Sorry, girl, he’s a creep. Get that accordion-swinging, nudie-brained psychopath away from you before he “snail” mails you a picture of you sleeping.

Congrats, girl, he’s French! You have a cultured oil painter on your hands, you American vixen. Once you’re married (and he’s got his visa) it’ll be nothing but kisses, poems, more kisses, and eternal moonlight. Bonne chance!
