Hi Rob,
I thought I'd tell a joke to Ke Ren: it's better to have loved a short man than to ever have loved a tall!:icon_cheesygrin:
But I thought better of it and sent this instead:
Dear Ke Ren,
It is not easy to find love, but you have found it. It is not easy to find a good man, but you have found him. It is not easy to find a soulmate, a friend, a protector, a lover, a strong man, a kind man, a funny man. You have found him. He is there, ready to show his love for you by making the most sacred commitment a person can make to another. He will never let you down, he will cheer you up when you feel sad. He will support you in bad times and good. If you think you can find another man as good as Rob, please go and find him, but I know and you know that there is no other man. Not in China, not anywhere in the world.
If your father cares about your happiness, he will meet with Rob and he will let him speak. Rob will not take your Face by being the honest, loving man he is. He cannot take your Face by being short. No. He will give you Face by being the best husband you could ever wish for. He will give you Face just by being himself.
Rob is a very good writer. Have you read his words? He is writing a book about his life. You can be the happy ending for him. And he can be the happy ending for you. I think he deserves a chance, don’t you?
Yours,
Alex Viac
