Hey! This is going to sound weird, but I dated a mutual of ours and there's a lot to unpack, especially since he was vehemently against me following you (even though I enjoyed your work). I had a different username at the time and actually deleted that account so he no longer has access to contact me. I wanted to know how much of that time was a lie, so I wanted to reach out and say 1) I'm so sorry for believing a word he said and being afraid of reaching out and being a friend, 2) I can give you my handle if you'd prefer to take this to a dm, and 3) if you'd rather not, that's fine too.
