仕事で関係の続く外国人からの誘いの断り方
お世話になります。 海外の仕事で会った外国人から交際の申し込みを受け、その度に、婚約者がいて無理であると、断ってきたのですが、諦めてくれず、私に会うために、「日本に長期滞在でやって来るつもりだ」と昨日、メールが来ました。返信を次のように考えました。どうしたらうまく断れるか、お知恵をお借りできればと存じます。 I think I have to tell you that I will get married soon. And I am sorry but there is no possibility that we will be closer. I apologize that this caused you pain, and it causes me pain as well to write a letter like this. But I believe that we are good colleagues from now on.I hope you will understand. 仕事上で関係は続くため、あまり邪険にもできないのですが、しっかり断った方がよいとも思っています。お忙しい中恐縮ですが宜しくお願い申し上げます。

I have to tell you, I will get married with my fiance soon. の後に、次の一文を入れてみてはどうでしょうか？ I really love him. 日本人は、愛を犠牲にしてまでも御見合いで結婚決めるという 不思議なイメージを持っている外国の方が、いまだに存在して いるので。 I apologize that this caused you pain, and it causes me pain as well to write a letter like this. 日本人的な表現で質問者さんの優しさが現れていますね。ただ、相手は日本人じゃないので誤解を招く可能性があるかと。一度も交際していないですし、これは無くてもいいのでは？代わりに、 I hope you meet your destiney in near future. としてみては、いかがでしょうか？
No,１です。質問者様のことが心配になり、もう一言述べさせていただきたいと思います。私の周囲にも外国人から猛烈なアタックを受けた女性がいて、「この話は終わりました！」と怒りを込めて宣言するまでアタックが続きました。で、終わった後は彼はけろっとして他の女性を追いかけています。そういう「文化」なのか、、。場合によってはあなたの上司や彼の上司に言って、担当を変えてもらうことも視野に入れておく必要があるかも知れませんね。強くなってください。応援しています。
日本人女性特有の奥ゆかしさが出ていて余計その男性の恋心に火をつけてしまいそうな文章ですね。 I think I have to tell you that とか、it causes me pain などはいらないと思いますよ。 I will get married soon. There is no possibility that we will be closer. だけで良いと思います。

私（男です）もこれは何度も無理といっているのに あきらめてくれないのならばビシッと断るべきではないかと思います。 「無理です。あなたとの関係は仕事だけです」と。
お礼
早速にお返事を頂いて有難うございます。早急にあっさりと返信を打ちたいと思います。大変勉強になりました。
わたしも外国の人と接しますが、、この文章はあまり良くないですね。 日本人的には完璧な内容ですが、すでに何度も「婚約者がいて無理」と伝えているのにアプローチしてくる、あきらめの悪い人物でしょう？ I apologize,,,以下は相手に「脈がある」という思い込みをさせるだけです。前段だけで終わり。短ければ短いほどいいです。もしまた何か言われたら「私の彼は世界一素敵な男性で、、」とのろけ以外一切言わないことです。お分かりと思いますが、、。
お礼
早速にお返事を頂きまして有難うございます。 何がこれまでいけなかったのか、少し分かった気がします。 大変勉強になりました。本当に有難うございました。

- any difficulty this cause
以下の文について教えてください。 We apologize in advance for any difficulty this causes and hope that the limited services we will be providing prove adequate. 1. any difficulty this causes の部分は、文法的どう解釈すればよろしいのでしょうか。 any 名詞 this 名詞（複数形） という形に見えるのですが、こういう使い方は一般的なのでしょうか。 2. difficulty causes を「本件によるご不便」と訳されていたのですが、 不便の意味で difficulty を使うのでしょうか。 また、causes を本件 => 今回の件（改装工事） という使い方もするのでしょうか。 ※ 話の流れでは、店の改装工事を行うという前提になっています。 以上、よろしくお願いします。

- Harry Potterの洋書の中でのOne sentenceについて
今、Harry Potterの英語版を読んでいます。 その中で一つセンテンスで判らないものがありました。 "I must also warn you that if you do anything like this again, I will have no choice but to expel you." とあります。 この最後の"I will have no choice BUT to expel you."の部分のButがわかりません。 "I will have no choice AND expel you."の方がしっくりきます。 でもアメリカ人の友達に聞いたら、”Andじゃ変だね”と言われたのですが何で変なのかが判りません。 他の本を読んでいても、このButの使い方が何度も出ていて、不思議で仕方がありませんでした。 どなたか、お願いします。教えて下さい。

I'm starting new phase in my life, I'm closing my past and starting a new journey in life. We have to take chances in life and I'm confident that my choice is correct. I left my night job because it was the same company my friend works at too this way the connection with her will be cut. Hopefully we can still be friends but I think she has closed the connection with me already. As for myself my health is improving with every passing day. The feelings I had for her are getting weaker so I believe my new journey will begin and this will bring closer to this chapter in my life. I'm sorry if I cause you any confusion with my e-mails but now I know how I really feel. You are very kind and understanding through this time in my life and I'm grateful for that. I hope that we can start again together. ほぼ理解していますが、内容が内容だけに確実にわかりたいのでお願いします。
