So, here I am at a bilingual real estate office, searching online for good business contract samples to make my translating job easier… and I come across this “awesome” website w/ a thousand different samples. As I search thru its database, what do I find? A sample letter for ending a lond-distance relationship. Wow. WOw. WOW. I had never heard of this before. And who thought of writing this?
Anyways, for your entertainment, I’ve chosen to paste the letter here. (Please don’t use it).
Dear [name],
When you fall for someone, you hope that love will forever be on your side. You live life separately and together, hoping the day comes when you can live your lives as one. We’ve been together for [number] years now, and the memories that we have made together, I will always treasure. Unfortunately, our lives have introduced us to other opportunities.
Now that we live on opposite sides of the [state/country/world], it’s been extremely difficult to keep our relationship together. I know that my job will never let me return to [location].
They always say that if you’re meant for one another, you will be together someday. This may be true, but now is not the time for us. I wish you all the best in your life. I’ll never forget you.
