Dear T,

I've been hurt really, really, bad by someone close. I mean I literally could barely function because of what was done to me. This person turned their back on me when I needed an explanation for what they had done. Now I think, but I'm not sure, that they may be ready to apologize. Do you think I should listen to what they have to say? I don't know why they would be apologizing now? I mean do you think they "suddenly" found empathy? Do you think they suddenly came to realize what they did was wrong? Do you think this person didn't know the impact of what they had done to me, let's say 2 years ago? I'm suspicious. I still don't think they really understand or even care about what was done to me. I can't understand people who have no conscience.
