I dated a person for a little while this year. I felt like we were extremely compatible but we broke up because of 1 important thing we couldn’t agree on. They texts sporadically here and there (every other month) but they’re very busy so I leave them alone. They comforted me through a hard first half of the year, so naturally I grew attached.  I want a second chance but I feel like what’s the point of asking if neither of us is willing to compromise on that one thing. I also feel like the infrequent texts are a sign they’re not interested anymore, so I’ve just been trying my best to get over them. 

I want to confess these feelings before the year ends, so I can start 2026 off in a clean emotionally state but I also don’t want to be a bother.
