Forgive me, from a former friend

A Letter of Regret, Love, and Hope

Dear Richard,

Please forgive me. Forgive me for every moment you did something amazing for me, and I failed to truly appreciate it. Forgive me for the arguments, for the misunderstandings, for the times I let my insecurities cloud my judgment.

I was foolish I didn’t treat you as the friend and partner you deserved. I didn’t fully understand what love truly meant, and because of that, I made mistakes. I let doubt and fear get the best of me, and I wrongly assumed things about you about Laura, about everything. The irritation, the suspicions, the tension it was all for nothing. And I see that now.

But what I also see now, clearer than ever, is how much I truly love you. It’s real, more real than I ever understood before. I know my mistakes, and I accept the consequences, but my heart still hopes that one day, you will return to me and give me one more chance.

More than anything, I want you to be happy. I hope that you find the kind of joy I once saw in your eyes during our best moments together. And even if that happiness is not with me, I will still wish it for you every single day.

But if there is ever a way back to us, if there is ever a moment where our paths cross again, I will be here willing, grateful, and ready to love you the way you always deserved.

Love you always,
Tangy
