As a Leeb, It would be because I have been soul searching and things haven't panned out the way I have expected in life and I go back to where I was feeling good about things and that is you. You are what I regret letting go of and yes I have thought this through in my mind endlessly on how to try and win you back...I give it my last best shot but if you don't succumb I pick my self respect back up and keep moving...
You must have meant a lot to her for her to swallow her pride and try this.
