In a messy world, what happens when you start searching for potential lovers? If most of them do not react to your messages (although you can see them online), probably insufficiently stimulated by your profile? Others might agree for a walk, if it does not rain, Saturday afternoon, or next Tuesday. That does not sound promising. Almost always, communication stops for no obvious reason. Attention and curiosity disappear. Will they all remain virtual fantasies?
Multiplied screens are our new fragmented windows to the outside world. Connected with anyone, anywhere, anytime. However, isolated: alone and lonely in a room. Hesitant and polite, "two simple letters" imply permanent insecurity, modesty, timidity — avoiding to offend or frighten the interlocutor(s).
