Dear Lindsey:

Congratulations for closing on your new condo next week! And it is wonderful that you are getting along really well with your mother and will be staying there for Easter.

Regarding Derrick: he responded that February “turned out pretty great.. because we met”- that was sweet of him to say that, and assuming it is true for him, he was sweet and truthful. Your reply: “really why is that?”- meaning it didn’t occur to you that it was a great thing that you met him. Rephrasing what you told him: why do you think it was a great thing that we met? I don’t! His response: lol as in: how embarrassing for me, my bad.

You then wrote to me: “I don’t understand why my brain is telling me he’s not going to text me again”- if he is an honest guy who really enjoyed having met you last month (not in person, I understand), then I figure his feelings are hurt.
