Dear Lisa:

Glad to read from you. I thought about you yesterday, wondering if and when you return to your thread. Glad you are back.

You wrote that you are not willing to play games. I don’t want to play games either, to dishonestly manipulate anyone. It bothers me when I behave in a way I feel is not authentic.

It would have been wonderful indeed if you met a man who was authentic with you, honest, and with whom you could be the same, one who cared about your well being as you cared about his. Thing is, you’ve been alone for so long, troubled for so long, believing some things about people and life that are not true to reality… I believe… that such a loving relationship that you always wanted is not likely. Never happened and may not happen.

How I do wish it did happen for you.
