Gardener, I read your "request" on Gypsy's thread. So here I am reading because I am curious. I have only read your last post. First off, anybody who would call spooning (and resulting involuntary muscle development) sexual abuse is not working on all cylinders. If that was true, I am also a sexual abuser....BULLSH!T.
Amen, brother.

I guess I'll have to now. Shame though. I married their mom when stepson was 13. His bio dad died when stepson was 21. Recently, stepson said to me not the expected, "I've always considered you like a father." But, "I've always considered you to be my real father." Boy, did I cry at that. It doesn't get any better than that. Don't know if I want to keep him at a safe distance. With him, I'll stay the same and take my chances.
