Hi, darling! I hope you’re doin’ good with your new one. I hope she’s treating you the way you deserve. I hope she’s doing everything for you, and that you both are doing well. I wish you both nothing but happiness and the best in everything.

I’m here to tell you that I’m deeply and sincerely sorry for everything and to express my deepest gratitude for once having met someone like you. Thank you for the wounds you caused — bec of that, I found myself. I rediscovered myself. I thought that breakup would completely break and kill the hell out of me, but instead it shaped me into someone really stronger and far happier than I’ve ever been.

I may not be part of your life anymore, but I’ll always be grateful for the memories and lessons we shared. You were once my everything, Raynald — & I hope you’re living your happiest life with her.

But honestly, I’d be freaking lying if I said it didn’t hurt — seeing u how fast and easily moved on while I was still tryna figuring out everything about us. I hope you’re truly happy with her. Because I am finally happy too. But, not because I found someone new, but because I found myself. You replaced me so fast, like what we wad meant nothing to you. I’m so furious, not bec you found someone new immediately, but because I was still bleeding while you were alr smiling with someone else. Maybe that’s the difference — you replaced, and I healed.

Now, I’m in a place where I can finally smile genuinely without feeling anything again, not bec I’ve forgotten u, but because I’ve forgiven u and myself. You were once part of beautiful chapter, one that taught me that love isn’t meant to last — uhm, sometimes it’s meant to teach. And with that, I’ll always be thankful for you.

This will end everything for the both of us. I will no longer repost anything about you, will no longer post anything about you, and will no longer, and will no longer reach out or make you feel my presence anymore. I will let you live peacefully with her, even if it means disappearing completely. I will always be here clapping for you. I will always be proud of everything you’ve achieved and everything you’re yet to achieve. Thank you for everything, mi amor.
