So yeah this is pretty typical with drunk emails... that being said...
A lot of times unintentional meanings come out in drunk/uninhibited sharing of our thoughts and feelings and what I get out of this is that she was unhappy with things for quite some time and from the words she uses, she hasn't felt like you were satisfied with her for awhile. The "are you happy now" I know is about you not feeling closure but at the same time its probably pretty typical of what she thought prior to this email too. Like she didn't feel like she ever lived up to some high bar you held out as expectation. This is how I read what she's saying.
on PC its easy for us to post our perspectives on a situation that involves ourselves and our mate or ex/mate. Thing is I'm glad you posted the email because it gives more insight to things a bit more than just your "version" of it. I am not implying that you are not accurately depicting things as you see them but that no singular perspective is entirely accurate.
The fact that she mentions she's "struggling" and that it's "weird" being alone and goes on to say that she's sorry for everything she put you through. Again, one can assume this is about the break up but reading a bit deeper, it seems to me she feels that she has been under the impression she has put you through a lot over the years too. yes, it's an assumption but not one out of left field when in context you put all that she said into one story.
"does it make you feel better I'm a cold hearted b**ch?" That speaks volumes to her impression of how you feel or felt about her over the years. I am not saying you are in the wrong here but speaking of her feelings and perspective on things. I doubt that it comes from out of nowhere, but only you can be honest about things with yourself and how or why she might say something like that. Why would she think that you'd feel better that she's a cold hearted b*? Something to ponder.
"is this what you wanted... me miserable... floundering without you..." This to me implies that over the years you've wanted her to need you more than she did. That in the dynamic of the relationship you felt you were the caretaker and did a lot for her and she was incapable of doing for herself.
Without more information, there is no way to understand why she left and what went on. YOU know better than anyone. Typically a break up is not only one person's fault but some of both involved.
either you really don't know how or why this happened and you should consider that, so that going forward you know what to look for in a woman if you choose to do that and also what you need to work on yourself, or... you do know what happened, are pleading for comfort even though you made mistakes yourself and deep inside knew this was coming or you're in denial that you're responsible for some of the problems that led up to this. You tell me.
Things to think about though. For you, I am sorry it ended. I know that's hard to deal with anyway but you gotta just move on honestly because regardless of the reasons, she's clearly finished with you.

I shouldn't have ever posted the email to begin with, everything she was talking about in the email she wasnt referring to over the years we were together.. she was refer to since we had split up...She was lashing out at me.... I never held held her to any high standard while we were together...the cold hearted b@tch thing I never EVER thought of her that way or called her that in the years we were together, it doesn't make me feel better that she thinks that I think she is one...she was referring again to since we had broken up....When she says she struggling, she means since I left, trying to pay all the bills on her own on one income, take care of the house, do all the things I used to do, that she didnt have to do when I was there, When she says she is sorry for what she put me through she means the hurt she has put me through during the break up....The miserable and floundering comment she was finally admitting she was having a tough time, because she was playing so tough and acting like she was doing so well... and getting along so great...She finally admitted she was having a tough time...I did do a lot for her, over the years, but I did it because I wanted to, Everything I did for her was to make her happy and because I wanted to do it...If she was happy I was happy....Not that I owe any explainations, but No I didnt know it was coming and I didnt know why it happened, it did take me completely by surprise....and like I said other then She needed to find herself, or had grown away from me. and couldnt find herself with me there thats the only explaination I got....but yeah I dont need anyone to explain to me that she is clearly finished with me...I got that...Im having a hard enough time dealing with this as is...thanks for the input...
