Dear Mark
I really wish I could have to you that Roger called and told me he was taking you on a romantic trip to the Bahamas, but, sorry, no. If he had, I'd probably convince him to take me with him instead. I sure could use some time away. Sorry. This isn't about me.
So, things aren't any better, huh? I guess my wishes for the three of you to get together and live happily ever after in a threesome didn't come true. I know, I know, that would never work. You're not that kind of person, Mark, and neither is Roger. Mimi, on the other hand...
You really think your parents would freak out if you told them you are gay. Or bi. Or whatever. Maybe you're just Rogersexual. I shouldn't be joking about this, I know. But I think you're right. About your parents I mean. I actually met your mother once, remember? Of course you do, I'll never forget the look on your face when she showed up at the loft, without any warning. After you regained your ability to speak you introduced me and... Cameron, I think I was dating at the time. God, I really didn't have any taste in those days. Anyway, when you said he was my boyfriend, she gave me this look. A don't-you-dare-try-to-turn-my-son-gay-or-I-will-hunt-you-down-and-feed-you-to-the-crows-look. Maybe I'm exaggerating. She seems like a nice enough person.
Why am I not surprised to hear that Roger's jealousy is causing trouble again? Why can't he just trust people once in a while? You say that if he was with you that wouldn't be a problem. I'm sorry Mark, but I it would. Even if you were completely faithful to him, as I'm sure you would be, he would still get jealous. He always does. April never did anything to deserve it, and yet once he almost punched a guy she was only talking to. He's so insecure, Mark. I think his jealousy is some kind of instinct to protect himself, and I'm not sure if it'll ever go away. But you know him better than me, so maybe you're right.
Mimi's always been too good at pushing Roger's buttons. And he lets her. But Mark, I really don't know what to say about this. I haven't met any of you in months, and I don't know how Mimi and Roger's relationship is. All I know is what you've told me. And, forgive me for saying this, but maybe, just maybe, you're seeing things you want to see.
This probably wasn't the kind of letter you wanted to get. I'm sorry. I'm not in a very good mood today, and I probably should've written this another day, but I wanted to get it done. Mark, I really wish I could say something to make you feel better, but I can't. I love you, and I love Roger, and if I could think of a way to make both of you happy, believe me, I would. But I don't know how.
Take care. And take care of Roger and Mimi, even though you probably don't want to. Do it for me, ok?
