There are few qualities that are more uninspiring than a lack of humility. I sense that there is this lack in the lady who authored the letter. As such, she might be beautiful like a statue, but lack the warmth to be beautiful like a real woman.

Anybody who could write something that beautiful and profound should be able to get a lady! Surely there are women in England other than the type you went out with who wanted the fancy watch. Maybe try online dating to weed out the wrong types?

I have tried it in the past, with limited results. I have turned the problem inside and out, and really the only conclusion I can come to is that finding the right person is not entirely within our power. It is rather like walking along the beach and waiting to see what the tide brings in; one must wait for the currents of Fate to bring one to one's beloved. The task in the meantime is to strive to be the best people we can be in every respect possible; so when that tide does wash in, and the right person crosses the threshold, they will recognise you more readily.
