DATING IN THE MODERN SENSE
--------------------------

The letter from modern Romy OH to Julie Yeh: 

DATE: 30th NOV'97

Dearest  Ms Julie Yeh,

  I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in love with you since the 05th of 
October (Sun).  With reference to the meeting held between us on the 25th of Oct (Sat),
at 2200 hrs in your room, I would like to present myself as a prospective lover.

 Our love affair would be on probation for a period of three months and depending on 
compatibility, would be made permanent.  Of course, upon completion of probation, there 
will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to 
promotion from lover to spouse.

  The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally 
between us.  Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the 
expenses. However I am broadminded enough, to be taken care of, on your expense account.

 I request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, 
this offer would be cancelled without further notice and I shall be considering someone 
else.  I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not 
wish to take up this offer. 

Thanking you in anticipation,



Yours sincerely,
Mr. Romy Oh

NOTE:

This application letter will lead to a failure if you ever send it out to potential 
"Julie Yeh" of yours. REASON being:

"From all the conditions you'd stated, I really doubt you know what love is all about. 
Maybe Modern love is bounded with conditions. But to me, love is something that cannot be 
bounded with conditions. It is something that has freedom and does not have any restriction, 
limits or conditions. You may think that I'm outdated but I seriously think that love is a 
pure kind of feeling and not a deal!!!"

Therefore, here's a piece of better advice :

If you LOVE something very much, let it go FREE.
If it RETURNS, it is MEANT to be YOURS.
If it DOESN"T, it is NOT.
