Did you reply? :D
:D Er, no, I did not! I almost felt sorry for him and replied because he wrote it "from the bottom of his heart" but then considered that I didn't want him to know my email address and I didn't want to marry him... so yeah. I was once also asked to marry a taxi driver in the States who had just emigrated from somewhere in Africa. I was about 12, I think, and my parents were in the taxi--it was pretty funny!
