So, I've come to the decision that this will be my last year on this planet. However, I'm not against the idea of recovery but, I don't deserve it.
So, for a little bit of background, I fell in love in 2020 with the most amazing woman I have ever met. I still think about her,
however, early the next year I went to prison, and she stayed with me through most of the incarceration.
I actually got out for 13 days in 2021, however I was struggling to find any footing that December and needless to say, I was extremely stressed. On top of that I was divorced by my ex wife of 12 years during my time out.
Well, I found out... that there was a lot of cheating and I snapped. Everything just broke in me, and I treated her like shit during most of our time together
and I even struck her with a door in my carelessness, It was not on purpose, I was going to leave because I was having an anxiety attack and she was behind the door,
but given the circumstances, I understand why she doesn't believe me. Anyway... she eventually broke up with me and I did my sentence.

I started talking with her recently because I have never felt this way about anyone else, and at the very least I want to see or hear her voice one more time before
I end my life. She's told me a lot of her reasonings for why she did what she did and I've come to realize that I really hurt her and said A LOT of terrible things that still bother her.
I have had several relationships since her, I even had a woman sell me a car that I was dating, so I know it's not about what this woman can do for me, I love HER for HER.
From her giggle to little quirks. And I hate being honest with myself, because I know that I'm not capable of loving anyone half as much as I still love her.
I remember the little things like her singing in the shower, and it kills me... my brain never shuts off.
I would move the heavens and the earth for her, just to see her smile again. But, I said heartless and pretty cruel things. And well, frankly,
I don't deserve her.
And I wish I wasn't still waiting for this check that's coming within 6 or 8 weeks, so I could just hang myself and stop being such a worthless stain.
In my whole existence I was only happy being with her and making her smile and laugh. Our love making transcended physical pleasures that were even greater than my best Mushroom trip.
I don't want to tell her directly, but even if she doesn't want to see me again, I have to drop off some money for her because she bailed me out and that still keeps me up at night. I fucked up in so many ways, and if there's one person on the planet who's opinion I care about it's hers.
I wanted to post this partially to vent, but also partially to be a part of the community before I go.
I'm scared of getting older, and I'm scared of never seeing her again. And I guess, I'm an idiot hoping for a miracle.
I really can't go on living if no one believes in me anymore. I need to make this right. But, I know deep down, that I'm already dead
and that no one gives a single fuck if I dropped dead tonight.

*I was told that this doesn't belong in recovery, so I'm posting it here.

Bad people never believe themselves to be bad. You understood what had happened and took responsibility for how you hurt her, not everyone can do that.

Good and bad are subjective, but if you ask me I truly believe that bad people wouldn't do what you have done. A bad person wouldn't feel this pain you are experiencing. You are deserving of recovery in my opinion.

I appreciate that. However, I have done far worse to other people, and I was a fucking monster. She however was someone that I made a promise to protect, I swore to myself and to her that if anyone ever hurts her I'd kill them. And sure enough... it was me.
I really need redemption. I don't deserve it, but I crave her smile. I miss her voice and I am not afraid to express it.

I'd sell my soul just to hold her in my arms again.
And well, she's shared with me that she's been hurt by other people,
and if I don't step up, she's going to keep finding herself in the same situations being hurt.
I don't think I'm anyone's knight in shining armor, but one thing I am is one intelligent motherfucker.

If you have any advice or what to say, or how I can show her I'm worth it, lmk.
