Read Me When We Have An Argument

Dear You,

In the wake of our argument, a silence hangs between us, heavy with words left unsaid and emotions unexpressed. It's in these moments of discord that the fabric of our connection feels most fragile, yet also reveals its strength. This letter is an olive branch, an attempt to bridge the gap that has momentarily formed between us, with the hope of understanding, forgiveness, and healing.

Acknowledgment: First, I want to acknowledge the argument itself. Disagreements are a natural part of any relationship, but they should never be the defining aspect. What matters most is how we navigate these turbulent waters and emerge, ideally, stronger on the other side.

Apology: If my words or actions have hurt you, I am truly sorry. It's important to me that you know this. My intention was never to cause pain. In the heat of the moment, we can sometimes lose sight of the impact of our words, and for that, I take responsibility.

Understanding: I seek to understand your perspective better. I realize that every story has more than one side, and I want to hear yours. Understanding begins with listening, and I am here, ready to listen, to learn, and to see things through your eyes.

Communication: Let's use this as an opportunity to strengthen our communication. Where there was misunderstanding, let us build clarity. Where there was hurt, let us offer healing words. Our dialogue is the bridge back to one another, and every word we choose can be a step towards reconciliation.

Reflection: I've taken time to reflect on our argument, trying to understand the underlying issues and how we might address them moving forward. This reflection is ongoing, and I welcome your thoughts and feelings in this process.

Forgiveness: I ask for your forgiveness, as I also offer mine. Holding onto anger or resentment serves only to widen the gap between us. Let us instead choose forgiveness, not as a sign of weakness, but as a testament to the strength of our bond.

Commitment: I am committed to making things right between us. Let this argument not be a wedge that drives us apart but a reminder of the importance of patience, understanding, and love in our relationship.

Love: Above all, remember that my love for you is unwavering. It's the steady ground beneath our feet, even when we lose our balance. Our argument does not diminish my affection for you; if anything, it reinforces my desire to nurture our connection and to ensure it thrives.

Let's come back together, not with the intention of picking up where we left off before the argument, but with the aim of moving forward, enriched by the lessons we've learned. Here's to healing, to growing, and to loving each other better, with every day that passes.

With all my heart,
Jordan Spring
