I appreciate the offer, and you're welcome to if you like. But it's okay if you don't. This whole experience has been incredibly emotionally draining for me and I seriously considering just throwing in the towel at this point, so I can start to move on and plan my next step.
It would be one thing if I were actually getting responses, boilerplate or not, but I've been getting nothing. It's like I wake up every morning and spend an hour writing out these long heartfelt messages, pleading with them while I'm fighting back tears, only to have them just seemingly get lost in a void somewhere. It's discouraging and it's upsetting. I can't do it anymore.
