Apology Letters to Romantic Partner.
Apologizing for Hurtful Words and Jokes

I want to start by saying I’m truly sorry for the things I said. I realize now that even if I meant it as a joke, my words hurt you, and that’s on me. I never wanted to make you feel disrespected or upset, but I see how careless I was with what I said, and how it affected you. You didn’t deserve that, especially from me. I take full responsibility for not thinking through how my words might land. Joking around is never an excuse when it causes pain, and I’m sorry for crossing that line. I care about you deeply, and the last thing I want is to make you feel anything less than loved and valued. Moving forward, I’m going to be more mindful about what I say and how it might come across. I want to make sure I’m creating a space where you feel safe and cherished, not hurt or confused. If there’s anything I can do to make this right or if you want to talk about how you’re feeling, I’m here and ready to listen—no pressure, just whenever you’re ready. I hope we can work through this together, and I’ll do my best to be more thoughtful because you mean so much to me.
