I will love you forever and I am now praying you will find one you can love. I started praying it yesterday. I should have prayed it for you a long time ago when you first asked me to pray that you would find someone new. But I was too selfish, and did not love you enough to want what is best for you.
I know my love for you is a sad thing, mewling and whining, cringing and clinging. And so, so grasping and greedy. I know it is a pallid thing and miserable. If it were a bird, it would be an albatross- a heavy weight that hangs heavy on the heart and brings sorrow.
I was once told that I don't know how to love and I believe that is true. I tried to hang on to someone too far above me, and thought too much of myself.
I know I'm not good enough for you, on any metric. If I were beautiful and sexy enough, or good enough, or sophisticated enough, or bad enough, or happy enough, or innocent enough, if I measured up on any metric- maybe I could have a chance. But I feel my lacking very sorely.
I think I am supposed to be lonely and alone and it is my punishment for the different sins I have committed throughout life. And I am sorry for imposing myself upon you. I feel singularly unfit to have any sort of interaction with anyone. I always screw it up in some way.
I am praying that you will find your dream woman. I will be forever sorry it was not me. You don't have to drag out letting me go.
