The past that won't leave me alone
Well, it must be that time of year again. At least twice a year my ex girlfriend sends me an e-mail ?just to say HI?. Here is what I would like to write back to her, but know that I never will:
Dear XXXXX (You don?t want to know her name, do you?),
Thank you for the nice message you sent me. Yes, I know it has been a while since we last talked and yes, I really should be better at keeping in touch with you. BTW, how is your husband and please remind me why you feel it necessary to send me these messages. Have you ever thought that maybe it would be best for both of us if you forgot about me? Of course I have fond memories of you and yes, those were indeed some of the most passionate times of my life. How could I ever forget them?especially since you keep writing me and describing them in such lovely intimate detail? While yes, you will always be a part of the memories that make me the person that I am, but do you think it is best for us to continue to re-live those memories in your twice a year message? Hmm, I wonder if your husband would agree. Thank you for the pictures you sent. You look as beautiful as that first day when you stole my heart. I?m really serious, you look lovely?but does your husband know that you have sent me nude pictures of yourself? Why did you send me those? What do you want from me? Aren?t you happy with your husband? Wait, please don?t answer those questions. That will only make me think of you more. Damn it, can?t you see how confused you make me. Okay, I am going to go look at your pics one more time, think fondly of you, remind myself why we broke up and then pray that I can forget you?at least until you send me another message in about six months.
Love?no?Kind Regards,
Lyle
