Dear Eric:

I think that the gifts you gave her are lovely and appropriate, given- like you suggested yourself- the short time you know her. Her responses to your gifts reveal that she appreciates them.

“I keep thinking of the possibility of she leaving. As I did numerous mistake“- you keep imagining that you are making mistakes when you don’t. I will call this one, the I-made-a-mistake obsession. This obsession itself is a mistake: a mistaken thought, a mistaken belief.

“we’re going out tomorrow to watch movies, and planning to have dinner and desserts afterwards… I’m trying to calm myself “- I hope that you do manage to calm down very soon, and that you enjoy your date tomorrow!
