Hi, how are you doing? I don’t think there is ever a good time to ever send this, so I am going to be straight up, no point in pretending. It’s easy to show the world I’m doing fine, and for the most part I am. That doesn’t mean I don’t miss you. Because I do. I miss our happy moments, sad moments, jokes, our trust, and so much more. I don’t want to never talk to you again. That’s the last thing I want. 
From our relationship, I learned a lot. I gave up on myself. I stopped working on my goals and dreams. I lost myself as a person. I made you a priority over myself, which made things messy. I didn’t know how to be “me” anymore. My personal development needed to become a priority.

I’ve learned things from this process that I never would’ve otherwise. To ensure I don’t go overboard with my time and affection, to give time for myself and the things I love to do. I need to see friends. I need to be my own person. Do what I want and need. I’m learning. I’m growing. I am becoming happy with myself. I’m becoming the best version of myself, the person I always strived to be. You changed too, I’m sure some was partially due to me changing, but not all. But that’s for you to figure out. Were there things that needed to be fixed between us? Definitely. I think there is in every relationship. Could they have been fixed? Truthfully, with proper communication yes, I think so. We needed to be able to talk about everything. Lack of communication hurt us big time. 

I’d like one day to be able to go for drinks at tims, or get McDonalds after work and just catch up… re-learn things about each other we may not know anymore. At the end of the day, I still would like to keep our friendship intact. I want to be here for you, if you’ll let me. I’m not saying to make plans this week or even this month. Just know I’d be up for it and know you can message me no matter what. 

Thank you for letting me go. I needed it more than I knew. 

I will always love you.
