When you asked me to marry you… I didn’t say no because I didn’t want to. I said no because I didn’t want the life I was living. I didn’t want that for either of us. You deserve better, but so do I. I’m not asking you to wait for me, Jackson, but I want you to know I’m trying. I’m trying to take back my life and trying to figure out who I am. I want to know who I am when I’m not stuck trying to survive.
