The problem is that I really want to talk it through with someone.
That someone is not F, for F can’t see past the concept in his head.
Best Mate is far away. It needs a non-Italian to understand. It needs someone close, who knows me well enough but also distant for the “situation”.
What to do? What to do?
The people I could talk to are Italian. I don’t have any anglo-saxon-type mates.
It’s just to talk it through, really. Obviously, once I do that, I’ll make my decisions, regardless of what anyone thinks 
I would do it here – but here is a bit dangerous. So, not here.
It kept me awake last night. It’s going to keep me awake until I figure out what my decision is. It’s a bugger, really.
In the meantime, the Visits continue but, maybe, hopefully, are nearing an end.
Hi Andy – oh my, sounds ominous and complicated. I wish I knew of what it is you write. I am available if you want to ‘talk it through’. Seriously, I would be honored . Just say the word and I will pvt. msg. you my phone number.
Love Gail
peace……..
I’m afraid it is complicated. Ominous, I’m not sure.
Thank you so much for the offer. I really appreciate it. But, in the same way that Best Mate is too far, I’m afraid so are you. I think I need face-to-face for this one.
Anyway, I’ve sort of made my mind up.
I think ……..
Ok, glad you are almost decisive
Your quality style, process, and careful reasoning will bring you through to resolve.
Love you from across the pond
Gail
peace……
Thanks, Gail.
hey, I am Italian but not really
I am half-Canadian LOL and I don’t live far away….
LOL – you’re quite Italian but I love you just the same
Thank you for the offer but, as I said to Gail, I’ve already decided really.
ok!
