Honestly, I don't believe I have with as much sincerity. I'm sure I said something similar after the bomb but likely came off as 'pleading/apologizing/anything to change this'

I wouldn't even bring the old - well, if things change let me know - stance.


Yeah , again, I got "some" stuff I needed out there but just didn't hardline it enough. I got "soft" when I saw her 'hurt'

In retrospect, what about MY HURT, right?

I gotta get stronger. Not what I wanted but better than what I would have done before DB. I just have to take how I feel NOT with her and carry it into dealing WITH her.


"Hold On to Your N.U.T.S" is on the way. Hopefully ingrained before NEXT meeting.

And thanks for this:
