Ugh, I know! Yuck. I don't know if I'll continue to write. I might as well be penpals with my 11 year old cousin.

Today while I was waiting for my nails to dry at the nail salon there was a Jane magazine there. Anyway, this issue (April's) featured an article about men who write to women in jail. They mentioned the Jail Babes website plus a few others. One difference is that the men go visit the women they meet, one man has spent $7000 on travel alone.

Ok, Mr. Michael sent another letter. Keep in mind that I haven't responded to the first (very friendly, non suggestive) letter yet. I sense he may get his feelings involved quickly. I thought I expressed clearly in the first letter that we could be friends and I sent him some encouraging words. Here is his letter:
Dearest,
It's Sunday and its raining very badly down here. I was laying in my bed looking out at the fence and I found my thoughts drifting to you. These feelings are mixed at this point, so please do not take offense to the things I'm going to explain herein. Being that my astrology sign is Leo you'll quickly learn that I believe in taking my destiny into my own hands. In my jungle I am the kind, and like any king who has not found his soulmate, I am in search of her! After I thought deeply on some of the things you expressed in your letter I decided to make a decision. I decided to approach this whole situation in a way that will kill all of the usual game playing.
Since placing my ad on that website, I have really been meeting all of the wrong women. That was until you came along. My hopes are always for the best, yet I often find myself expecting the worst. I intend to be absolutely honest with you throughout the duration of our friendship, and I sincerely hope that you intend on doing the same. I can only imagine the complexities you endure trying to find common ground when communicating with friends and associates. It's especially difficult when you must interact with so many different personalities. I myself experience this here in prison daily.
I have often had dreams of meeting an individual whom I could build a strong foundation in life with. In my younger days I use to play some of the games that foolish people all end up playing. Now that I'm more mature those type of games no longer hold any importance to me. I want security. I want stability within my life and family structure. You have not said exactly what has attracted you to me. I want to know if your interest is sincere. Because of my situation I know from past experiences that being without often causes one's feelings and emotions to be very delicate. This is the case with me. I feel we need to establish an understanding with each other early on. I wish to make it known that I find you beyond attractive in both the mental and physical aspects, yet I'm ultimately scared of growing too attached to you. I just want you to be aware of where my head is at coming into this.
As I've mentioned you possess all of the qualities that I directly come to associate with my ideal woman. I have been no stranger to hurt in this lifetime, but I have learned a great deal from it.
I would like to know everything there is to know about you and then some. If you feel the same about me do not hesitate to ask any questions I solemnly pledge to answer honestly. Well I just wanted to touch basis with you and these issues as well as let you know how much you were on my mind. Take care and continue to reflect your positive light my way! I do hope to here back from you soon
Sincerely,
Michael

He sounds like this is "letter number 2" in his bag of tricks. He doesn't directly mention anything that you wrote to him, it's pretty general. He says stuff like :
I thought deeply on some of the things you expressed in your letter
umm....o.k. What things?
I can only imagine the complexities you endure trying to find common ground when communicating with friends and associates. It's especially difficult when you must interact with so many different personalities.
Did you tell him that or is he trying to play into something he thinks he knows?
I want security. I want stability within my life and family structure.
uh huh. I bet you do! LOL

How does he know he finds you physically attractive? You have all the qualities he's looking for? And he knows this after 1 letter?  err....o.k.
I don't want to appear cynical, but come on man, slow ya roll!! LOL

LOL, it did sound like FORM LETTER of LOVE. But to me, it also sounds like dude is straight lonely (who wouldn't be) and wants to feel like he has someone on the outside?

Ok, Mike wrote an interesting letter. It could be his way of feeling you out, although I do have to agree with Eclipse on this one....he didn't cite anything specific from your last letter.
It just hit me that if these JD's have access to a computer, then that means that they are on the 'net. Oh well, I hope they don't find there way to GC.

NowOrNever, did you send him a picture of yourself or did you just describe yourself to him?
I found his letter to be very articulate. I'm impressed. The letter did sound like it had been written and saved, like CT4 said, "a form letter." I didn't find it to be spooky or anything because I didn't read it like that. It just seems to me that he is lonely and that he doesn't want to start corresponding with a person that is just in it for a few kicks, then will fall off. I see no problem with being his friend or penpal, but PLEASE be straight up with him and let him know that you are only trying to be cool with him. He is looking for a love connection. It gets like that sometimes. I tell my students that everyday. When you are on the scene, you have friends all over. When you go down, you can't get a letter or visit from these same people that were supposed to ride and die for you....

No, i sent a picture. But I thought I made it plainly clear that I just wanted to be a PENPAL....guess I have to break it down for him.
You all are right. I didn't think about the possibility of this being a generic letter. Hmmm.

Wow, why did I never read this thread before?
I know you want to support the brothas and all but this whole letter writing thing is creeping me out. You all do NOT know who you are meeting, you just know that some of them have the CAPACITY for VIOLENT BEHAVIOR.
I am so with Eclipse on that letter- it sounded like a formula. How many women have written to him? What is he looking for? Is he still in contact? It is really easy to lie in print y'all.
I know what it's like to be lonely and all but this is so not the answer. Read a book. See a movie. Come to GC and chat with all your long lost friends that you never met, lol. All I am saying is PLEASE be careful.
