Apology Letters to Romantic Partner.
Not Asking for Permission

I'm truly sorry for not telling you about my decision and for not asking for your permission first. I realize now how that must have made you feel disrespected and undervalued in our relationship. You deserved to be included in that conversation, and I can see how my choice to act without consulting you created distance between us. I take full responsibility for my actions and understand that they may have shaken your trust in me. It was thoughtless and unfair, and I regret not considering how it would affect you. You mean so much to me, and I should have honored our partnership by keeping you in the loop. To make things right, I’m committed to improving my communication and ensuring that I involve you in decisions that impact us both. I want us to be a team, and that means sharing not just the outcomes but also the process. I’ll also take time to reflect on why I made that choice and how I can avoid similar mistakes in the future. I respect that you might need some time to process this, and I’m here whenever you’re ready to talk. I value our relationship deeply and genuinely hope we can work through this together.
