PsychoFreakBoy Strikes Again
I got another letter in the mail from my psycho ex-boyfriend, the second in just several weeks. Hey, at least he’s mailing them now instead of tucking them under the wiper blade of my truck.
And you know the strangest part? His tone in this most recent letter, was as if he were writing to someone whom he had contact with more recently than the day they broke up, almost two years ago. He even inquired of my schooling and my family as if I were going to snatch up a pen and write him back.
I cannot help but wonder what on Earth is going through this guy’s head when he is writes “I love you”; licks the envelope; affixes the stamp…
Why? Why continue to write letters that have, for almost two years, gone unanswered?
I had a heated debate with a coworker who insists that the fact that I read his letters at all indicates that I still have feelings for him, regardless of the fact that I just throw them away afterward. I can honestly say that this is not the truth. I thought long and hard about this coworker’s statement and came to the conclusion that I feel absolutely nothing for my ex-boyfriend. Not regret. Not longing. Not wonder. Not anger. Nothing.
I’m just nosy and have been curious about what in the world this guy could have to say after all this time. I have decided, however, that I will no longer read them. I have decided that out of respect for my current relationship and the man that I love, I will simply write the words NOT AT THIS ADDRESS. RETURN TO SENDER, on any envelope addressed to me from stalker-boy. Hopefully after a couple of returned letters, he’ll give up and finally leave me alone.
Guys are weird…and occasionally smelly.
