I wrote this on Sunday afternoon and decided not to post it...but after thinking about it I have changed my mind. I have not heard from the person in question and doubt that I will but I am still posting it. Credit where credit is due, is a popular motto of mine.If I end up looking the fool, then so be it.
Sunday...February 5th
Dear------(the lovely man I met last night)
I want to thank you with all my heart for restoring my faith in men. I know this may sound a bit dramatic but I don't think you realise just what you have done for me. In the space of a few short hours, you managed to undo so much of the damage in my life, which for the very first time I felt no need to explain in an attempt to justify myself.... and completely wiped out the permanent negative thoughts I have of men in general. This was because I felt so comfortable with you because you treated me with total respect.
For this, I have to thank you. I have written a lot of letters to men in my life, letters filled with hurt and confusion, but have never written one quite like this, nor did I ever think I would!
To be in the company of a person like you was quite overwhelming for me and I can't quite get my head round it, but all I know is that it was a special for me.
If I never see you again, then that is fine. If you didn't feel anything, that is also fine. The truth is, you inspired me...I think that is what I am trying to say.
Polite, respectful, generous, funny, affectionate, caring....hold on tight to these qualities you have in abundance.
I won't pursue you, or bother you....but what I will do is treasure the experience.
If this is what it is like to "feel", then I have truly missed out in my life.
