Dear Melissa;

When one of our closest friends told me the comment you said about me, I chuckled. You said, “Kenny Dennis is still infatuated with me after all of these years and that is why I flagged his ass.” First of all, I have not seen your face in over 35 years. We are 53 now. The last time that I saw you to your face was some photo you sent to our classmates and before that, I saw you 35 years ago at the Assembly of God in Esther where your father-in-law preached at.

The very same church that I became a member of after he stopped preaching at the church because it was four blocks away from my current wife’s house. Why? She lived in the neighborhood and it was about 1,000 feet from her home. It was practically in her backyard. That sort of killed your comment of, “Kenny, went to my church because he was trying to have sex with me.” I went to that church because it was convenient.

I am not trying to embarrass you with your friends but I need to knock you down a peg or two. Not everything in your life is about you. Hell, I have been married for going on 35 years now. BTW, congrats with being married for 37 years now. You and I both know that commitment to the same person is not easy, sometimes. You and I both believe that divorce is not ok, as well. Yes, I am fully aware of the Assembly Of God’s belief in divorce. I have a lot of respect with you on that view.

However, you are getting this post just to chit chat. That part of it means that I am still a nice guy. However, there is also a very negative side to me. A side of me that I need to demonstrate to you. A side of me that wants to piss you off. When I heard what you said then you really angered me as well.

I am not the type of person you wish to piss off. I am not interested in having any relationship with any woman, period. Yes, I comment and said it was nice to see you. That was a genuine hello to you. That comment was not me asking to get in your pants. Melissa, I also checked in on how you have treated others and you need to stop being some Karen. The world does not revolve around you. I have not seen your face in 35 years. You have not seen me in a very long time. Hell, I am in another state that is quite a distance to travel.

Do you really think that I want to throw my marriage to sleep with you? Absolutely not. Hell, you are so damn ugly that you have probably broken every mirror in your house. That is what I think of you. Did that hurt? Good. You got my point. Does this mean you’re ugly? No. It means that you are ugly in my eyes. That means quite literally that I am not interested in any form of relationship with you. Friends? Maybe. Lovers? Hell No!

I have never really wanted to be a boyfriend to you. Even when I was staring at you on the bus. I was messed up back then after I was sexually molested to someone and some bullshit stuff was being told to me that you had no idea on what was being said. Am I sorry for doing what I did to you as a kid. Yes. Do I expect forgiveness from you? No. Why? You know what I am calling you.

The point is get off of your high horse and this, “I am the center of the world, mentality.” If you think that I am interested with you in any sense then I am making this clear that I do not care about you or your family. I owe you absolutely nothing because I have been away for 35 years. If you are not down with that then I have two words for ya. You know them.

Kenneth Dennis
