think we loved each other deeply and brought out the best and worst in each other, and somewhere along the line the pain became louder than the love.

I think I'm mostly past the angry part, and I don't blame you for still being there. I really hope one day we both heal enough to remember the beautiful parts without needing to tear down the other person just to survive the loss. I know I screwed up that part myself recently and I'm truly sorry.

I'm just so damn sad this is what’s become of us.
