Lewinsky letter to Clinton, Nov. 12 1998

12 November 1997

Handsome:

I asked you three weeks ago to please be sensitive to what I am going through right now and to keep in contact with me, and yet Im still left writing notes in vain. I am not a moron. I know that what is going on in the world takes precedence, but I dont think what I have asked you for is unreasonable. I cant help but to have hurt feelings when I sent you a note last week and this week, and you still havent seen me or called me.

I thought if I.took-away your burden of having to try to place me in the WH you, would open yourself up to me again; I missed that more than anything. It was ; awful when I saw you for your birthday in August. You were so distant that I missed you as I was holding you in my arms.

You have functions tonight, tomorrow night and then you leave on Friday afternoon. Yesterday was the best window of opportunity to see me and you didnt. Im left wondering why. I am begging you to please be nice to me and understanding until I leave. This is so hard for me. I am trying to deal with so much emotionally, and I have nobody to talk to about it. I need you right now not as president, but as a man. PLEASE be my friend.

Betty said that you come back from your dinner tomorrow somewhere between 8:30 and 9:OO. For my sake, can we make an arrangement that I will be waiting for you when you get back, and we can visit just for a little while. Its really not that diffrcult...yes or no?
