I'm sorry that I said some mean things over the past year and months.  By the time that you and I started interacting online last year, I had already long since lost patience with conglomerate behavior.

You have abused me the entire time.  You abused me yesterday.

I never exploited you.  I never made money off you.  I never got publicity from you.  I never used your phone or computer to flirt with other people right in front of you.

I want this to be over.  I'm sorry that the life you have had didn't help you to be who you might be if the entertainment industry weren't a horrible, warped, reality-distorting machine.  I also think that the industry's propensity to encourage men your age to date women who are much younger than you and to ridicule women older than 30 keeps men like you from being able to date mature, intelligent women who are your age.  The things that are age-appropriate between people who are in their twenties are not replicable with a couple of which one member is in her early twenties and the other in his early forties.  Also, the things that a man in his early forties knows "work" with a woman in her early twenties look like a bag of magic tricks to a mature, intelligent woman over 30; sometimes amusing, sometimes annoying, and not a good investment.
