I Drink in the Sadness of Everything

I am so sorry that I hurt us so badly. I am sorry that I didn't try to work things out. I am sorry that I didn't communicate. I loved you. I might even love you more now. I am sometimes filled with grief and can't seem to let go of it. I don't want to let go of it. I sit and drink in the sadness of everything. I wish we could be friends again. I miss talking with you, it doesn't seem like we ever run out of things to say. I took you for granted, and you took me for granted. I am so sorry.

Next Time, Just Think

I'm sorry that after we got the car unstuck I said "Next time, just think" as you pulled away. It sounded so horrible, and I thought about it for hours after you left. I totally understand why you felt hurt.

Honestly, truly, I was trying to say, "Next time, just think about which turning direction makes more sense." I wish I'd been more forceful in saying that.

That I Can't Take You Away

My darling... I'm sorry that I can't take you away from your situation. I would, if I could. I'd happily share my home with you, but I know you won't shirk your responsibility to stay where you are and do what no one else in your family will do. I admire your courage and dedication, but it kills me to see you have to suffer because you are so responsible and caring. If only I were rich, I could pay someone to take over those duties for you and relieve you of most of your burden. Then you could live with me! I would do my best to make you happy, sweetheart. I would not ask you to totally abandon your responsibility to them, but you should not have to shoulder all of it, by yourself. You are the best human being I know, and you deserve help in this. I wish I had some way to give it to you. Until I can, please know that I love you more than I have ever loved any woman, before, and I will be here for you, to give you love and support and help you in any way I can. I love you so much! I'm sorry that I cannot give you the help you need most, right now.

I Want You to Know I Am Trying

i am sorry that i can't concentrate on anything, that i am so moody and needy and complain so much.

i am sorry that i take my work so seriously and that i don't make enough time to clean the house, to cook with you, and to have fun and just get drunk with you.

i am sorry that i don't spend enough time with my family, that i ignore all the things i am supposed to do--i am totally overwhelmed and so i don't want to do anything anymore.

but i want you to know i am trying, i am done with all this negativity and i will try to do something SMALL, every day, that is fun, and consider it the best investment! i can be no one to anyone if i am dead.

I'm Sorry I Wasn't Upfront

I'm sorry I wasn't upfront with you in the beginning. When you came to see me, I could read the disappointment on your face. I wanted to kiss you, hold you, feel your hands on me so bad! I had dreamed about that day for over a year. You were too repulsed to even look at me. You were kind and indulged me with a few hugs and held my hand. I was crushed when you left and never called again.

I'm sorry I let myself believe it would be different.

Sorry I Hit Your Car

To ??? -

I'm sorry I hit your car in a parking lot. I was backing out, and hit your bumper. I don't know how hard I hit it, but I've got some pretty good scratches on my bumper. I should have left a note, or my card, or something, but I was in a hurry and cranky and being incredibly selfish. I hope I didn't do too much damage, and that it didn't cost you too much to repair.

I'm sorry I didn't ask you out and that I might never ask you, or anyone, out again.

I'm sorry that I have removed someone who understands, someone who would make you laugh, someone who would cook for you, someone who read aloud to you at night, someone who leave you wonderful notes, someone who make a perfect father and husband and lover, from the realm of possibility just because a defeatist pessimism convinced me that it wouldn't work out. I'm sorry that I won't ask you, or anyone, out and I'm sorry that I'm one less of the diminishing number of good people to grow old with.

I Will Never Cheat Again

Dear j,

I am sorry for cheating on you. I told you I did not kiss him, but I did. It was nothing. a peck. But I did not want to hurt your feelings so I lied to you.

I am so so so so sorry for hurting you. We were not doing so good, I was lonely, i was hopeless. No matter what I said, you could not hear me. I felt like I was talking to the wind. talking to the air. It hurt me so bad, I could not keep going like that. I had to detach. I had to not care. And to be honest, that is what it took for you to finally listen to me.

But I am still so sorry that i hurt you. I will never do it again, i will never cheat again, because it feels so rotten. Please accept my aoplogy and please please please hear me. please listen. when you dont it makes me feel so hopeless. It makes me feel so alone.

That Craigslist Ad

I am sorry that I put an add on craigslist advertising that there was a tow dolly available for free behind our apartment complex in San Diego. It was not mine to give away and I feel bad.I did it out of spite for the parking spot.

I was pissed, really pissed. Unreasonably pissed. A car was parked in a community spot for months. Somebody left a note that asserted that the car was abandoned and recommended moving it. The intention of that note was to communicate that the car should be moved to a completely different location.

The car was just pushed a few feet forward, with the before-mentioned dolly placed beneath it. A few days later, the dolly was moved to obstruct the parking spot directly behind the offensively parked vehicle.The dolly was probably worth more than the car.

I assumed that the dolly was 'owned' by the same person who owned the offending car. I considered moving the dolly myself, but then decided to place the ad on craigslist advertising a free dolly give-away. That was wrong for me to do.

It seemed like a funny idea at the time and now I feel bad about it. I regret doing harm to someone who is apparently a nearby [inconsiderate] neighbor. The dolly's previous owner will not find out who posted the ad.

The email address used to place the add was disposable and submitted through the anonymous proxy server Tor. Only the government could trace the source of that email address and this post.

The offending car is currently double parked in that same community spot. I wish it was moved so other people could park there, but I consider the spot paid for. I will personally not be pissed anymore, but the other neighbors may.

I cheated on you while I was gone.

I hated you for having your life together.

I told H all of your worst faults.

I didn't realize how good I had it until you were gone.

I am sorry I was such a jerk and I am sorry I will never have another chance. The only thing that I am thankful for is the fact that you left me. Even though it is tearing me apart to see you across the room with someone else you did the right thing. You have made me a better person. It is just too bad that it is too late. I love you teddy thank you for making me a better person.

But most of all I'm sorry that you are a heartless bastard that is completely uncapable of attempting to be a decent father to our son. Despite everything he wants to give you another chance. But, I can't do it. I can't put him through that again. He doesn't need to be hurt by you ever again. I will do everything in my power to keep that from happening.

It's My Problem Now

I'm sorry I don't trust you. I've been waiting for you my entire life and I adore you. It's true that I've forgiven you for your brief, yet intense, preoccupation with your ex-wife. If I wanted to be with you, I had to forgive you without ever having been given a satisfactory answer to my questions about what was really going on. I took a leap of faith in allowing our lives together to continue and to dare to dream that we (and all 4 children!) could have a future together. It's also true that since the time that you asked for my forgiveness you've done absolutely nothing to cause me not to trust you. But I still don't. And I suppose that's not really your fault at this point. It's my problem now, but the reason I'm apologizing is that I can feel my distrust affecting our relationship and I have no idea how to stop it.

Rock Bottom is Behind Me

I'm so sorry for disappointing you, family, colleagues and dear friends. I made mistakes, serious errors in judgment and for that I deeply apologize. I was so caught up in living a lie I would do anything necessary to keep it going. Taking the money was so easy and it kept me afloat when the seas felt rough. I was wrong, I knew it then and know it now; I simply didn’t stop myself. I was so very unhappy back then, almost numb as I hid the pain with a rosy facade. I'm healing now, slowly but surely my true joy is coming back. There are sure to be bumps in the road, but rock bottom is behind me and abundance and freedom are my new realities. I want to assure you that all the money I owe will be repaid. This learning and the person I am becoming, however, is priceless.

Burnt Raisin to Her Sun

Your coldness hurts more than any other hurtful word you can possibly utter. I will accept this and respect your need to be left alone. In the course of your withdrawal, I hope you'd learn to forgive me. I am truly sorry I ever hurt you. I got hurt real bad too. But I am sorry. I admit I treated you wrongly. You hated how I put you on the spot. I detested being sought only in the dark... Maybe this mututal scourging we give each other will only end the moment we reach a state of apathy. Something we probably should resort to if only to keep ourselves from more pain. Because the further we love, the graver the pain. I will disturb you no more. But... I still love you./ Burnt Raisin to her Sun

After I Hung Up With You

I am sorry, my friend. After I hung up with you I felt so sad. I wish I knew what to do, I would do anything to make it better for you. All I can do is listen to you and provide for you the safe place that we all need and few receive or even find, worse if you think you found it so many times the person is a disappointment. I am sorry, I promise I will never be that to you. You have given it to me and I want to always remind you that I am happy and feel honored to return the favor.

I am sorry you feel under used! Funny, it is not that I don't trust you, or rely on something else. It is because I hate to burden unless I am desperate, I don't like pressing the panic button, I do not feel sorry for me and I don't want u to either. I always figure things out and learn a lesson that I rarely repeat if I understand the lesson. I am sorry I am stubborn, I just can't give up to easily until I understand it,then I am completely done.

This has changed me in lots of ways, good and bad, hindsight will be the only real answer.

I am sorry I know it makes u mad but relax because I know adored a phantom that didn't exist. I do feel sad about it and the time I wasted. I just thought it would end I never watched the clock. Yes, it is scary about how much it flew, the massive cost but mostly the brutal damage it cost me to the core. I am sorry I am different, but so is my life for now. Someday I will get it back and more me will be accessible. I am sorry for the sadness, unsafety, confusion, frustration and lost feelings. Someday it won't be, I pray, I pray it is soon.

The Weird Freak Show I Am In

I am sorry that I am stuck in a bizarre world and everyone I know lies and I know there is some reason they must have but I am so sorry that I am trusting you to keep letting this happen while I suffer for it daily. I have no clue why and what is coming I have 1000 ideas and it is miserable.

I am sorry that I am unable to feel safe or free for one minute each day. I am sorry you chose to do this and ruin the one thing I could rely on and without much failure. Now I question my instincts and I am self aware sometimes when I never feel that way and trust nobody and I am sorry I doubt I will again.

i am sorry that the person I used to love is not that man and I am sorry we could not have just had a mulligan. I am sorry you can not handle a great one to one relationship and quantity is a better choice and fits for you. I am sorry for wishing you were different but thankful that I'm not wasting more time on that wish and know this is the way it is and I am at peace with it.

I am sorry I can't figure out what I know I need to be doing to end the weird freak show I am in and that someone is sending me messages and I keep guessing wrong, I am sorry I don't know who and more sorry whoever doesn't man up and come say it all to my face so I am not wasting more time guessing and want to get on with it.
