anita,

He was drunk and upset and there was yelling but I needed space not because he was aggressive (which he usually wasn’t, until that last conversation) but because I was unsure of what I wanted anymore and to find the reason as to why I wasn’t happy anymore. Before I moved home, I had gone through a bad friendship breakup, I was ghosted by my close knit group of friends right after this bad injury and I was emotionally unstable and he was there for me through it all. But since then, I have changed a lot, Ive grown more confident and willing to speak my mind, and I think we didn’t have the chance to change and grow together and it felt like I was still that person when we’d speak, I was unsure of who I was and what I wanted when the breakup happened because life’s been a rollercoaster of experience for me lately.

But regarding how I had been there for him, I now realize that I could’ve handled situations like those better and been more supportive, even though I thought I was. This will be something I’ll be more conscious of in the future, and apologize when I get that chance. Thank you for bringing this to light, I always try to be my best self but it helps when someone helps light the way.

Eve
