i want to sincerely apologise to everyone who was hurt by my words and by the situation that followed.

i’m making this post from the same account where this conflict first began, and i feel that there is something meaningful about using this space to bring it to a close. i hope this can be a step toward leaving the past behind and moving forward on better terms.

looking back, i recognise that some of the things i said were rude and unnecessarily harsh. i should have expressed myself in a more respectful and considerate way, regardless of how frustrated i may have felt at the time. my feelings or intentions do not excuse the way i chose to express them, and i sincerely apologise for being rude and for the hurt my words caused.
i understand that words can have a real impact on others, even when hurting someone is not the intention. i should have been more mindful of how i communicated, and i take responsibility for the things i wrote and the way i expressed myself. i’m sorry to everyone who felt insulted, targeted, or uncomfortable because of my words.
i never wanted to make anyone feel unwelcome or uncomfortable in this community. i understand, however, that my intentions don’t erase the impact of my behaviour, and i don’t want to use them as an excuse. i recognise that i could have handled the situation differently, and i will do my best to be more thoughtful, respectful, and careful with my words going forward.
i know that an apology cannot undo what has already happened, and that rebuilding trust takes time. im not writing this to argue about the past or dismiss anyone’s feelings.
im writing because i want to acknowledge my mistakes, sincerely apologise for my rudeness, and learn from this experience.

im truly sorry to everyone i hurt through my words and behaviour. i hope we can leave this conflict in the past and move forward with a better understanding of one another.
