To the Guy With the Girl Who Wants Someone Else Who is Me

I am sorry that you confessed your feelings and that I hastily turned you away. I understand that my feelings should be this way because you are already taken but I am fearing that I falling for you. Your smile and voice are constantly running through my mind now, my mind is constantly cluttered with thoughts of you. I am sorry for everything and I just don't know what to do.

Maybe You Wouldn't Have Killed Yourself

I'm sorry I was a bitch to you. I'm sorry I never called you. I'm sorry I backspaced because I was too nervous to leave you a comment on myspace. I'm sorry we never had more time to talk. Because maybe, just maybe, you wouldn't have killed yourself.

A Little Smarter and a Lot Sorry

I'm sorry you don't respect me enough to honor my silence. I'm sorry again that you feel badgering is a way to encounter me. I'm sorry you left angry. I'm so very, very sorry that in over a year you have not come to know me better. That you do not understand that if I choose to be silent it is most likely one of two things...either I've been hurt or I'm afraid and very sure my own words will hurt. I'm sorry Paul behaved like an ass that night and I'm sorry i wasn't smart enough to lie to you about it. So I'm a little smarter and a LOT sorry.

I know how hard it was for you to let me in this much. I'm sorry.
I want to help you.

I hope that one day I will have the patience needed.
I hope that no one hurts you in between.
I wish I had what you needed right now.
I love you and I'm sorry.

An Apology to Mrs. Brown

Mrs. Brown,

I am sorry I feel as if how you treated my daughter today was uncalled for, and utterly unprofessionsal. Do you have any idea what it was like to sit in that room and listen to you berate her for coming forth with a problem? You just do not know how serious I am about this situation, and in the process of what I witnessed today, it has become even more serious and detrimental in getting the truth out there. My daughter did nothing to provoke this man, how dare you even suggest such a thing. So when a woman is raped, are you saying they have done something to deserve that? I am sorry, but this is not the end of this situation by far, she is a victim, and right in front of myself, you treated her as if she was the offender. Sexual harrassment is a serious crime, and I will not tolerate my child being berated for coming forth.

I Was in a Coma of Depression

Dear Bill,

I'm sorry for what I did to you. I got caught up in my revenge and it was easy to let it go so far out of control.

When I left, I was in a coma of depression for a long time. Then I woke up, and I was inspired to do what I did. Everything was for you, I didn't care if anyone saw what I was doing, and when I heard you were following what I was doing closely, I was very happy. When I heard you said it was genius, I was even happier.

Only the things I did for you were great. Even that thing. Since we've been apart, I have been a shadow of my former self. When I hear you're the same way, I'm bitterly sad.

We had so much potential, and I couldn't see it at the time, or even after. I only see it now, and it's too late for me to go back. I can't even apologize because what I did was so awful, it's only right for me to go away and fade from your memory.

I think about you everyday, and I know you think of me. I wish I had made different choices all along the way and we could start over. On my couch, with the postcard. From that point on, I would have done so much differently.

You made me more than what I was before I knew you. And being without you has diminished me into a person I don't even know. I wish I could walk in and right up to you and look in your eyes and say I'm sorry, please forgive me. And I wish you would forgive me. There is a part of me that thinks you would.

Talk About Hot

I'm sorry that I couldn't turn around and start doing things that I know I at least would have regretted later when you were right behind me and I could actually feel my hair move with your every breath as you spoke. Talk about HOT, my goodness... Not only was the time and place inappropriate, but you're very married (although the happiness factor is extremely questionable, given how little time you actually seem to spend at home).

You seem to "slip" a lot and get in a lot of touchy-feely stuff over time---the "accidental" brush of your hand on mine as you're reaching for something else... I sincerely thank you for those fantasies, but it really needs to stop. At least you toned down on the cologne a bit, so I don't pass out from the chemical overload when you come over. I do appreciate that.

It Wasn't Just You...

I'm so very sorry. It wasn't just you -- well, Yes, it was. Found you too cheap to be true and I didn't have the nerve to say so. But if truth be told, you're as tight with a $ as anyone I've ever know (with the exception of my mother).

I don't have a pot to piss in. Who knows, if I did I might be as cheap as you are. GOD, this feels good! If I had your money, honey, I'd burn mine.

Hell, that saved a lot of trouble. Not really, will send an email saying I'm sorry anyhow....maybe.

My Apology for What it Is

I'm sorry you can't accept my apology for what it is. Shows me what type of person you really are. You're no saint. You're a selfish, spoiled, 30 year old man who doesn't know how to grow up. You're always crying about people being in your business and how you don't like drama. Here's a reality check, you lash out at me I have a right to share my feelings with whomever I please. Quit being a whiney baby. You don't own me or my actions just because they involve you. GET OVER YOURSELF. Next time you want to avoid drama, just take my message to you for what it is and leave it be. But you're so far from reality you don't realize you chose to live in drama daily. You tell your business to someone who shares your business with everyone else but you're too blind to see that because she admits to saying things. But don't you ever wonder why she doesn't admit to saying specific things? If you only knew what I know about you. But don't worry I'm not going to tell people your business, you've proven you're very capable of doing that yourself. You just get pissed when you're sharing your drama with someone that already knows. Your life has been nothing but a Soap Opera. You should probably change your name to Rex, that's a better name for your daytime show.

To My Parents, Brother and Sisters

I wish I had left him sooner. I did not realize that he was the one alienating me from you all. Being with him blinded me to so much, and my relationship with y'all seems to be one of the casualties of my fight to survive. Thankfully, I did not lose you forever. I am also thankful for your support as I left all of that behind and moved forward.

I'm sorry that it took such a long time for me to extricate myself from his life and that I was so isolated from you for so long. I'm sorry I did not see what was happening to us. I'm sorry I didn't make better choices along the way.

All I can do is not ever let unnecessary conflict come between us again, and appreciate your willingness to forgive. If only everyone was so lucky to have a family like you.

I love you.

Forgiveness From God I Hope Will Mend

these holes in my face are nothing
compared to the holes in my heart
ive washed away all my tears
with blood, sweat and regret
each day, a bitter suite to fill the emptiness
another empty promise
this cant be me anymore
the face i see each day is not me
an empty shell, a closed casket
this cant be me anymore
i cant go on like this
these words of sorrow i hope will mend
forgiveness from God i hope he'll send
please, deliver me from this evil
these demons that control
awaken me oh heavenly spirit
guide me and fill me with love
so i can be free once again

To You Sir in the Parking Lot

I can't believe myself!!!! To you sir in the parking lot at the volleyball tournament, I'm sorry. I'm so embarassed and disappointed in myself. If I could go back I would just drive away but it's a pet peeve of mine when people park using up two parking places and I must have had just the right combination of sleep deprivation and too much caffeine. I didn't plan ahead as to what might happen when I got out of my van and pounded on your window to tell you to move. I didn't plan on swearing at you or giving you the finger but my temper must have revved up with the adrenaline of the situation. Thank you for the control and maturity you showed by not elevating the situation with this madman standing outside your window. I regret this so much and wish I could apologize to you in person, I have prayed hoping that you would be consoled. I do have a temper that I have been working on for years but have never done anything like this before. I hope someday you might see this.

Sorry for Lying About Everything

Sorry for lying about everything. A lot of people hated you because of it, and I still can't look you in the eye. Despite all that, you're still an annoying bitch. Why do you think they believed my word over yours anyway? I can't be blamed for no one liking you, but I probably contributed to the rapidity of your demise.

What I'm trying to say is, it would've happened anyway in the end, but I'm still really sorry. And I'm sorry that I still need to try and justify my actions, even within this apology.

It was fun while it lasted, and helped make me who I am today.

Meanie in Milwaukee

Sixteen years ago I was enrolled in a sunday school program at a Unitarian Church in a suburb north of Milwaukee, WI. I was only eleven or twelve years old and was going through a tremendously difficult time in my childhood. I've read that abuse is cyclical, and since my peers at middle school were throwing verbal and sometimes physical abuse at me on a daily basis, I in turn took it out on my sunday school classmates. I was especially cruel to two girls my age who were a little over-weight, and my constant bullying towards them eventually caused them both to drop out of the class. Because I was being picked on as well, I thought that being mean to others would make me feel better about myself. Instead, it made me feel worse.

I am now twenty eight years old and have gotten over that rough patch in my childhood to become a compassionate and intelligent woman. However, lately I've been thinking more and more about the way I acted towards my sunday school classmates back then, especially those two girls. I am truly sorry for the way I acted, even after all of these years. I realize that I was just a child at the time who was going through her own problems, but I feel that even this is no excuse for my rotten behavior.

With all of my sincerest apologies,

Meanie in Milwaukee

I feel like I did a bunch of good for them. Both of them. And you too. It clarified what you were willing to put up with. I miss you, but I'm sure it's for the best. I can only think that "Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove. It is an ever fixed mark, that looks upon tempests and is never shaken." Alas, love is complicated. I never meant to hurt or disrespect you. Have a good life J.

I Have No Right to Judge You

Emily,

I am sorry I can no longer be your friend. I know that I have no right to judge you, but my gosh, I cannot help it. How many men are going to be more important than your two beautiful daughters? Smoking weed and then worrying when your daughter has been doing things she shouldn't be, great way to set an example! Maybe if you actually put more effort into being their mother, things would be different, but, then again you never really did do that great a job at being a mom anyways. I have watched this for far too long from the sidelines, and I am tired. They trusted me to help you, but you couldn't even help yourself. You're so utterly crazy and selfish, it makes me sick! I am sorry, but your desicions of like what the past four years or so are just so ridiculous and never in the best interest of your children, when are you finally going to grow up and realize men come and go, but your children are yours for life. But I guess that's why they are with their dad and not you!!
