Already decoded. Here's what they actually meant, the specific words doing the damage, and three replies ranked by what we'd send.

Ex

i miss us

Missing the good parts only

What they actually meant

Notice it's us, not you. They miss the version of things where they were comfortable, which isn't the same as missing the work it would take to fix it. Real ones name what they'd do differently.

How loaded this is · not in your head

Replies you can send
