RE: This is Conner’s fault.
Joseph,
I’m going to have to admit that I’ve started this email several times with everything from To Whom It May Concern to Dear Joseph, and it’s just gotten more graceless from there. First introductions should always be done in person so chemistry can, hopefully, override awkwardness. But since that isn’t the case here and Conner is insisting that I email you (because he couldn’t find a smoother Daddy at the moment?), I’ve given up figuring out how to start this without it sounding inelegant or overly professional.
My goal from here on out is overly professional in case you’re wondering.
Conner is going to have a heart attack, so let’s not tell him? I think this can be a private matter between the two of us since this is mostly an audition to see if we would work out as Daddy and boy.
You know, I’m really starting to question what you did to Conner to make him think I would be a good fit for you? Did you hide his favorite drink at the club? Convince Ben that Conner didn’t need a spanking?
Yes, clearly this awkwardness is what Conner intended, so I think you need to take a good look at your life and figure out where things went wrong. If you need help with that task, feel free to email me back and we’ll work on it together.
