And now , the end is near

Karen,

Since this is where all the planning discussion is taking place, I'll ask here. Do we guys have to wear matching cummerbunds and thongs?



Barb,

Interesting that he told Ryan so much. I thought guys didn't REALLY talk?

You're joking, right?

It makes perfect sense to me that he would have this talk with his son. If he has these thoughts and feelings, why wouldn't he tell his son?

Maybe he did want it to get back to you, Karen. Maybe he does consider your son to be a source of unconditional love. It just seems to me that any man would want his son to know him, man to man, not just as some authority figure, when the son grows up.

This might have been his version of apology, but to your son, not to you. I can't imagine he would believe that if your son reports the convo back to you, then it "counts" as an apology to you.

All that matters now is that you have been there for your son, and now you're moving to a beautiful new time in your relationship with B.

Thanks,

Joe
