I want a man who knows what love is all about. You are
generous, kind, thoughtful. People who are not like you admit to being useless
and inferior. You have ruined me for other men. I yearn for you. I have no
feelings whatsoever when we’re apart. I can be forever happy – will you let me
be yours?

Yours,
Gwen
