I'm embarrassed to post this but the more I think about things the more I figure I'm not half as embarrassed as she is/ was because of my actions. I thought a lot about what to say. I thought about all the things that happened that I felt like at the time made me act and feel the way I did. When all the smoke clears though that's all just an excuse. It doesn't really matter what Emma did or didn't do to me. The only thing that really matters is my actions. I let myself get to a bad place. I'm ashamed of the way I acted. My Grandma, my Mother and my sister as well as my current girlfriend I'm sure are all disappointed in me too. Regardless of whatever caused me to get there I still acted like a child and I really don't much deserve to be forgiven. With that being said I just wanted to share Emma's story. Our story. She deserves that. Even though this happened some time ago I'm sure it's still just as hard for her now as it was when it happened. I broke things off and I'm not saying that to look good. I broke things off because I became someone that I wasn't proud of and I finally saw the person I was being. I've worked hard on being better and I've been seeing someone for a long while. Emma and I co-exhisted in the gym after this and hopefully after we broke up she didn't feel uncomfortable on the team. My team doesn't deserve any hate. Heath is a good man. He's done so many things for people and asks for nothing in return ever. I just don't want anyone cutting them down for my actions. I know it doesn't make things right. I know it doesn't change the past. I hope Emma finds the healing she needs and I wish her the best. I'm sorry to her, her supporters who were there for her (because I added stress and hurt to
their lives too). My team and everyone else it hurt. I'll continue trying to be a better man and a better example now and in the future."
