I was able to screenshot & trascribe most of it. I did my best anyway

Dear Travis,
Hey, there. I feel like sharing this with you. Its been a bit of a sore subject for both of us in the past and sometimes continues to be but I hope you'll understand where I am coming from. I really hope you can stretch your mind and heart for this and put yourself in my shoes for the moment. Im not saying you have to stay there, nor do you have to agree with me, but I think if you give it an honest and sincere effort you will surely understand the way I feel, and why I sometimes feel this way.
I know the tone of an email or text message can sometimes be ambiguous (?) since the receiver is only interpreting what the tone of the sender would be if it were spoken, so please know that the spirit in which I send this is that of love, _____ and ____ (friendship).
Here goes...
I realized after further ____ why it is that I asked you to give me a little mention in your next post as credit for the task of editing and grammar and typing the lengthy thing out. Partly it is ____. You gave your friend Katie a mention, and that was just for the __. Logically, I am your friend, too. Your first chapter is at length much longer, and so being the human that I am, it would make me feel good to have a little recognition thrown my way. But I guess deeper than that I know that I should be over this by now and on __ levels (?) . I am really, but I feel that I never got the proper "credit" or recognition I deserved as your girlfriend. You say it was because you are a ____ [private?] person. You say it was because of Deanna. You say it was because you were rather attached to the reputation of being a single, eligible bachelor. I understand all of that. I really do, and thats ok . I dont harbor bad feelings over any of that stuff. Im serious. You may be asking yourself why then the lengthy email detailing all of this if that is the case? Well, its a good thing this is in "writing" because if that is your opinion it has already been __ in the first paragraph of this email. Refer back to it if you wish. But my cry for a little recognition comes from a place within me that __ it was never adequately __ in that, I thirsted to be validated not just as some girl friend that you associated with, but as your girlfriend. I wasnt asking you to give me credit for all of your __ no. If it had anything to do with that than it was only a very tiny part. If at all. Though I was beginning to wonder if you were going to be the type to subscribe to the philosophy that behind every great man there is a great woman ( I think that philosophy is a two way street, by the way).
I know he still would have had his religious problems with that, but a girl that freaky who also was supposed to be such a Mormon is just a huge red flag.
