To -----

I'm sorry you haven't met my witty self. I c.an be fun too, you know. And interesting.

And interested.

Anyway, I should have stopped blabbering about myself and asked more questions about you. That's the advise old women gave on how to charm a man. I forgot about that. (I've been forgetting a lot of things lately, really important ones like my nephew's birthday, my parent's anniversary, the topsecret plans in my job, my common sense, my middle name...)

If I could start over, I should have said, "Oh, that's wonderful (what you do)! So how do you do (this) and (that) and that must be so exciting, don't you think?" The old women say men like their egos fluffed up like pillows every now and then. I'd do that gladly, but only when there's enough fluff in the pillow.

Then we could have ended spending the rest of the night having a gabfest in a cozy cafe until 3 in the morning, instead of writing this letter you'd never get to read.

Story of my life. Another one got away.

S.M.
