Intentions are important, but what is more important is the action that follows.

And for that I am sorry.

My ego was more important to me than our relationship, and I made the wrong choice.

In life, I have harmed more people than just you.

I had my reasons, but none of them validated my actions.

There are no excuses.

I am not a child, and when someone intentionally hurts others, there are consequences.

The truth is that I was selfish.

In life, as adults, we cannot keep treating others with such disrespect and pain.

Sometimes I feel like it is harder to come forward and say I am sorry than letting it be.

But I know that hiding behind my excuses is wrong.

It is not easy to admit my mistakes, so it has taken me so long to say anything.

Similarly, it is also possible for us to step up and do the right thing.

Very few people can do thatI know I was never one of them.

I genuinely feel bad for the way I treated you and that I did not consider you.

I was blinded by my egocentricity.

I wish I had done this sooner, but I kept making more excuses and kept validating my actions.

I am taking the first step and acknowledging my faults and mistakes.

I am truly sorry.

I did something terrible, and I will do whatever it takes to attempt to make it right.

I chose my ego over you, and I got what I deserved.

It is important to reach out and apologize when we know what we did is wrong.

I do not expect you to forget it all.

I hope someday you will find it in your heart to forgive me for my mistakes.

In hurting you, I ended up hurting myself and losing you forever.
