Dear Mary

No, I am not married, have never been married, but would like to be someday. I just did not want to tread on anyone's toes if you were taken.

Humblely yours,

Bob

What exactly was that thing?? Was it supposed to be a ....you know! What kind of person do you think I am to believe that would be an appropriate gift. Are you some kind of pervert?

Mary

You said you would like to have something that was special to me. That object was very special because it is almost exactly what I have for real. If you wish, you can send it back. I didn't realize you were such a prude!

Bob
Ps - I will keep myself to myself from now on, you witch.

Bob, you are indeed a pervert and don't call my number again. Fifteen calls in one hour is a bit much, don't you think??? If I want to talk to you, I will call YOU. So leave me alone.

Hey Miss Bitchiness!

You were the one who was looking for love and I guess you found it, right inside yourself. You don't need a man (OR MY ROCK, SO SEND IT BACK) and I no longer have any interest in you. Please do not text me anymore and I won't call you.

Bob (the pervert)
