Dear
Peter,
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?
Cecilia.
