| Dear
                  _______________,
 
 I
                  regret to inform you that you have been eliminated from
                  further contention as Mr. Right. As you are probably aware,
                  the competition was exceedingly tough and dozens of
                  well-qualified candidates such as yourself also failed to make
                  the final cut.
 
 I will, however, keep your name on file should an opening come
                  available. So that you may find better success in your future
                  romantic endeavors, please allow me to offer the following
                  reason(s) you were disqualified from the competition:
 
 
 (Check those that apply)
 
 1.
                  ___Your last name is objectionable. I can't imagine taking it,
                  hyphenating it, or subjecting my children to it.
 2.
                  ___Your first name is objectionable. It's just not something I
                  can picture myself yelling out in a fit of passion.
 3.
                  ___The fact that our first dining experience to date has left
                  MY wallet a little lighter, and YOUR pants a little
                  tighter!
 4.
                  ___Your inadvertent admission that you "buy condoms by
                  the truckload" indicates that you may be interested in me
                  for something other than my personality.
 5.
                  ___You failed the 20 Question Rule, i.e., I asked you 20
                  questions about yourself before you asked me more than one
                  about myself.
 6.
                  ___Your constant emailing, shows me you have TOO much time on
                  your hands!
 7.
                  ___Your legs are skinnier than mine. If you can FIT into my
                  pants, then you can't GET into my pants.
 8.
                  ___You're too short. Any son that we produced would inevitably
                  be beaten up repeatedly at recess.
 9.
                  ___You're too tall. I'm developing a chronic neck condition
                  from trying to kiss you.
 10.
                  ___You have a hairy back.
 11.
                  ___I find your inability to fix my car extraordinarily
                  unappealing.
 12.
                  ___The fact that your apartment has been condemned reveals an
                  inherent slovenliness that I fear is unbreakable.
 13.
                  ___The phrase "My Mother" has popped up far too
                  often in conversation.
 14.
                  ___You still live with your parents.
 15.
                  ___Although I do enjoy the X-Files, I find your wardrobe of
                  Star Trek uniforms a little concerning.
 16.
                  ___Your frequent references to your ex-girlfriend lead me to
                  suspect that you are some sort of psychotic stalker.
 17.
                  ___Your ability to belch the alphabet is not a trait that I am
                  seeking in a long term partner.
 18.
                  ___Your height is out of proportion to your weight. If you
                  should, however, happen to gain the necessary 17 vertical
                  inches, please resubmit your application.
 19.
                  ___Somehow I doubt those condoms that I found in your
                  overnight bag were really necessary for a successful business
                  trip.
 20.
                  ___I am out of your league; set your sights lower next time.
  
                    Sincerely,
                  _________________________________
