Paulie,
You have such a way with words. Thinking about what you said about friendship, it’s not about people that you have a large amount of interest in or hang out with often, but that makes you feel good. It’s about those people that no matter how long you have been gone they don’t forget you. And it’s about the ones who are still in your life, without you even asking, they love you. I guess it’s about people we should care about and how we treat people. I know when we are dating we don’t always think about how the person we date will treat us after we are married. We are just focused on the dating stage and what it is we want. But after we get married we realize what a person really means to us and those people become an important part of our life.
I don’t have WhatsApp unfortunately, but I guess that makes our emails more romantic. If you can’t leave Iraq until you’re 100% finished with the project, how many per cent finished do you think you’re up to? I haven’t booked a return flight home yet because I was hoping we could spend Christmas together. I haven’t given up. I will try to travel northwest to be closer to you. It might be a bit dangerous getting into Iraq but I’ll see what I can do. What city are you in? I’m going up the Burj Khalifa today, I’ll see if I can spot you lol.
Paulie I hope you don’t mind, but I’m using your email address to vote in a music poll for some of my favourite bands. Thought it would be a cute way for you to learn about my favourite music! You’ll get an email from “ABC” that says “Please complete your sign up” and you’ll just need to click the yellow button that says Verify Email. I can do the rest. Can’t wait to show you!
Be safe, my love. Forever and ever. One thousand blessings. Christmas cheer.
Alise
Notes
I’m still outsourcing the romantic fodder to robots, with the purple text written by AI. After this, the generated text started talking about how much I love my mum so I thought I’d better cut it off there before it got weird(er).
He’s asked (for the third time) to add me on WhatsApp but I’ll forever deny that request because of potential spyware.
My latest goal in this saga (aside from pretend-travelling through the Middle East) is to get Paulie to swing a vote for my favourite band’s entry in the Triple J Hottest 100, because that’s what internet boyfriends are for. I made sure to subscribe him to a few newsletters while I was registering his email address.
Hahaha you should ask for his WhatsApp number and hand it out to every spam marketing mob you can find !
I have some Hello Fresh discount boxes you can sign him up for.
