Solution Longjohn ★ Posted April 1, 2022 Solution Share #1 Posted April 1, 2022 I haven’t heard from Nancy C. Since March 19th. I figured I better give her a heads up. She probably figured it out already but I don’t want to leave her wondering. I sent her a long message and explained what has been going on. She knew about all the other women I was meeting because I was upfront about it from the beginning. I told her that Nancy R. and I have really connected and I didn’t just want to disappear. I thanked her for her time and told her I really enjoyed being with her. I told her that I hope and pray that she will find her perfect match. I felt like I was sending her a “Dear Jane” letter. 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds more like closure, which is preferable to ghosting, than breaking off anything that was solid. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 28 years of running a forge press didn’t do it I doubt typing with my thumbs would. If I have a lot to say I just use voice to text. It makes less typos than I do anyway. Small boned people get carpool tunnel. Lots of room in my big bones for nerves to not get pinched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longjohn ★ Posted April 2, 2022 Author Share #30 Posted April 2, 2022 There has been a change of plans. Nancy’s foreign exchange student was in a car with three other teenagers last night that got stopped by the police. Three of the four had been drinking. She was up most of the night so I told her to try to get some rest. I’ll probably drive over there later in the day. Teenagers 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of us are angels during the growing/learning period of the terrible teens. Especially since the legal age to consume alcohol varies by country. The French exchange student I had a few years ago wrote a column for the newspaper about US teen binge drinking compared to French teen drinking in moderation. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
