Apology Letters to Girlfriend.
Not Being Present During Our Late-Night Talk

Mahi, I'm so sorry I wasn't there when you wanted to talk last night. I assumed you might want to sleep instead of checking in, and that assumption was my mistake. I should have asked, I should have paused what I was doing, and I should have been present for you. I know that made you feel lonely and like I wasn't making time for you, and that hurts me to imagine. You are my favorite person to talk to, and the last thing I want is for you to doubt how much I care or how important our time together is to me. There are no excuses — I took the easy route of assuming and I let you down. To make sure this doesn't happen again, I'm going to do three concrete things: 1) check in with a quick text before I assume you're sleeping, 2) put away distractions when we're talking so I'm actually present, and 3) set aside dedicated time for our late-night talks and morning check-ins so you always know I'm available when you need me. If you want something different, tell me and I'll follow through. Please forgive me for being disconnected last night. When you're ready, I'd like to listen to how it felt for you and make this right. I love you so much and I want to be the person you can always reach.
