Dear Rebecca,
Although I can forgive your behavior on 9/27/02, I cannot
forget it. It
was one more incident in a series of increasingly irrational
and abusive
acts by you against me. Since 9/27/02, your emails have vacillated
between
angry accusations, veiled threats and sexually explicit invitations.
Your
most recent incoherent email dated 10/10/02 demands a response
by 10/7/02 -- i.e. three days earlier. I have discussed
your behavior and your
personal history with an expert in abusive relationships.
In order to
protect myself and my children, I will have nothing further
to do with you,
personally or professionally. You, of all people, should appreciate
how
important it is to shun abusive relationships.
In order to make myself perfectly clear, do not interpret
this letter as an
invitation to renew communication or negotiations between
us. So there is
no misunderstanding, do not write to me. Do not call me. Do
not send
emails, cards, letters or gifts. Do not to try to see me.
Do not contact
any of my business or personal associates. In short, I am
ending all
contact with you from this point. If you visit my home or
attempt to
contact my children, I will telephone the police again without
hesitation
as I did on 9/27 ... and the next time, I will press charges.
I wish you well,
Walter
