Tonight, I received the fol­low­ing e-mail from Jenn in response to an entry:

Sub­ject: WOW
Date: Sun, 13 May 2001 23:57:54 –0600

No– the sub­ject mes­sage is not even a good wow. I just got through read­ing your jour­nals online and am shocked and amazed. Regard­less of the fact that I have thought about you con­tin­u­ously since you brought up Gor­ril­las a cou­ple weeks ago and I really was finally start­ing to trust you and buy all your stu­pid lines and feel­ings, how­ever, now the real­ity and truth comes out. The wow comes from how shocked I am that some­one could be so full of crap and hurt me so much. Yeah you get the prize for biggest ass­hole in my life at this point in time con­sid­er­ing your hypocrisy towards hat­ing peo­ple that use you and very obvi­ously turn­ing around and using me. Thanks for mak­ing me feel life the scum of the earth and steal­ing away all self-confidence I had as well as the con­fi­dence I had in the entire male pop­u­la­tion. Guess you really don't have it too bad since there is appar­ently no big dilemma going on in your per­sonal life right now. If there is it obvi­ously has noth­ing to do with me and it never really has, has it? I should have trusted my instinct in the begin­ning and stayed away from you!!!

Hurt and ashamed thanks to you,

Jenn

Hmm.… my intent was not to mock or make fun of her at all, but she can take it for what it's worth. I sent her an e-mail explain­ing this… I guess we'll see what happens.
