the things we carry and the things we left behind

the thing that made me the most upset about the letter forests gf gave me was this tone/summary:

this is sent out of pity because you are a loser, how dare you turn down a friendship with me. i am a saint and so nice, but you are a fucking loser and i hate you and p.s. i'm better than you in every way ever.

i don't want pity from anyone, especially not her, especially out of the blue. i don't even know what she looks like. i don't even care about that part of my life anymore.

i am not a victim and i don't respond well to being treated like one. there is a huge difference between sympathy/pity and empathy. mainly communication and real connection and understanding.
