Answer 1

Dear Malvolio,

I write to you today as I can no longer continue to keep my feelings for you bottled up inside. I have been secretly admiring you for quite some time. Whenever I see you, my heart skips a beat, and I can barely contain my excitement.

When we meet tonight, I want you to wear something that will impress me and make you look like the charming man you are. Wear a tuxedo, and make sure it's a black one. It will help you stand out in the crowd and make a great impression on me.

When you're around me, do not be shy or hold back. Talk about your accomplishments and qualities as if you're the only person in the world who matters. Speak loudly and clearly so that everyone can hear you. Emphasize your every word so that every sentence you speak becomes a masterpiece of eloquence.

Lastly, I want you to act in a way that I can show off my love for you in public. Walk with me holding my hand, smile, and gaze into my eyes all the time. You may do some more extra things like sing to me and dance with me so that the world will know the depth of our love.

I am looking forward to seeing you tonight, and I can't wait to show everyone my love.

Yours truly,

Your Secret Admirer.
