Dear {Name},
I'm sorry for what I said about {Name}. When I said {negative thing}, I felt like I was following your lead as you vented about your relationship. I should have stayed open to the possibility that you would get back together.
It wasn't my place to weigh in, especially with such deeply personal assessments. In retrospect, I was amplifying what I thought you wanted to hear. I don't really think {Name} is {negative quality}.
Believe me, I have learned my lesson. I won't have anything else negative to say about your ex, regardless of the status of your relationship. I wish you both the best in the future.
Sincerely,
{Name}
