3. (The Nice Way)
Dear John,
I want a man who knows what love is
all about. You are generous, kind, and
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?
Gloria
4. (The Mean Way)
Dear John:
I want a man who knows what love is.
All about you are generous, kind, and
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,
Gloria
