A Case of Mistaken Identity

This afternoon, I received an email from some idiot named Aaron:

Noelle,

When I saw you at the gym and didn't say anything that was childish on my part. There really is no need for that. Take care, good luck in the future.

What i'll omit from this post is the guys' professional signature that was at the bottom of the email. It listed everything from his title all the way to his cell phone number. Seemingly Noelle and this fellow had some sort of romantic tryst that ended badly. With all of the other frightening ways that people can stalk one another these days, it's somewhat unbelievable to me that somebody could send an email to the wrong person on an issue like this. Why even risk it? Did this guy think an apology would get Noelle to jump into bed with him once again? Being the compassionate individual that I am, I proceeded to forward the email to most everyone, asking for advice as to a reply to craft. Within 5 minutes, I had almost 10 responses. Most we're long strands of "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA", but a few gave me some great comebacks:


- You're right, it was childish. I felt bad about f****** your brother but after that last encounter I'm no longer guilt ridden. I hope your test results come back negative. If not, good luck in the future .


- i would have approached you but i think i love you. that made me scared.


I'll be accepting submissions until midnight tomorrow (saturday).
