I’m backsliding. Any progress gained revealed an unburdened jerk. I wasn’t thinking about love. Too painful to even hope for. But then I allowed myself to try beyond my reach. You can’t fix me. You can’t accept me. And it’s fine. That’s not your job. It was an ambitious experiment. Enough now. Lay out the flowers.

You know what you did was wrong and everything you got yourself into after that was wrong. Even if you can't go back and fix that initial wrong right now, you can still walk away from everything that's been wrong after that. Leave it all and go do something different with no one different. Go find an new version of yourself.

Just wondering

Is this supposed to be an apology? Because it's not. It's manipulation using self-depreciation to leverage pity and play on guilt, which is pretty selfish. If you're going to spend any time and effort to say anything in public, you need to show actual love to enjoy love. That would mean making it about them, not about you. If they mean anything to you, then try again. Do better than handing out that performance.
