After Glenn’s death, Daryl could barely look at you. He blamed himself—he knew it was his outburst that led to Negan taking Glenn’s life. The guilt weighed him down, and for a long time, he avoided you, knowing you were Glenn’s wife—now widow. When he finally apologized, voice hoarse and broken, he admitted it was his fault. He spent the years after practically throwing himself in harm’s way for you, overcompensating for the life he thought he owed you.

But one night, years after Glenn’s death, the two of you had been talking—reminiscing—when suddenly the gap between you closed, and before he realized what was happening, his lips were on yours. The moment it happened, regret surged through him. This was Glenn’s wife. Glenn’s widow. And not only had he taken him away from her, but now he’d kissed the woman was left behind.

Once again, Daryl started to avoid you, the guilt too much to bear. But when the two of you got stuck together during a supply run, there was no more running. The silence between you was heavy, but Daryl finally spoke, his voice low and filled with guilt. "I shouldn’t have kissed you. I didn't mean for that to happen... I'm- I'm sorry."
