We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Always Anti-fascist!

After we stopped going out, I recycled my love letters from Favorite Ex...if I had known we weren't going to stay in touch, I might have kept the ones without the clip art. I do have several...love e-mails?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I've written love letters, and now I wonder if they were creepy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Write me one, and I'll tell you.

Me, unsurprisingly? I've never even thought of writing one.

I think I did, it's called Safe Harbor from Ann Arbor.

Not creepy at all!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Man, I've never gotten even a creepy or sucky love letter.

Yeah, but you have gotten a valentine.

What counts as a love letter? A first time declartion of love, or just regular schmoopy letters between separated lovers? I've got plenty of the latter.

I don't think they're necessarily declarations of romantic love, like the essay I wrote about ita, or Tim, they can just be about how much you love someone. I'm not sure if either essay is schmoopy, but they're both about how much I love them, and how I came to love them.

I have written the romantic love letter, though. I think romantic love letters are less complex, for me, anyway.

Punishingly Intricate

I have all the letters my boyfriend in college wrote to me. As well as all the letters I wrote to him while we were together. He gave them all back to me when we broke up. Also a letter he wrote to me a few years ago apologizing for being such a dick when we were together (not written out of the blue in a creepy way. I had sent him a card when his dad died).
