Dear PEOPLELOVER,

First I have to say; I'm just so grateful that you would take the time to have listened to me at all and that YOU took me seriously.  You must have felt that I wasn't trying to pull anything over on anyone.  I wasn't.  Then you so eloquently put me in my place without a hint of criticism...No wait, you bravely gave me constructive criticism.  Very good, nice job.  I read and I learned.  Thank You.

It's hard to be lonely.  I know that I am not ugly.  But I'm certainly not a "Ken Doll," HA!  I think we all want someone to like our appearance but I do know that that is a shallow way to go through life.  Most of my dear great Male friends married women that were FAR superior in their strong FAMILY convictions and not in their looks.

THAT has worked wonderfully for them and there Children!  Of course they have had some problems along the way but now they are wonderfully committed to each other.  It is to dye for!  Poetic license: And they are the happiest people alive!

Really!  I am SO lucky to have the friends that I have and all of their wonderful Children.

I'm not sure what I was doing tonight.  I was just simply feeling alone.  You, is it Miss PEOPLELOVER?  No matter, helped me more than you will ever know to get me get back in the real world. Really.  I don't know what "outfielder" means. Gay?

No matter, you are terrific.  What a fine mature mind you have and to think, you shared part of it with Me!  I do have to say; I liked the days when I was a toned sunny smiling boy.  It felt great and I had several lovers but all superficial.  I crave a real and true bond.  Never had it.  Like My Dad would say..."Too bad for you."

Thanks,  Thomas Matthew Baird   (Matt)   If you ever want to make me melt just wisper...Matthew in my ear, I'm gone! HA!

Thank You PEOPLELOVER
