Posing Questions About The Love Letter And Its Unintended Effects

When does a confession of feelings become sexual harassment? A question I've been debating the last 24 hours. We have a right to our emotions and express of such, correct? However, I suppose that one of the boundaries is if my description of desire makes the person receiving the message uncomfortable or demeaned in any way. Perhaps, then it's wrong. Certainly, this can happen inadvertently or without a malicious purpose.

Most of us during our short lifetimes, we have to deal with people being attracted to us when we are not attracted to them, and handle the complicated issue without causing undue hurt on that person just because we're not interested. If everyone has rights to their feelings of love, then we have the responsibility to explain ourselves (and sometimes the lack of mutual interest) in a way that poses the least amount of threat to another's well being.
