Hey, I'm not defending my contact with him....I have the "inner voice" reminding me that it will amount to nothing for me. But, you know, we have this lifelong bond from childhood in rural Appalachia. I can't imagine how my life would have been growing up there without his presence...we were so unique. I do admire and like his wife. I don't fantasize about romance with him either, but at the same time, I acknowlege to myself that our communcation is the closest thing I have to a "relationship" with a man. Hmm...
