I think you misunderstood or you are putting words into my mouth.
I want to be honest with her, and whatever relationship I might have with
her in future (whether romantic or just friends; and my aim would be to remain at least
good friends), I am simply quite sure that the first words, the first impression after all this time apart... will count a lot.
What I am saying is:
before being able to apologize and talk openly and honestly, I need a tool to get her to
listen to me. According to the way she has behaved so far, I fear that whatever I say she might just delete it from her attention field and avoid all my words with full indifference.
I need to get past that barrier in order to be able to talk to her and apologize.
