Dear …….

Thankyou for your very kind email…and planing.
Most of all I appreciate  the time you have spent  , the ideas you have shared , your willingness to spend  time with me this weekend and take me in  to your home. Time is our most valuable commodity.
Although arguably not a poor man  money is  a limited resource so without being cheap I always conserve with the expectation that by doing such  one will always be functionally wealthy. With that said I look forward  to seeing you on friday  and if for any reason  either of us feels more comfortable…. any second thoughts no matter how trivial  a hotel will be within the 2009 budget. In terms of jeoporady I feel that we have established a connection which is  the root of a long term special friendship. . I do not  know what this friendship will entail, or the time course it will evolve.  We may be  destined to  be casual sculpture discussing acquaintances  or perhaps in spite of geographic challenges we will want it all ….  This  we won’t jeopardize.  Sorry to be reporting to Ca slightly out of commission…I prize vitality …
Looking forward to friday. hope to speak with you later  today .
My Best,
……….

BTW; Please no special shoping in advance. I will look forward to seeing the stores with  and ? the harbor?

OK.  Hi There.  Rough email.  The last thing I have wanted to do is hurt your soul.  This is best.  You are an amazing, amazing, sexy, smart, funny, beautiful, intoxicating woman.  I am in awe of you.  I am not worthy of your attention as a guy who needs to figure out his own issues.

I am not trying to be trite.  I am trying to be your friend.  I don’t want to be your asshole friend from a distance.  I have had no choice from my own emotions but to think about this for the last several weeks and see if there’s some way to be your platonic friend for now.  I still don’t know if there is.  I think about you all the time.  I lie awake at night thinking about you.  I am a strong-willed man and I know that the sight of you, the smell of you, the sound of your voice is enough to prompt me to actions with you that start things that I can’t finish.

I am sorry that it’s the holidays and I’m not being a good visible friend.

Please don’t be sad.  Be pissed if you want to.  I’d rather you weren’t.

I hope you’re having a decent christmas.  Too much family intrusion for me. I’ll tell you about it one of these days.  I know that I am indebted to you for quality time, passion, and explanation.  I will find a way to make it up to you one day soon, ok.  Take care.
