to whom it may concern...
you know...thinking about it...i can say this...
i respect your decision..that it is essential...i mean it is, after all, your decision. however, i do not agree with your logic. how does one justify judging all based on the merits and numerous shortcomings of some? granted previous disappointments are unquestionably a factor and for that i cannot blame you. once again, i still contend that several fallacies exist in your analysis of and ultimate decision on the situation. how is it that you can so easily say that you were uncomfortable with the pace at which things progressed while being yourself an equal driver of said progression. granted, i will say that i can empathize with that sentiment, but to make it seem as though one should be punished or not given a fair chance as a result of allowing said progression when you were just as willing a participant comes off as a bit hypocritical/contradictory to me. perhaps i am missing the point, but let's assume for the sake of argument that i am not. could said progression not have been an isolated incident, which both parties now share an immense sense of regret and/or confusion over? could said progression not be halted in future confrontations? you admitted that there was some sort of connection and in that, confirmed that we indeed agree on something in regards to the situation at hand. has it not occurred to you that the ease with which this progression developed may be indicative of just how well we fit? surely you do not view this as some tawdry, meaningless encounter. if so, i have greatly misjudged your character.
you got the best of me, and looking back on it, perhaps i should have been a bit more guarded in my approach to you. however, i trusted you...i felt you were...well, special...someone i had bonded with on a level not frequently experienced by myself. every laugh, every smile, every slight of hand seemed to orchestrate some grand plan that would ultimately lead to something meaningful perhaps something anchored in the realm of divine will, fate, predestination, or whatever. but...given the current state of things, i find that i was/am alone in that analysis of our relationship.
perhaps i am simply too much of a dreamer...i frankly am at a loss. i would never have envisioned an outcome such as this. i am saddened. worse so, i am saddened on two different fronts. one of which is the rejection by someone i had become so entranced by. the other being the possibility that i have lost what could have been one of the most rewarding friendships i could have ever hoped for. to ask me to be just that (friends) is to ask me to forget everything that has transpired between us. my general practice is to remain close friends with those i have dated, but this is an entirely different situation altogether seeing as how we were never an "item"( although...). that being said, i am not so certain of my ability, or even willingness to do that.
i have my suspicions, i must say, as to the ultimate factor in your decision, but unfortunately i believe it will never surface, or at least will not be allowed to. this is not to say i doubt your honesty, simply your overall willingness to be completely forthcoming in lue of my feelings. enjoy though... hope it works out for you. packaging is not all that matters.
for now..i will end this by saying thank you for all that was...
