How do I write a Dear John letter to a 71 yr old?
Gailcalled! You are taking on too much responsibility for this person. He didn’t make it to 71 without some rejection along the way. Write him and be brutally honest. Tell him you enjoy the pen-pal friendship, but are not interested in taking things further. Suggest to him that if he wants a closer relationship he should pursue women in his area who have common interests and views on life. Tell him how much you enjoy your privacy and being single. Tell him you’ll seek a compatible spouse for him but you’re not the one! After this, ignore all suggestions he may have to get together. Continue to correspond with your own fluthering thoughts as if you never read a sentence of his.
