The message you can't make yourself send

You have something to say and every version of it comes out wrong, or never comes out at all. Tell me the situation in plain words, messy is fine. I write one short message you can send as yourself, under 120 words, in your voice and not mine. Two revisions are included if a line doesn't sound like you. Delivered here on the order page as text within 2 days of payment. Good for: coming back after a long silence, telling someone you're not okay, saying no without dressing it up, telling a friend something that will land hard. Not for: legal or medical advice, negotiating money, anything that needs to reach a stranger on your behalf.

hey. i've been the one not answering, and i know that's the part that stings. i don't have a good reason. i have a bad one: i didn't know how to come back without explaining, and i couldn't explain. you don't owe me a warm welcome. i'd just like the door not to be shut.

i'm going to say this once and then let it sit. i'm not okay, and i've been answering "fine" because i didn't want to be the reason a good evening got heavy. you don't have to fix it. i just didn't want to be carrying it alone and pretending i wasn't.

no. i've thought about it and the answer isn't changing. i know that's not what you wanted from me. i'm not going to dress it up, and i'm not going to disappear on you either.
