TEAM CHANGE!!

It's not easy or pretty but it happens. Borderline is a tough disorder that's especially tough on friends and family. This guy thinks his actions came from a place of love for his ex, and that that somehow excuses him. That's the story he's telling himself, and he needs a new one. Sounds like a weekend at Landmark would sort it all out.

Sarcasm aside, what comes through in that rambling letter is that he's begun to realize he's an asshole. If he can move from being a predator to realizing he's acted predatory and needs a timeout, why can't he continue to move in a positive direction? In a few months he might look back on that letter with shame and disgust. Hopefully this doesn't prompt him to write another rambling mess of a public statement. A journal entry would be better.
