Honesty is always the best policy. When I meet someone for the first time, I go with no makeup, just clean clothes and my hair combed. I go as me in my usual state of being; if he likes me and wants to see me again, I dress for him. No one likes to be lied to or led away from the truth. Be yourself and hope he likes you for you.
May you always have LOVE to share, HEALTH to spare & FRIENDS that care.

Really good question.. Yes I do think it is alienating but I believe you said it since perhaps you doubted his honesty, or perhaps feel like you are just some kind of pit stop on his visit.
I think the last line is your expression of what you feel that this is not a well connected connection.
I would not send it..

I guess the question that you need to answer for yourself is what outcome you want from this. If you want to further the relationship, I would probably do one thing and if it wasn't important to further the relationship than I would do another.
I think that it is entirely possible for a person to remember someone for a long time and even to think of them often. As someone said once, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"...it takes most of us a long time to gain a clear perspective of ourselves...let alone another person. Furthermore, the view that others have of us or that we have of others is a rather personal matter.
Honesty can be tactful or it can be frank.

Thank you all for the comments.
“the view that others have of us or that we have of others is a rather personal matter.”--------I think so. Perhaps I should just feel joyful in his sharing it with me…….
“it is alienating” …. “Honesty can be tactful” -------- That’s why im having a 2nd thought about sending it.--Perhaps we think too much & too deep in connecting people, especially in the beginning stage . I remember someone said, “ all we have in common is universal, ordinary love & pleasantries”
