short text about an hypothetical letter sent from Gatsby (of the great Gatsby) to a her friend Dear Alexis, it was absolutely FASTASTIC, I can't even find the right word to explain, it's strange but sweet and it was with Daisy. I was nervous that night, I was just a soldier, successful but only a soldier, she was treated as a princess instead. I would never thought that she was interested in me, but that night something special happened. We started to talk and I was a bit embarrassed and scared that my manners weren't enough for her. But the more we talk, less embarrassed we were, and in few hours we were in her room. I kissed her first and her didn't ward me off, she was so gently and warm that.. well i don't know if that was love, but I have never been so happy and strange at the same time. I wouldn't say that but I think that night I fell in love with Daisy, and I will repeat that night again and again, until forever. Please write me back, I want to know what you think, and if you have some advice write it in your answer, see you soon Alexis. Yours Gatsby. [Thanks you all]

short text about a hypothetical letter sent by Gatsby (from "The Great Gatsby") to his friend

Dear Alexis,
it was absolutely FANTASTIC. I can't even find the right words to explain it. It's strange but sweet and it was with Daisy. [We don't know what "it" is]


I was nervous that night, I was just a soldier - successful but only a soldier. She was treated as a princess instead.
I would never have thought that she was interested in me, but that night something special happened.
We started to talk: I was a bit embarrassed and scared that my manners weren't enough for her.
But the more we talked, the less embarrassed we were, and in a few hours we were in her room.
I kissed her first and she didn't ward me off. She was so gentle and warm that.. well I don't know if that was love, but I have never felt so happy and strange at the same time.
I wouldn't say that but I think, that night, I fell in love with Daisy, and I would repeat that night again and again, until forever.
Please write me back - I want to know what you think; and if you have some advice, write it in your answer. See you soon Alexis.
Yours, Gatsby.

Very interesting! I corrected your language minimally. I understood everything, despite the mistakes. I also corrected your punctuation.  Commas are used differently in Italian. You cannot separate independent clauses with a comma.  You need a full stop / period, colon or semi-colon. Perhaps you could study this.  Kind regards, Michael 

[Thank you all]
