Drew Carey on the text his ex-fiancée sent days before her death
In a world driven by urgency and distractions, we often forget how fleeting life can be — how a single message, a few short words, or an unrealized meeting can carry the weight of everything left unsaid. Such is the case in a deeply emotional story that recently surfaced, reminding us all of the power of love, timing, and closure — even when that closure doesn’t come in the way we expect.
It began with a simple text.
“I got a text from her. She said, ‘I would love to get together with you and talk.’”
The voice that recounts this memory cracks slightly — the pain still fresh. There’s a glimmer of hope in the retelling, the kind of hope we cling to when bridges long burned suddenly seem crossable again.
“And I said, ‘Yeah, I would love to do that. I love you.’”
These weren’t just polite responses. These were words heavy with years of distance, unresolved feelings, and a desire to reconnect — not just socially, but spiritually and emotionally. A rekindling of something that had once mattered deeply.
But life doesn’t always wait.
The reunion never happened.
When asked if he was sad he never got that chance, the pause said everything. Then quietly, and almost painfully, came the answer:
“I never got it. I never got a chance to do it.”
And then, a deeper truth surfaced — one that both haunts and heals.
“But she did love you.”
“That’s the big solace I get from it… that she loved me. And I’m glad I could get that message to her before she died.”
It’s hard to describe the weight of such a moment. Two souls, once close, separated by time, regret, and possibly circumstance, had reached out across the void in a final attempt to say what mattered. And while the meeting was lost to fate, something far more eternal remained: love acknowledged, and love returned.
There’s something universally human about this story. Many of us have people in our past — friends, lovers, family — with whom we’ve lost touch. We imagine one day reaching out, just to say, “I still think about you,” or “I’m sorry,” or simply, “I love you.” We assume there will be time.
But sometimes, time runs out.
What makes this story powerful isn’t just the sadness of the missed opportunity, but the quiet triumph in the fact that love still found its way — even if only through a few texts. In the end, the unspoken was spoken, and the most important message — “I love you” — was heard.
We often underestimate the power of saying what we feel while we still can. In our daily routines, we hold back, we delay, or we convince ourselves that the other person already knows. But maybe they don’t. Maybe they need to hear it — today.
This story is a gentle, heartbreaking reminder that it’s never too soon to reach out. A single message can be a lifeline, a healing balm, or a final gift before goodbye.
As we reflect on the emotions in this story, we are left with a lesson: say it now. Say “I love you,” say “I’m sorry,” say “I miss you.” Whether in person, over the phone, or in a text — say it. Because even if time takes away the meeting, it cannot erase the message.
In the end, love — once expressed — lives on.
And that may be the greatest solace of all.
