I'm back and looking for insight

Back in May, when I saw that 29 year old college friend was going on vacation with his family, I wrote him a note basically backing off. Then I realized that maybe I was jumping to conclusions and that maybe she was just a friend of the family.(His family was like a sponsor family for her when she was in college 10 years ago, so yes this kind of has a sleeping with your "Dad" type of quality to it).

Anyway, he wouldn't talk to me. So I wrote him a letter...the story of us. Back from when we were in high school until now. I told him how I got scared but that I was willing to try if he was. Maybe wrongly, I mentioned that I didn't care if he had a dollar in his pocket or $100, I was interested in him and not what he could do for me or give me.

I had already sent the letter and the check when a day or so later he posted that he was in a relationship. So I never got a reaction from the letter. I forgot to say, I did get to IM with him a week or so later when he was on FB. Basically just thanked him for the lovely few months we had and he replied "likewise". I don't know if I hurt him when I backed off or if since he was already going for 29 year old, he didn't want to talk about all of this with me. He lives in Southern Missouri in Springfield and I live in NE Kansas in Topeka. So I know that the mail does take a least 2 days.


So there you go, Miss Hopeful Romantic.
