Drunken Boyfriends

Hi again, Svetlana.

Your pictures are very nice, and I very much enjoyed looking at them.

About your drunken boyfriend: I promise you that I will never hit you. I’ll never raise my voice against you, neither in volume, nor in meaning. You’ll never hear me call you a bad name or put you down in public or in private. If you would hurt me, I’ll cry, and maybe get a bit angry. But I would never abuse you. These are my most sacred rules for dating women. Also, I do not drink. Not at all. I gave it up completely two years ago ’cause it made me tired for days after a party, and it interfered with my creativity in writing. So it had to go. Thus, you’ll never have to worry about how I behave when I drink, because I won’t ever touch the stuff again.

Yes, I’m starting to look forward to messages from you as well. And yes. Perhaps the distance between us will help intensify our feelings for one another. After all, nothing good ever comes easy, does it? As the song says: “Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues. And you know it don’t come easy.”

I have already begun succumbing to your female magic, as you put it. :)   I think of you several times a day, at least.

Do you like the simple life in the country, or the busy, fast-paced life in the city? How would you rather live?

You need not talk about your ex-boyfriend if it pains you excessively. Just know that if you do ever need to share your history with him, or about anything, that I will listen to you and help if I can.

My plans for the future: I want to write lots of articles and books that speak to people who have waited a very long time to find their special person. I’ve waited many years for her, and have come up with ways of coping with the sadness that results from aloneness which I know so well. I can’t promise to find a reader the girl of his dreams. But I can help make his journey to her more bearable, and to encourage him not to give up his search. So, I want to write philosophy and self-help, that has a highly moral basis, is not self-righteous, and comforts all who read it. I don’t believe there’s ever a good reason to lie to someone, about anything, so what I offer is truth-based.

But even more important than my writing, is finding my true love. Then, once that’s done, she and I will build a life together. I want to do for someone and take care of her, and make her feel safe and loved and not alone. There. How’s that?

Also, I do no drugs. I believe that life poses for us all sorts of neat problems to solve, and these can only be solved with a clear head. I value my health and try to only put good foods in my mouth. Good food is so essential to a good frame of mind. Wouldn’t you agree?

On money: I like having enough to survive. But I do not desire to be rich. However, I wouldn’t turn away a good-paying book deal. Hopefully, if my writing works out, I’ll have more than enough money to take care of me and my dream girl.

Well, I have to go shopping, so take care, and write again soon.
