LETTERS
Letter of the Week!
Dear Rinaldo,
Some time ago, I gave a girl at school a puzzle that, when solved, revealed my deep and passionate feelings for her. However, in the weeks that have passed, she hasn't solved it. This has somewhat dampened my affections for her, as I thought she was quite a bit cleverer than that. Clearly she is not the girl I thought she was! Now I worry that she will hit the solve and try to pursue a relationship I no longer desire. What should i do?
Signed
All Out Of Love
Dear All Out
This is a nasty pickle, isn't it? It's a pity for you you're not a better judge of character. Your best bet might be to have a discreet talk with one of her best friends and get the friend to wipe the puzzle from her key (and dispose of any related physical objects she may have created). Then you have to hope the girl doesn't remember enough of the puzzle to reconstruct it, which she probably won't, if she's as dull as you believe. I suppose you could just gently tell her you've withdrawn the puzzle and its message, but if you had the social wherewithal to do that, you wouldn't be sending girls puzzles they couldn't solve as love notes, would you?
