To my love

To the love of my life

To the man I'll always be grateful I knew,

I've thought about writing this for a long time. I'm not writing it because I expect anything from you, and I'm not writing it to ask you to come back. I just wanted to say some things that have lived in my heart for a long time.

Thank you for the memories we shared. The good and the bad. As strange as it may sound, I'm grateful for all of it because it was part of a chapter of my life that changed me. To me, what we had was beautiful. It wasn't perfect, but it was real, and it meant more to me than I ever knew how to say.

One of the things I'll always remember is how safe I felt when you were near. That feeling was rare for me, and I never took it for granted. And that day in your truck, when I said "forever," I meant every single word. I wasn't pretending or caught up in the moment. I truly believed it with all my heart.

You were never "nothing" to me. You were everything to me.

I'm sorry for the way I treated you. Looking back, I can finally admit that I let my fears, my paranoia, and my addiction take over who I was. They clouded my judgment until I couldn't tell what was real anymore. I believed things about you that I see now weren't true, and I know I hurt you because of that. For that, I am deeply sorry.

At the same time, I also know there were things you said and did that hurt me too. I'm not bringing them up to place blame. I simply want you to know that I forgive you. We were both imperfect people trying to navigate something bigger than ourselves.

I'm not asking you to forgive me, and I'm not trying to win you back. I just wanted to acknowledge my part. I was a problem in ways I couldn't see then, and I own that now.

I still miss you. I think about you more often than you'd probably ever imagine. I hope life has been kind to you. I hope you're happy. I hope you're chasing your dreams because I've always believed you're incredibly smart and capable of accomplishing anything you decide to do. I have no doubt you'll go far.

As for me, I'm still trying to understand why accepting love has always been so hard. It's hard for me to believe that someone truly loves me. Somewhere along the way I became afraid of it, and too often I ended up hurting the people I loved the most. That's something I'm still working to heal.

Maybe one day, somewhere down the road, we'll unexpectedly cross paths. If that ever happens, I hope there won't be anger between us. Maybe I'll get a hug. I think that would mean a lot to me. It's awful how much we've been there to become strangers again. It's sad. I guess we didn't have that love that everyone spends there whole lives looking for after all.

No matter where life takes us, thank you for the time we shared. Thank you for the memories. Thank you for loving me in the moments you did.

I sincerely hope your life is full of happiness, peace, and everything you've ever wanted.

Take care of yourself.

Love Always...

To the love of my life,

I owe you an apology... Im sorry. So very sorry.

Looking back, I can see how much our relationship became consumed by toxicity, and I know that I played a big part in that. I let my fears, insecurities, and paranoia take over, and instead of dealing with them in a healthy way, I took it out on you. For that, I am truly sorry.

I know neither of us was perfect. We both made mistakes, and we both hurt each other in ways that can't be undone. But I want you to know that I recognize my own faults, and I take responsibility for them.

You ended up doing the very thing I always feared... you didn't choose me. I won't pretend that it doesn't still hurt, because it does. It hurts more than I can put into words. But as painful as it is, I understand. I understand that sometimes love isn't enough to overcome everything we've been through.

I also want you to know that walking away was never easy for me. In fact, it was the hardest thing I've ever done. I was in a very dark place mentally, and I truly believed that leaving was the only way to save us both from causing each other even more pain. I never walked away because I stopped loving you. I walked away because I loved you, and because I knew we couldn't keep hurting each other the way we were. It was killing me.

A part of me hoped that by stepping away, you would show me that you cared, that you loved me too, and that you would choose us. When that didn't happen, it broke my heart in ways I'm still trying to heal from. But even through that pain, I've come to understand that sometimes people love each other and still can't find their way back to one another. I guess there was just to much fog to see one another properly...

No matter what happened between us, I will always love you. A part of my heart will always belong to you. I don't say that to change your mind or to ask for another chance. I say it because it's the truth.

I also want you to know that you're not like most men. You've always been so much more than that to me. You have a depth, a heart, and a way of loving that is rare. Despite everything we've been through, I've never stopped believing that you're an incredible person. That's one of the reasons loving you was so easy, and why letting go has been so hard.

I genuinely hope life gives you happiness, peace, and everything you've ever wanted. You deserve that, and I will always wish the very best for you.

If you are ever down and out, or if you ever need help in any kind of way, you know how to find me and get in touch with me. I would be there. I will always be there. My heart couldn't not be there if you needed me.

Thank you for the love we shared, for the memories, and for the person our relationship helped me become.

With love,

Always

I guess there was just to much fog to see one another properly...

No matter what happened between us, I will always love you. A part of my heart will always belong to you. I don't say that to change your mind or to ask for another chance. I say it because it's the truth.

I also want you to know that you're not like most men. You've always been so much more than that to me. You have a depth, a heart, and a way of loving that is rare. Despite everything we've been through, I've never stopped believing that you're an incredible person. That's one of the reasons loving you was so easy, and why letting go has been so hard.

I genuinely hope life gives you happiness, peace, and everything you've ever wanted. You deserve that, and I will always wish the very best for you.

If you are ever down and out, or if you ever need help in any kind of way, you know how to find me and get in touch with me. I would be there. I will always be there. My heart couldn't not be there if you needed me.

Thank you for the love we shared, for the memories, and for the person our relationship helped me become.

With love,

Always

To the love of my life,

I owe you an apology... Im sorry. So very sorry.

Looking back, I can see how much our relationship became consumed by toxicity, and I know that I played a big part in that. I let my fears, insecurities, and paranoia take over, and instead of dealing with them in a healthy way, I took it out on you. For that, I am truly sorry.

I know neither of us was perfect. We both made mistakes, and we both hurt each other in ways that can't be undone. But I want you to know that I recognize my own faults, and I take responsibility for them.

You ended up doing the very thing I always feared... you didn't choose me. I won't pretend that it doesn't still hurt, because it does. It hurts more than I can put into words. But as painful as it is, I understand. I understand that sometimes love isn't enough to overcome everything we've been through.

I also want you to know that walking away was never easy for me. In fact, it was the hardest thing I've ever done. I was in a very dark place mentally, and I truly believed that leaving was the only way to save us both from causing each other even more pain. I never walked away because I stopped loving you. I walked away because I loved you, and because I knew we couldn't keep hurting each other the way we were. It was killing me.

A part of me hoped that by stepping away, you would show me that you cared, that you loved me too, and that you would choose us. When that didn't happen, it broke my heart in ways I'm still trying to heal from. But even through that pain, I've come to understand that sometimes people love each other and still can't find their way back to one another. I guess there was just to much fog to see one another properly...

No matter what happened between us, I will always love you. A part of my heart will always belong to you. I don't say that to change your mind or to ask for another chance. I say it because it's the truth.
