I have prepared a MySpace mail to send to my aunt (who is a lesbian) for some advice. She's one of my few relatives that I actually love, and she's been through the Mormon environment and I think she'd have some good things to say. Here's the draft I have. Please leave any comments you have on it.
Glen, I think that's a brilliant letter. I can't think of any changes you need to make, I think you've conveyed everything that's important, injected a little humor, and conveyed how much you care for and trust her. I'd say send as is.
Thats beautiful. Send it. You are bound to get bundles of advice back since it sounds like she is quite the strong woman I wish i had a lesbian aunt or gay uncle, quite bad actually.
Hi there! I think it is a great e-mail/letter. You have expressed really well why you want your aunt to know. I suggested a couple of changes. I have grouped some of your points together. I have highlighted them in bold! Of course feel free to ignore them. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
Thank you. She has been through a lot for as long as I've known her, and I just like being able to see her as a person who has problems that I can relate to. She is very strong for getting through them. I'll keep this open to suggestion. Thanks Asteroid for your revisions. I will work on revising when I can think (by getting to bed).
I don't think that she will pay much attention to detail. So don't stress about having the perfect email. Also, I find it very good (both your and the revised version) so, in my opinion, you can send it right away.
Well, in the long run do what is comfortable you. I think emails and myspace are a little impersonal, but if you want to do it in one swoop, as opposed to one person at a time...go for it.
All righty, it has been submitted. I'll let you guys know how the reply goes Thanks for all your input and support.
