And I meant every word

I wrote this the other night...

I may be pathetic, damaged, and a man child, but I am sincere in my words.

I am well aware how this looks, and the further mockery it may engender, but...yeah. That isn't important.

JMFJT,
I love you and I care.
I am sorry that you don't think this is going to work out but...I do.
We have both been burned, we both carry our damage with us, and I think we both want each other.
I will leave you alone until you reach out to me but I will be waiting for you, even if you choose not to wait for me.
You keep mentioning my singledom and that it is what I want, but that is far from the case. I wanted to remain single because I didn't want these difficulties, and I didn't want to be responsible for disappointing other people or causing them pain.
And I met you, and I resisted, not because I didn't want you, but because I didn't want to fail...you & myself...and then have the whole concept of relationships fucked for me forever.
But I fell in love with you; hard, fast & completely.
And...I believe that you love me.
So...if you want me, I am here. If you don't or this is too much work, I understand.
Love you,
A Mistake
