i am the bad guy. I’ve gone my whole life thinking I’m a victim of the whole “nice guys finish last” type scenario. But that’s not it. I’m not a nice guy. I’m a worthless prick. I deserve what I’ve been given, because I hurt people. And being hurt myself did not give me an excuse to do that. So I apologize to the people I hurt. You’ll never see this apology, never know that I’m saying sorry, but it’s out there in the ether now. I hope it comes to you in some way.

My story has a very similar ending… It took me a very long time to admit this to myself, but never got to admit it to the people I hurt. I admire ur silent bravery
Yes, you may have hurt people, but that does not make you a hopeless prick. It makes you human, and imperfect, but thankfully we all have the capacity to change and grow, and by acknowledging your mistakes you have taken the first step.
That’s great!
You cannot change the past, but the future is all yours, you might be able to apologize in person, make up for the hurt, or if that’s impossible, just do something really nice for someone else who really needs it.
