K,

I've thought about this carefully, 

and I want to go to Northshore. 

I believe it's the right decision for my career, and for myself. 

I know this may not be what you have planned, 

but I'm asking you to support this decision and help me make it happen. 

I'll take responsibility for my choice and whatever comes with it. 

Please let me take this opportunity.

Help me in relocation if you can.

K,

I've spent a lot of time thinking about this, and I need to be honest with both you and myself.

I've decided that I want to go to Northshore instead of Atlanta.

This isn't a decision against you. It's a decision for myself.

Right now, I need a place where I can rebuild my confidence, learn to make my own decisions, and grow into the person I want to become. 

I don't want my future to begin from fear, dependence, or the pressure of making everyone else comfortable before I'm honest with myself.

I know this decision will disappoint you, make you hate me, get angry on me, and I understand there may be consequences. 

I'm choosing it knowing all that. 

I'd rather live with the consequences of making my own decision than the regret of ignoring what my heart has been telling me.

I care about you, and I genuinely wish you nothing but happiness. 

But I need you to respect this choice and let me walk this path.

If our paths are meant to meet again, they will. If not, I'll still be grateful for the good moments we shared.

Please don't try to convince me otherwise. 

I've made this decision after a lot of reflection, and I need you to let me go forward.

Today, I am choosing to stop running from that truth.

Today, I am choosing myself.

I sincerely wish you the very best for your future.
