Apologizing isn’t going to change what happened between us.
It isn’t going to erase the past.
It isn’t going to heal my heartbreak.

Apologizing isnt going to change what happened between us.
It isnt going to erase the past.
It isnt going to heal my heartbreak.
It isnt going to magically make everything okay again.
Apologizing isnt going to make me trust you again.
Youve already broken my trust.
I have no idea how you would treat me in the future.
But I know how you treated me in the past.
I know what you put me through.
And Im not going to risk going through that again.
Apologizing isnt going to convince me to forgive you.
If there werent any repercussions, then would you still be this sorry?
If we were still together, if I let your mistakes slide, then would you still be sorry?
Or would you feel completely fine because nothing bad happened to you, it only happened to me?
Apologizing isnt going to bring us back together.
Idoappreciate you taking responsibility for your actions.
Iamglad youre self-aware enough to realize where you went wrong and mature enough to apologize for it.
I really hope youre telling the truth when you say youve changed.
I hope youve grown from this.
I hope youve bettered yourself.
But I can wish you the best from afar.
Apologizing isnt going to fix what happened.
It isnt going to be enough.
You should be apologizing to me because you feel bad about hurting me.
Not because you think its going to get you something.
I dont owe you another chance, just because you apologized.
I dont owe you a smile or a hug or a drink at the bar.
I can choose not to accept your apology.
Or I can choose to accept it without wanting to be friends again.
Stop acting like your apology makes you worthy of my love.
Remind yourself that there would be nothing for you to apologizeforif you treated me right all along.
The fact that you even have to make an apology is a red flag.
It means you arent able to rise to my standards.
It means you arent the right one for me.
It means we dont belong together, no matter what we once thought.
