Dear S

I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and I have come to a decision. I can’t be near you right now. I have to go away for a while and think. This has all gotten so intense and confusing. I hope you understand that I don’t necessarily want to end things. I am not leaving you in that sense. I have never felt the way I feel about you before and it really is freaking me out.

I think a few days away from everything will allow me to think and get back to where I feel like myself. I won’t tell you where I’m going because I don’t want you to come after me. Please don’t feel like you have to, I’ll be fine. I will write you when I get there. Please know that I do love you. I want to say this isn’t about you, but that’s not really true. It’s about us, and you are part of that. None of this is your fault is a better way to put things. You have been so fantastic, but we’re moving so fast and that scares me. Please understand.

Love, D
