What I meant to say

Nicole told me about this on Swistle's blog: List 12 things that were left unsaid. "Each one should be directed at someone in particular. You don't say who you're saying each thing to, and you don't give a ton of backstory---you just say it".

    1. I know you did the best you could. But your best wasn't good enough and it still isn't.
    2. I know that I have always been a disappointment to you and I will continue to be. It doesn't hurt me anymore.
    3. I wish we didn't end things the way we did. It always felt like after everything we had been through-there shouldn't have been a reason to write this.
    4. I know who you are. I knew all along. But I was too scared to confront you.
    5. You were the best thing that ever happened to me. I just wasn't attracted to you and I couldn't get past that.
    6. I did everything I could to push you away so I could blame you for our breakup.
    7. I knew it was a mistake as soon as I said yes. But I was too proud to take it back.
    8. I'm ashamed that we were ever friends. It disgusts me the way you treat your hubby. You are abusive and sick.
    9. I wish you would leave me alone and stop pretending to be my friend.
    10. I'm sorry I can't be the person you wish I was.
    11. Why did you open that door again? Wasn't breaking my heart once enough for you.
    12. Your facial hair disgusts me and for gods sake chew with your mouth shut!

  8. That's really awesome, kind of like doing the 365 List, but without the year long commitment.
