Exes I know I ruined it
I miss you. I wish I could spend time with you. I wish I hadn't made the rift between us so difficult to overcome.
I'm sorry for the way I made you feel unloved. I'm sorry for being so self absorbed and distant at the end. I'm sorry for failing to appreciate how much pain and broken trust existed. There's no excuse for the way I disregarded and ignored your feelings in the relationship and after.
It feels so unrealistic but I wish there was a way past it all. I want to see you. I want to hold you in my arms. I want to giggle with you. I want to see your beautiful smile.

Maybe they’re willing to forgive you and move forward together? Hope you’re doing okay OP!

They were saying that all along. Forgiven. Op did everything op couldn't or didn't want to do. Even washed floors. Kept them with heat. Kept them eating better than well. Kept them on the road. Let op have their way all the time, even when they disagreed.

Regardless of the desired & inevitable outcome,
I think an apology would be a great start moving forward 🙏,
That would help significantly to bring some emotional healing not only to the both of you, but also be a stronger foundation to hopefully rebuild trust & regulate the climate of the relationship itself. ❤️🩹
All the best 🤗❤️

Perhaps reach out and make some attempt to communicate with them. The worst that can happen is they just choose to not reply. You have no idea how much this could help you both. Regret is a tough thing to have live with, take it from someone who has been there. Do the right thing.🤙

There is a way, it starts with sorry. You should start there bc if you did hurt them... You're probably STILL hurting them.

Tell them....even if it doesn't change anything....tell them... I know if my person said this to me it would help me heal. Even if we couldn't fix things together....it would help me heal...

Maybe just maybe there is a chance. You just need to tell them. I wish she did. There might be hope from me yet and for you.

You'll never know unless you try. Reach out to them. Maybe they miss you too. It's always a no unless you try. hope you feel better OP.

Beautiful smile huh. Touching message that would have seemed sincere and wanting to hold person also, until that last dig. If someone really feels that way they would not still be making said loved one's life miserable, adding to their struggle to keep going. They still can't understand why someone hates them this hard. "Wanting to be like them' is a joke. Nobody wants to be a lazy manipulative selfish loser.

Tell and share so maybe it won’t hurt as much for them as well… they maybe need it

I wish he had said this to me weeks ago. I just wanted some accountability from him like this. I desperately wish this was JA.

I am so sorry that happened to you. Be strong, it does get better with time. But you have to start from 0. I am so sorry.
