She probably was, at the time. But the fact that you’re aware of it is a very significant difference.

Jackie sounds a little bit like me.

Only much younger, and having seen less of the world than I have (presently)…

A long time ago you told me very precisely: Jacquelyn is too formal, Jacqui is too weird, Jacky is too dikey, and Jackie is just right. I’ll never forget that.

These letters were a way for me to have closure in my relationships. They’re things I’ve always wanted to say and it felt good for me to be able to express myself. I never meant for you to change or be affected by this or even read this, but I think it shows that you’ve come a long way if you’re taking it to heart.

You know, you spelled my name wrong.
How surreal this whole thing is, I didn’t comment on it the first time I read it because well that’s just awkward, but now that its buried in the archives and the annals of time, I will comment. Reading this kind of insight really helps me out as an individual trying to learn & grow from mistakes. This kind of look, from someone else’s perspective is so hard to get. I appreciate the honesty, and regret the jerkitude that I bestowed.

I agree…it’s not just her vocals that can be so crazy and unrestrained, it’s her great lyrics too.

That makes perfect sense to me now, but I assure you, at the time I was very confused and upset.

As the saying goes, hindsight is 20/20.

Leave in the middle of a game cause she thought she might lose? Something tells me it’s your head that’s right on this one, my friend. Never underestimate the lure of out-of-reach. It totally skews the value of everything.
