This is the email I sent to Soulmate - the first since he left. It's not the email I
wanted to send (I'll post that tomorrow) but it's the email I thought was best to send. My goal was to make it pretty clear that I still have feelings for him and am thinking about him without directly saying "I'm head over heels in love with you" like I want to.
Hello my dear,I hope you are nice and settled into South Korea
(sorry about my butchered english spelling of "hello" in Korean - did
you ever watch the show Arrested Development? Good show... Ahnyong!)
and that everything went a little more smoothly than it had been going
those last few days in New York. I apologize if I added to your stress
in those last days, texting and calling you a bunch and whatnot. I just
really wanted to see you, which I hope is forgivable and that you can
take it as a compliment 
How's life? Enjoying your new adventures? I haven't really been
going on many adventures myself lately. Things have been crazy busy
here at work, which is good. Today is the first day I've had completely
off of work since August 9th... (Insert a bunch of miscellaneous stuff about my life and work because he knows my coworkers).
Anyway, moving on. Hehe. What have you been up to? How is your trip
so far? I don't know if I should say this, but I really miss you and
I've been thinking about you a lot. I wanted to send you this email
because I really do want us to keep in touch. So I thought I would
instigate that.
Oh, not that it has anything to do with anything, but Sarah and John
really liked you. Sarah was like "I'm sad that he's leaving because
he's so cool! I wanted to become friends with him!" Just thought you
might like to hear more about how awesome you are 
I am also attaching a song (sharing music is kind of just what I
do... I have like 8 playlists that I'm making for various people right
now). It's by a band that I saw the night
you left New York actually. They're called Ravens & Chimes. They
were really good and this song might be fitting for you because
sometimes big changes can be overwhelming and I think this song
expresses that feeling. It's called "This is Where We Are." A few of
the songs by this band remind me of you actually for various reasons,
not just because I saw them the night you left. But I hope you like the
song. It's one of my favorites of the moment and I think it's really
beautiful.
Anyway, I guess that's enough rambling nonsense for one email. Hope I haven't bored you and hope to hear from you soon!Love,HopelessRomantic

A little rambly, but no more so than average.
I like the way you settled it in that you were thinking about him, and the awesomeness comment too. reminds me of some of my "myspace originals" if you will.
very nice. props to havin the guts to send it
It is good.
(Of course she signed it with her real name!)
(I didn't say anything!)
I love how obvious you stuck it out that Sarah wanted to become "friends." That's so amusing.
It's a good e-mail, though.
That sounds good. You better keep us updated!
=) Good luck.Â
Good luck! Keep us updated
(I love that song!!)
That's like perfect! Doesn't sound so "I GOTTA HAVE YOU HOT STUFF!!!" or n e thing. :) I would throw a lil "sexy" in there and a :p face to show your joking (even though u know ur not) Maybe he'll "flirt" back somewhat!! Good luck! Keep updating!
Sweet and nicely put. Let us know when you hear from him.
