गिल्ट के अनकहे मैसेज

To tate C., Crush

To that one boy in 10th grade: I like you a lot. Like, obsessive type of like. I don't think it's even a like, really. It's more like.... limerence or mania (limerence and mania are obsessive types of love). That sounds wrong. Let me restart. I really like you. I don't wanna tell you because you don't wanna date and you obviously don't like me, but it's okay. I also know Kirby doesn't have any love interests in the games or shows, but we can write one in. That's what we're good at, right?

To Cassandra, 22, Ex

I thought leaving you and thinking "you'll find someone better" was a good idea. I guess I'm wrong. I've red your letter and I'm too late. I'm sorry for being so selfish. I'm sorry for hurting you and I know my apology can't do anything. But I will never get tired of seeking for your forgiveness and I hope you forgive me someday even if it takes years. I hope we cross paths again if the universe lets us. Maybe.

3 years meant nothing right? surely it didn’t cause you said we were “nothing”. just so you know I was waiting. waiting. just to find you betraying me. I regret loving you and I know for a fact that you never loved me, you never did. you can’t do this to someone you love. you never can. I would never. amar majhemodhde tomake ask korte iccha kore, keno? keno. k.e.n.o. I hope I get answer to that one day. I hope you don’t ruin us in another universe. I’ll never forgive you, never.

To Melanye M., 14,

When i first met you, something sparked. i may not know how to express it but i truly love you, sorry if i confuse you, i fear rejection, i care of what people think. I fear getting called slurs when walking down the school hallways. Directly or non-directly. I fear of people finding out that i am queer. Its 2026 but homophobia is still a heavy thing, in my household, at school-- i love you deeply, always. I love you, i hope we build a future together. <3

To Dan, 14, Crush

Dear Dan, i know you never really liked me and all, but i always wished to be able to see you again and whisper in your ear every single cute thing i did while thinking about you. Every single one of those 11 love letters i wrote to you that i wont show, i never regret writing them. still think about you after all this time. I hope we see again and that those cute dreams of mines once day come true. I still remember little things u think u never told me, i put ur fav color as the back round btw

To A A., Ex

Love like that is rare, but it happened with you. I've grown so much since we last spoke, I wish I could show you. But you wont let me. It's weird knowing you're out there but not knowing anything else. I guess I'm starting to accept this new life without you. It's not what I want. But it is reality.

To hannah,

im proud of myself for breaking away from your abusive gaslighting. you were way too old to be so creepy to others like that, you knew better and im not gonna ever let some bum talk to me that way ever again. i hope you grow and feel guilt so you dont hurt anyone ever again, and that you find joy in being a good person instead of a gross grooming weirdo.

To someone, 16,

why weren't you more clear with what you wanted? i never knew if you actually liked me or just liked being flirtly. now it's too late. i'll watch you get married. and you'll name your daughter like me. and she will have your eyes and your laugh. and everything will be over. and i'll smile cause you'll smile and we won't regret anything. and i will stop waiting.

To Joshua, Ex

You were my first heartbreak, and it's honestly embarrassing that you were a catfish in looks and in personality. I still stayed though, because I really did care about you, and you ended up playing not just me but at LEAST two other people too. I will never be the other man again. Thank you for teaching me that horrible men don't deserve my time, thank you for teaching me that I can be more, and I genuinely do hope you grow and learn so you can make others happy instead of hurting them.

To Izzi, 17, Ex

hi izzi, it's me, again. i miss you, do you feel that way too? i reckon not, i'm sorry for not being enough for you. i hope you're happier now without me present in your life, and i hope to see you succeed in life. but if you suddenly have the feeling of wanting to come back, you know the door's always open.

To Devon S., 24, Friend

I always think of you. I always pray for your happiness. May God bless you with a wonderful woman, you deserve it. I’m sorry my love was not enough, I’ll always keep our memories close and dear to my heart. I miss you and I miss laughing at your crazy jokes. It always makes me smile when I think about you.

To Nabilah, 16, Friend

hi bilah, it's raina. i miss you a lot, you're seriously one of the most important people in my life, and that's because you've helped me a lot throughout highschool. whenever things got rough and i felt as if the world was crumbling, you got me through it. i'm sorry i'm not there to help you fight your own battles, and i'm sorry if i ever made you feel like you couldn't tell me your problems. you're one of my closest friends, and that'll never change. -rhh

— RH

To Ellies, 15, Friend

hi ellies, ni raina. i'm really sorry that i was so mean to you last year, and i get that you wanted to be friends with mia too, and i got carried away with my feelings. nevertheless, i really hope you succeed in life, because believe it or not, you really are special, your kindness and softness is not something everyone has, so please. don't let other people use you. -rhh

— RH

To Fatin, 15, Friend

hi tin, it's raina. i wanted to thank you, for being someone i can open up to when i'm at my lowest. someone i can run to when the world is mean to me. someone who's lent me a shoulder for years now. i'm sorry i go to boarding school, and i can't spend as much time as i used to with you. but i want you to know that i'm so grateful and happy that i have a friend like you. someone i can call a best friend, someone who has the biggest heart ever. i love you, fatin -rhh

To Aish Izzi, 17, Ex

sometimes i cry by the thought of you never putting as much effort as i did for you. why though? is it because your heart is stuck on your ex girlfriend? your first love? i'm sorry then, for ever trying to give my heart to you. it hurts izzi, please, understand me. why does it have to be like this? why do we have to be like this? -rhh

— RHH

To Mom, 46, Parent

to my mom, i'm sorry i'll never live up to your expectations. i'm sorry for ever yelling at you. i'm sorry for cutting myself. i'm sorry for being selfish. i'm sorry for being the daughter that can't achieve anything. please, forgive me. i love you.

— RHH

To Aish I., 17, Ex

hi, izzi, you probably won't ever see this. but i miss you, you probably won't remember me by the time you even find this. i'm sorry i wasn't a good girlfriend, and i hope if you find someone better, it was worth it. but promise me one thing, you'll keep me in your heart. i love you, KAAI.

— R H.

To Blue K., 28, Crush

I’m really sorry if you felt "used".. That honestly hurt to hear. I would never use you — that thought never even crossed my mind. From the first moment I saw you, my eyes just lit up. I felt something different. You make me feel things I’ve never felt before. You take my breath away without even trying. That day never really ended. You’ve been on my mind forever.. In my eyes you're everything 💙 💙 💙

To L J.,

Never knew love at first site nor never been heartbroken. But now i know what both feel like. It was brief but it was the best few weeks of getting to know someone ever in my 40+ years of living. Never knew my soulmate until i met you. Right person wrong time. Wish we could have given it a shot to see what could have happened. Disappointed but get it.

Hi. Yes, this is Garnet. It's been almost 3 yrs. I stumbled into this site and was writing messages so I thought I'd do 1 4 u. It took me 2yrs to forget. I didn't know struggled with depression and severe attachment issues. I'm doing better, I think. What about you? I hope I didn't make you entirely hate me. We were kids, I understand. I'm sorry if I was acting stubborn back then. I'm really embarrassed about it. I wish we could catch up again. Well, if you'd evn 👀 this. That's all. Contact me?

To Alexa, Ex

I’m sorry for initiating no contact like that I know we probably broke up for the better and going no contact might have helped but I still regret it I’m sorry if I hurt you and I think I did I miss you but I’m to scared to msg you again I feel like you would’ve moved on by now which makes me scared to msg you and I’m worried if I msg you it’ll make things worse I’m sorry about everything how I was before we broke up also how you said you’d break my legs if we ever met again was funny cya around

To Salman A., 13, Ex

I’m so sorry, I want you back but not as my lover but as my friend, I understand if you don’t want that, but just now this, whenever you feel left out, send a text or give an call, I’ll answer and/text back right away, I know that it might seem desperate but true me, I’m not, I just hate seeing/knowing that someone is sad and I could just fix that but just talking to them, so yeah, anyways hope you can give me your forgiveness and trust back.

To Afia M., 19,

It was always you.It is still you.It will always be you.I left without words, consumed by fear and guilt,because I thought our love was prohibited.I tried to make myself believe being with a guy would fix me ,erase my feelings for you, but he only ruined me.I lost myself trying to escape what I truly felt, from whom I truly loved. In leaving you,I hurt you and destroyed something beautiful, and I regret it deeply.I am truly sorry for everything. I still love you, and perhaps i always will<3
