Sandy,

I never wanted this to happen. Please believe me. Every day since I met you ten years ago has been delightful. More than delightful, it’s been incredible. You are truly the most wonderful and extraordinary woman I have ever known, and I’m a weak and sniveling idiot for what I’ve done.

Seeing you the first time, when you were working the counter at the Kwiki Mart, I knew you were something special. Not only were you fantastically beautiful, but I could tell that silly, pointless job was just a step on the ladder for you, that you deserved not just to be the night clerk but also manager, or maybe district manager.

Even though I was with that slut Marsha, the moment I saw you I knew that there was a unique and powerful connection between us. When you gave me my change after getting us our hot dogs and two MegaGulps, I felt an electric-like spark between us when our hands touched. I knew right then that we were meant to be together.

I know it was rude of me to wait two weeks before coming back to the Kwiki Mart, darling, but to be honest with you I had spent all that time trembling with fear at seeing you again. I was terrified, you see, that perhaps you didn’t feel the same way about me, or that you’d see me for the quivering little boy that I am deep down inside.

I know we all acted like idiots, Sandy, but it was all an act. I really didn’t mean to spill all that beer, or make fun of that stupid paper hat they made you wear. I really didn’t mean it when I said that you must have been a loser to be working in a place like that. It was all nerves, you see, because I knew, deep down in my heart, that you were the one woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

It was all a foolish game. All of it. The way I teased you, the insults, when Earl, Frank, and I grabbed the Coins for Cripples jar and pretended to steal it. It was all my way of trying to get to know the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.

I’m sorry if I made you cry after we left. I was a rude and self-centered jerk. But I was scared, Sandy. I was terrified that you wouldn’t like or love me the way I loved you. It’s
