If you're reading this, thank you for giving me the chance to be heard.

First of all, I'm truly sorry. I know my words hurt you, and I understand why. Looking back, I can see how what I said could have sounded as if I was talking about you, even though I wasn't. I was speaking about girls in general, never about you, but I completely understand why it didn't come across that way. I'm deeply sorry for making you feel hurt because that was never my intention.

One thing I've been thinking about a lot is that neither of us is perfect. This wasn't the first mistake either of us has ever made, and it certainly won't be the last. As long as we're alive, we're both going to make mistakes. That's simply part of being human.

I truly believe that if two people want a relationship to last, not just for months, but for years, for a lifetime, they have to accept that mistakes will happen along the way. I don't think the strongest relationships are the ones where nobody ever gets hurt. I think they're the ones where both people are willing to acknowledge their mistakes, sincerely apologize, forgive each other, learn from them, and keep choosing one another despite them.

During the time you had me blocked, I spent a lot of time reflecting on everything that happened. I thought about every conversation, every word, and every moment that led us here. This experience taught me something important: I need to be much more careful with the way I express myself. Even if I know what I mean in my own mind, my words can still be understood differently, and that matters. I never want my wording to hurt the person I love most again.

I also wanted to respect the space you asked for. That's why I stopped asking Maryana to pass messages to you. As difficult as it was, I chose to wait because I wanted things to happen naturally. I wanted you to unblock me only when you genuinely felt ready, not because anyone pressured you into it.

I know life hasn't been easy for you lately, and I can only imagine how overwhelming everything must have felt. I understand that you've been carrying a lot on your shoulders, and I don't blame you for needing space. I just want you to know that you never have to carry those burdens alone. Whatever life puts in front of you, I want to be the person standing beside you through it all. I'll always be here for you. I won't walk away when life becomes difficult, because loving someone also means staying when things get heavy. I hope you'll always remember that, no matter what you're facing, you don't have to face it alone.

As painful as this experience has been, I want to thank you for the lesson it taught me. I honestly believe that difficult moments can either pull two people apart or help them grow into something even stronger. They force us to reflect, to mature, and to become better partners. I hope that, one day, we'll be able to look back at this as something that made us stronger rather than something that defined us.

Bogdana, I love you more than I could ever put into words. My feelings for you have never been temporary, and they've never depended on whether things were easy or difficult. I chose you because I see my future with you, and that's still true today.

I want to build a life with you. I want to keep growing beside you, supporting you, making you laugh on your hardest days, celebrating your happiest ones, and being the person you can always come home to. I promise to keep becoming a better partner every single day, because you deserve the very best version of me.

I know trust isn't rebuilt with beautiful words alone. It's rebuilt through actions, consistency, patience, and time. That's exactly what I want to give you. I don't expect perfection from either of us. I only hope that whenever life becomes difficult, we'll remember that we're on the same team.

No matter what tomorrow brings, I will always be grateful for loving you. Thank you for reading every word of this letter and for giving me the opportunity to open my heart to you one more time. I hope that, after reading this, you'll understand not only how sorry I am, but also how deeply I love you and how committed I am to becoming the partner you deserve.

Thank you for staying until the very last word. ♡
