I’m from Los Angeles, CA my ex-girlfriend is from Commonwealth, Quezon City I tried getting in touch with her to let her know that I still care and that I’m still in love with her. And to say sorry for everything that I’ve done and that I’m sorry for being selfish. I don’t know maybe this is the only for her to know everything since she’s a million miles away from me.
Karla Mae Pagarigan, I want you to know that I’m sorry for everything, for being selfish and for not supporting you in things that you want to achieve. I was blinded by jealousy and in return I lost you. Until now, that mistake still haunts me. I know you deserve to be treated far more better than I did. I had to let you go, to make you happy and to make up for all the mistakes that I did. I want you know that even though I did it with a heavy heart, I did it to make you happy. You’re probably with someone else now, that’s okay. All that I’m hoping now is that he will love you, cherish you, and treat you better than I did as if you’re the only girl in the world. Nothing’s more important to me right now than know that you’re okay.
