this letter to Mary:
We’ve
talked on the phone and in my apartment, and now I'm writing this letter. Maybe
if I put my thoughts and feelings in writing, you’ll understand them better.
I love you.
I want to marry you. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. You are the
most wonderful woman I have ever met. You are not a "load." You are not a
"troublemaker."
Yes, you
have problems. So do I. And together, we can solve these problems more easily
than if we were apart. Problems are a part of life. But so is happiness. Let’s
share our problems and happiness instead of experiencing them alone.
We are not
a bad "fit." We are a perfect match. I do not look down on you. I look up to
you. I admire you. I think you are smart, brave, and independent. Don’t tell me
to go find another woman. I don’t want another woman. I have found the perfect
woman.
Every day,
I think about your beautiful smile, your happy laugh. I think about the long
walks we used to take, holding hands all the way. Remember how we used to sit on
the grass in the park and watch the parrots?
We were
going to get married, and now you want to be "just friends." Whatever I did or
said that was wrong, please tell me so we can work this out. I don’t want to
lose you.
