The power of Cuba compells me

Here we are, two and half weeks after my return, I have booked another trip to Cuba with my friend *thankfully she smokes - finally a smoking buddy*

During my email correspondence with Jorge, he would always ask me when he will see me and that he misses me. Yeah yeah yeah, I don't think I miss him, I just have an over active imagination. Finally, I confessed that I was going to return to Cuba soon. But honestly, his email skills are quite lacking. I almost wished he had family members write on his behalf if it means it will go past the same few sentences he keeps sending me. I only know he's the one writing the emails because surprisingly he owns an iPhone 5 (which is indicative that he definitely has a wealthy girlfriend backing him) and every email I receive have been sent from an iPhone 5. I also creeped him when he was sending an email to me when I was literally sitting beside him still, so I know the format in which his emails arrive in.

Gosh. Let's go through the rotation of messages I get from him. And laughingly they are titled "amor" which is SO cliché because in all the forums I have browsed through, they all refer to these amor emails as the primary way scam artists get to the tourists. So in a kind of "f*** you" to the whole notion, I always change the title to "amigo" when I respond back to him because I am not your "love" or "little love", I can't even define what he is so he sure as hell is not defining who I am, grouping me into the same group of other tourists that fall for his...rather boring words. So here goes:

"I miss you, how r u doing?"
"How's life in Canada?"
"I miss you, I hope to see you soon"
"Te extrano"
"I hope I see you again, I miss you"
"Hola"
"What are you doing right now?"
"Send me a picture of you tomorrow" (This one was unique, he sure must think I'm stupid if I am going to send him a picture of me - in the age of the selfies, I don't think it's wise to be sending one to a Cuban)

Sometimes I think he picked the wrong girl to be spending 1CUC a message to, I am so cynical and have my own agenda/game. Maybe I do belong in Cuba. Anyways, the strange thing about these emails are that it's so one sided. Even when I respond and ask a polite "how are you?" In return, he doesn't ever answer my questions and instead charges on with the same but worded a little different email messages as shown above. Yet, I can't help but feel a little twinge of excitement and happiness when I see an email notification from him pop up.

So to sum it up, I have issues.
