After reading Robb's post - it made me realize that ...

2. Haven't received any of those, either.
Guess I have never been attracted to any romantic, poetic types.

4. Not letters per se
(I would have been the one writing letters) but cards, notes and emails. A sonnet, too. I came across them as I was packing.

Many were from one ex, and he was moving the same time as me (earlier this month). When he came to help me move (he helped briefly), he said he came across all my cards/notes/letters, too, as he was packing. We had an interesting conversation about old times, even though it's clearly in the past, and will not be revisited other than through memories.



I hope you are the recipient of one very soon, bullwinkle. :hug:

8. I still have the one my first boyfriend sent me.
I really wish I could turn back time. I believe he was the one who got away.

Then again he did beat me up but what if he did'nt flip out.

18. I have only had one..
From the first girl I ever kissed(with tongue). I was in the 9th grade and drunk.. It was slightly awkward. I ran away and found her best friend looking for advice. She had none. I went back to my room and apologized for my lack of experience. I gave her a kiss on the forehead and we both fell asleep (spooning).

The next morning she gave me a note in algebra. A love letter of sorts.

22. My ex-boyfriend sent me two letters the entire time I dated him.
I dated him for four and a half years. I sent him lots. My husband, who's not really much of a letter writer, did send me 20 or 25 during the time we dated (which was a long time). I sent him lots more than that.

25. Aren't letters a dead art form?
Who writes letters anymore? I wrote long ones many years ago, but in these days of instant communications, it seems a quaint bygone tradition.

33. Some from the former Mr Supernova
That was a long time ago though.... and I don't think I have them anymore. I think if I were to read them now, it would be as if they were written to somebody else. And they were. I was a very different person then.

I haven't had a love letter in a very long time. :-(
