My love,
I have been sitting here, staring at this page, trying to find the right words. I have started and erased this message more times than I can count, but no matter how I phrase it, nothing seems to capture what I truly feel. The truth is, I messed up, and I am truly sorry.
I know that saying sorry is not enough. I know that words alone cannot take away the hurt I have caused you. I can only hope that my actions from this moment forward will show you how deeply I regret everything. I wish I could turn back time and undo what happened, but I cannot. All I can do is promise to be better, to never let you feel this way again.
There are moments when I look at you and wonder how I got so lucky. You have a way of making everything feel lighter, of bringing warmth into even the coldest days. You are kind, patient, and loving in ways I have never known before. You have given me a love that is rare, a love that is unwavering even when I do not deserve it. And yet, I hurt you. That is the hardest thing for me to accept.
I have spent a lot of time thinking about what I should have done differently. I should have listened. I should have understood where you were coming from instead of letting my own thoughts and emotions take over. I should have been more patient, more present, more aware of how my words and actions were affecting you. I should have put your feelings before my own pride. Instead, I let a moment of frustration take over, and in doing so, I hurt the one person I love the most.
The truth is, you mean everything to me. More than anything, I want you to know that my love for you is greater than my mistakes. It is greater than any argument, any misunderstanding, any moment of weakness. You are my partner, my best friend, the person who makes every ordinary day feel extraordinary just by being in it. And I do not ever want you to doubt that.
I know that trust is fragile. It takes time to build, but only a moment to break. If I have shaken that trust in any way, I will do whatever it takes to earn it back. I will listen better. I will be more patient. I will remind you every single day how much I love and appreciate you, not just through my words, but through my actions. I will never let my pride come before our love again.
Right now, I do not know if you are ready to talk, and I will not rush you. I will give you the space you need, and when you are ready, I will be here, waiting with open arms. I will be here, ready to make things right, ready to prove to you that I will never take what we have for granted again.
I love you. I love you with everything I have, and I will spend every day showing you just how much.
I am sorry, my love. And I will prove it.
Forever yours,
L
