Help Me Understand

Dear {Name},

I might not understand what I did to hurt you, but I am aware that I have offended you deeply. I did not mean to cause you so much heartbreaking pain and anguish and I hope you believe me. Even though I have hurt you, it was not intended because I did not know any better. Call me an ignorant fool, call me what you will, but please let me make things better and make things right. I need your help to understand.

First let me understand how I hurt you and I can vow that it will never happen again. I want to learn, I want to make my amends, I want to do anything I can to make you happy once more. Relationships take work and although I can make mistakes, it is only because I have never been involved in such a deep and loving relationship before. This is new to me and I am still learning how to act and behave.

It's not difficult, trust me. Loving you is the easiest thing I have ever done, because you make it easy. And I hope you will help me to make things better for the both of us. I did not realize anything I could have said or done would have hurt you so badly, there was no malicious intent and you must know that. And although I am having a difficult time understanding the pain I have caused you, it is not because I don't want to. I do want to. I wish I could feel that sting for you and take it away. I would bear all of the suffering for you if you would only allow me.

Please forgive me for my grievances, I meant no harm and I have never had any ill intent or behavior ever in mind. I have only always loved you since the day I met you. I throw myself at your mercy and hope that your love is as strong as mine. I hope that love will allow you to see how imperfect I am but how perfect my love is for you. I only make mistakes because I did not realize there would be any hurt. Please forgive me my love, and help me to make things right.

Patiently Yours,
{Name}
