I am not quite sure what you want because that is not a question. Therefore there cannot be an answer. But, if you were looking for an opinion on that sentence I can give you that. First of all, caressed may not be the right word to use. You could go into more detail though.
Such as:

It could be along those lines, I hope that helps I really didn't know what you wanted to hear.
