hope your Valentines Day was nice. The weather here was actually nice (partial blue sky, almost 10 c warm) for this time of year.
I have put replying off for two reasons. First, my ship came back early (because the crew broke it) and we have been working hard to return her to service. And second, I wanted to take care with this reply.
Your english is good and you should be proud of it. You are not fluent; but, I don't expect you to be.
I've been doing some reading on Thai culture and am trying to get going with a Thai language learning program. I think mostly we are dealing with a difference in culture here.
When I wrote "You're making me think you are having trouble keeping track of all your men" I was being a smart ass (wise cracking), not accusing you of anything. In hindsight, I should not have done this as it is easy to take the wrong way. I am sorry for that.
Also a possible culture difference is your use of "boyfriend". I am male and we are friendly; but, boyfriend/girlfriend we are not considered here. In my culture, boyfriend/girlfriend is not usually used until a couple has dated several times and they just stop dating other people. At this time, the term boyfriend/girlfriend is used and the couple does not date others and are expected to either progress to marriage or go their seperate ways with no more dating after some time. Because we have not even heard each others' voices much less shared a meal or touched, I am uncertain as to how to take your considering me your boyfriend. I am hoping it is a difference in culture that we need to understand.
it also concerns me that "you are talking to me alone". Again, we have only e-mailed back and forth and I would hate the thought of you missing out on life or a good husband waiting for me to show up some time. You are a good woman and you deserve to have all that life offers you.
I hope I haven't caused you distress as that is not my purpose here. I am really trying to arrive at a proper understanding of each other.
Take care,
Bert
I have looked and I don't have many pictures of my self. The one I attached I think you already have.
