I could guess you are doing absolutely great today; I am so glad that we are moving ahead to know each other. As to know if we can find the chemistry between us then we can decide.

One thing I am sure, after so long... I feel Oh God, I am not the only one who appreciates genuine thing in a relationship, no matter what form of relationship it is.. I am a person who gives everything to my loved ones, being with them in any situations, and will protect them like how I do for myself. To maintain this thing, I prefer to have small circle of friends who really deserves to get my friendship.

One thing I would like to seek from you is HONEST, I want us to be honest to each other in everything we do, of course you would agree with me that honest is the key to a good and lasting relationship, without truth we cannot move forward. I believe in co-operate existence in my relationship which I believe is the best for a matured relationship. I believe love to be the power that can bring two together from a far or near and I hope you will get hold of this point as I do too.

So now, how are the people in your country? It has been a long time I have interest to invest out from my country such as to buy house and some other things! I have to stop here hoping to hear from you soon.

Take your time and write me, I will be highly honored to read your massages and that will be my pleasure if you can send some pictures to my mail box.

sincerely,
Arnold.
Darling,

How are you and your family over there? I am doing just fine with my work, and sincerely hope that you are doing pretty good!

I came to drop few lines and to know more about your life circle. I am deeply seeking Companionship of you since the day you came into my life and I can't wait to meet you soon. I can't wait to share that harmony and Love with you. Love heals everything. Love is all there is. Love is the Energy of the Soul, therefore when I seek of it, I do with all my heart fully honest about it... I don't mind having friendship with people as long as they are honest and appreciate the true meaning of friendship most of the notes I got from guys out there, they were looking for fun and sex... I am looking for a woman who need a true friend and could share opinions and problems, I could feel your honesty that was why I replied and gave you all attention.

Each day I pray to the Universe to find us where he know we need to be. Beside prayers, I align my personality with my Soul above, forward to becoming a being of the light fully. Humbleness, forgiveness, clarity and Love the gifts of the spirit, Lets take root and bloom and draw to ourselves the Universe, the greatest gifts- human with open hearts towards one another.

I understand that there is a huge distance in between us in terms of location, time etc.  However, I hope with time we can get to be together.  I look at it this way, even if for what ever reasons things/situation don't favour either one of us, at least friendship will remain... I hope. Thanks for your picture.

I have to go for now,

With Love...?
My Dear,

Thanks for your kind attention and your time to write me. I said you can phone to me with +447937414528, or you give me quick message on +447933941356, I called my Mum yesterday, and she wish to see you as soon as possible. Considering your wish in meeting me here. I am making a proper arrangement to visit you very soon in your country, I can't stay without things of you. It is very important for me to express to you how much you really mean to me. I wish I could do this in person, But since we are physically separated by miles of emptiness, this expression must come in the form of letters such as this.

I have a contract coming up but I didn't know how soon that will be, please don't feel so lonely here for not writing to you all day.

I know it is difficult for you, as it is for me, to be separated for so long. Life seems to be full of trials of this type which test our inner strength, and more importantly, our devotion and love for one another.

After all, it is said that "True Love" is boundless and immeasurable and overcomes all forms of adversity. In truth, if it is genuine, it will grow stronger with each assault upon its existence. The longer I am away from you, the greater is my yearning to be with you. I cherish any thought of you, Price any memory of you that rises from the depths of my mind, and live for the day when our physical separation will no longer be. Until that moment arrives,Please keep well and take good care of your self.

With Love,
Arnold
Dear darling

How are you? Mum is very very happy about you she can wait to see you, I hope I told you about my contract but that will be at California, offshore work in America. It has been very hectic last two days for me... I traveled to Scotland by train for 1 day business trip and it came up unexpectedly.

I appreciate all your concern towards me. It is very important for me to express to you how much you really mean to me. I wish I could do this in person while holding you in my arms and gazing into your eyes.

But since we are physically separated by miles of emptiness, this expression must come in the form of letters such as this. Please I will write you next day to tell you more about my trip because I have to pass a circular around to my co workers for my up coming contract. Please try all you can to keep me posted till we meet, I have to stop here.

With much care...

Arnold.
Honey,

Dear I am here again, I know it is difficult for you, as it is for me, to be separated for so long. Life seems to be full of trials of this type which test our inner strength, and more importantly, our devotion and love for one another. After all, it is said that "True Love" is boundless and immeasurable and overcomes all forms of adversity. In truth, if it is genuine, it will grow stronger with each assault upon its existence.

The longer I am away from you, the greater is my yearning to be with you. You are my charming princess, and I am your devoted prince. I cherish any thought of you, prize any memory of you that rises from the depths of my mind, and live for the day when our physical separation will no longer be. Until that moment arrives,

I want to have your full name, office or house address to send you flower and neck-less that I bought for you from Scotland, Just to show you how sincere and pure my heart is towards becoming your friend, I know that ladies most times do not really agree with the idea of the collecting gift item early in a relationship in order to make sure that their stand in the relationship is not mistaken for dependency... but that is  not with me OK? I really want to make you have a memorable feelings in your heart about meeting me.

I send to you across the miles, my tender love, my warm embraces,
  
Arnold.

Dear,

How was your day? I hope all you are keeping good. I just want to tell you that I will be traveling out of the city of California and may not have access to the internet or mails always. The chopper will be coming to take most of us there in not less than 2 hours from now. Please you can always call my cell phone as I have ordered them to roam my line for me.

I did that to get connected with my business and crew members at other country so that they will get in touch with me,you are free to call me. I have been experiencing some climactic error from the mobile network, please call my phone number +447937414528, or you give me quick message on +447933941356 as I told you that I roam it and it is going freely.

I will plan for my visit as soon as my contract is over. It is a promise and I must try to maintain that. Please never mind if I am not in contact with you often because of my busy activities on ship and do let me know  as soon as you have the parcel.

Thanks dear,
Arnold.
That's all we got! He failed to cheat me with his lies...

Re: PARCEL ON HOLD BY CUSTOM THROUGH GLOBAL LOGISTIC EXPRESS COURIER SERVICE MALAYSIA BRANCH

Madam

The management have spoken with your husbands about your inability to come up with the required amount about your parcel that you must come up with 50% of the charges before any thing can be done because of your husbands situation on the sea. You have to make this urgent because we will confiscate the parcel and you have to come down to Malaysia for the clearance if the payment is not made.

This is because the parcel is not now in our custody, That is in Custom Custody and what so ever that happens is let for both the sender and the receiver. We can not clear the parcel from the custom to send to the receiver without the clearance charges.

If you need the payment information, kindly ask us so that we can send it to you immediately but have it in mind that we can not send any parcel back to London if it is not cleared.

Darling,

I received a call from the company which made me to call them back, The company told me that the Custom Authority detected the money I put for you inside the parcel that we must pay for the clearance charges. I asked them to charge my credit card so that they can be able to settle the fee required and send the parcel to you immediately, but their Operational Manager in Malaysia told me that they don't accept credit card for payment, and where I am now, I don't have access to any banking transaction, am 75 miles inside the ocean for my offshore work, otherwise I could have remit the charges for them.

After series of telephone conversation with the manager, he told me that we have to make the payment urgently so that the parcel will be delivered to you at once. I just want to make you have a memorable feelings in your heart about meeting me and knowing me that was the reason I put the money for you and also for my hotel when I come over to meet you.

So please contact the company now and send to them the required charges so that you will receive the parcel.

With care,
Arnold.
