'My ex sent me a letter apologising for cheating on me and I sent it back graded'


An American student now wishes he hadn’t marked his ex-girlfriend’s apology letter and shared it on Twitter.

He gave the four-page handwritten note a D- grade, scoring it 61 out of 100.

Nick Lutz, who studied at the University of Central Florida, criticised his ex for her long introduction, repetitive content, and lack of evidence to support her claim that she never cheated on him.

In the margins, Nick wrote suggestions in red ink, such as asking for more details when his ex said: “I took all the promises we had and then broke them.”

He also corrected her spelling of “loose” to “lose”. At the end, he summarised his thoughts.

“Long intro, short conclusion, strong hypothesis but nothing to back it up. Details are important,” he penned.

He continued: “If you wanted to be believed, back it up with proof. You claimed cheating never occurred but place blame on yourself, then what for? Need to stop contradicting your own story and pick a side.

“While this gesture is appreciated, I would prefer details over statistics. Revision for half credit will be accepted. Good luck.”

Although he felt a “little guilty” about sharing his critique on Twitter, Nick said he didn’t believe the letter was sincere, given his ex’s history of lying to him.

He revealed to the BBC’s Newsbeat: “It came to an end after she told me she was going to a theme park with her best friend, who’s a girl, but I later found out she went with a dude.

“I haven’t spoken to her since this happened but I am not planning on talking to her anytime soon.”

The post has had almost four million views on X (formerly Twitter) and received over 1,200 comments.

One user wrote: “LMAOO reading this whole thing, she sounded sorry for herself more than she did feel sorry for hurting you. She’s just trying to save face.”
