dear sir,
on consideration of all that i’ve observed about you i’ve come to the conclusion that i don’t like you very much.
you want to be seen as a father figure, a god-head, someone for people to run to and then feel indebted to. don’t misunderstand me, these sorts of people are needed in life, no matter which impulses drive them to such a role, for in the end they do assist people in need.
this clarity of your character though means that i don’t wish to associate with you any longer.
it’s not that i’m not grateful for your previous assistance. i am. but i mistook you for a friend, and you allowed me to make that mistake. a friendship is not one where the one in need feels emotionally exhausted upon receiving advice or assistance, nor that they feel that they must repay before they are ready to do so.
it is my mistake for having misunderstood our relationship to have been one of friendship.
so i hand in my resignation of the relationships between us.
yours sincerely
me
