[theme4dreams]

Thanks espressive! she has said ALL is forgiven and she was touched by it. Also she talked about how she still has thoughts about us being a couple. Anyways, espressive I wrote the letter because Im in Navy and we were suppost to go out to sea and Im not near her at the moment. Have a good one espressive.

so i'm guessing you did this person wrong in one form or another, and you are writing an apologetic letter while hoping it will blossom into a relationship? if that is the purpose, i think that those topics are better discussed in person rather than a letter... especially if you're looking to start a relationship again with this person. i think it'd be okay if you were just asking for a friendship in the letter, but i believe that is not the case. but anyways, here are a few things that i noticed.

1) avoid using phrases like you must felt awfully sad, alone and unloved. if you're looking for a relationship with this person, it's probably not a good idea to remind him/her of the bad stuff that happened between you guys. it's okay to use the word "pain" once in a while to acknowledge that you KNOW what you did, but do avoid using it often cause it will stir up that exact emotion while the person is reading it.

if that person has a grudge against you for the things that you did, i bet you he/she will not like the fact that YOU are telling him/her how she felt. don't assume emotions. quit saying that he/she is "in pain", even if that person was. avoid starting sentences with "you....", because it's intruding and based on assumptions. instead, say something like "i understand why you might've been _____, because i shouldn't have _______" or "i'm really, truly sorry for _______, and that what i have said/done may have hurt you." KEY WORDS: may, might've.

2) add more phrases like while I pray for your forgiveness from the heart I do not and can not expect it, because that is sincere while humble. you are not being demanding about it; you are giving the person options. REMEMBER to keep that tone throughout the entire letter. be humble, not demanding. this is an apology afterall, right?

3) you may want to acknowledge that fact that an apology through a letter may not sound sincere, but you do really mean it. i don't really know the reason why you are choosing the letter option, but do tell the person your reason.



and on that note - good luck!
