Shorter. Trying to be more concise and less "I".

DRAFT 2:

WAW,

This letter must been very difficult for you to write. The honesty and respect you are showing me is important and I appreciate you writing me and telling me about your plans.

We both have had a lot to navigate in this process of opening up and healing. If you need space for yourself, you should take it. In reading your confusion and anguish, my wish for you is that you are able to find resolution and peace for yourself in all of your actions and decisions.

Brunch was great on Sunday and our evening together was really special to me. I enjoyed our day together. Thank you for the validation of my patience in this process, your journey has been difficult and recognizing mine is very thoughtful.

I understand and respect that you need to make decisions for yourself, just as I make mine. I will keep your confidence in this letter.

Calling me would have been understandably difficult. Your decision to write me instead was best for both of us.

Be safe on your drive and take care of yourself.
