It is a shame it is a cut and paste job but I think this is what could be considered an off script response from my wordy ladette; think I broke "him" Laughing

so he has sent me a nice motivational story with a moral to it.

to me
Juliet had been an attractive girl, and n0w she was an attractive woman, but though she was well past her mid thirties she still was unmarried. Oh, its not that she hasn't been asked. But she was choosey, maybe too choosey.

Juliet had been engaged seven times. Each time 0nly a few days before the coming marriage ceremony she had called the coming marriage off. " I know it seems like a pattern", she said to me when I asked her. " And it probably is very odd. But when I finally knew each engagement was wrong, what else could I do"?

"You might have tried going through with the marriage cerem0ny", I quipped in. "Why?" she asked me. " Because your husband and your ideal lover may have merged". "What do you know about my ideal lover?".
"That he is unattainable. Seven men have been left waiting at the alter because of him, but still he will not come. He is not real, a product of your wishes, your hopes. When you marry, you must marry an imperfect, erring human just like yourself. You will love each other only if you support each other. If you keep trying to escape supporting each other, no one will love you.All is not moonlight r0mance and sexual culmination in life. The law of nature is that we be relevant, that some cause, some event, some human being need us. If we satisfy this law, we love. If not we neither love nor are loved. To know the bliss of a perfect mating you must suffer its imperfection, and w0rk on it to make it what you want, by the help of the almighty".

"But you can know how desolated I am" She said. " calling off each marriage was like accepting the end of everything. I did n0t want to, but I knew they were wrong, and I just could not help my self".

"Juliet", I called her, fixing my gaze at her squarely, "marriage, like everything else in life, is exactly what you make it. If you feel a sense of incompatibility with prospective husbands, it is because that inc0mpatibility is in yourself. Think, have you truly accepted yourself?" " Perhaps I haven't", she said to me honestly. " Do you know why?", she shook her head. " Have you accepted God?" She looked startled at that moment, and my heart went out to her, tears in my heart because of what she is going through. " What's that got to do with it?' "perhaps a great deal.Have you""
"No I haven't". " You don't believe in God?' I asked. "N0 I don't". "Then you think you are just an accident, that the world is just an accident itself, and everything in it are just accidents". " I guess so", she said. " Then I have a cure for your loneliness and your failure to find your beloved. It will work for you if you follow it faithfully. It w0rked for me. It can not fail. It does not fail".

Mr xxxx, I am surprised that you let yourself to be going through what you are going through . I am the one that sent Mr xxxxx to meet with you in Dubai. He went to the place you asked him to meet you. He called your number several times, your phone was off. He called me t0 report to me, so that I would not get angry with him. I called your number and it was truly office.

Sir, people have given our country bad names by their own choice. Yes, it is true that there are many bad fellows around, who have destroyed the image of our country, but I am beginning t0 get worried about your style. I am not one who likes to throw valuable time away. I have seen this kind of thing before. But Only God in heaven knows my heart towards you.

Regards

I rather think this story should have begun with "Once upon a time...." How very odd.

Holy Charlie Foxtrot! As Yas would say. That is a horrid mess of irrelevant material. Did you ask what the moral of the story is supposed to be? The bride can't get married because he cannot find you in Dubai?
