Yearning, I think that most people have these little kids floating around inside of them. Its just kind of a result of a culture where people don't really understand how to love and parent. But there really is only so much growing up that a body can do without being totally miserable. One of the biggest reason that people need to make love is so that they can be kids together. And sex is always held up as this act of utter maturity, but it is really one of the silliest things that people do. And its one of the ways that people can meet some of these deep childish needs. So don't start thinking that you will be all grown up when you no longer have any little kid inside of you, because that day just isn't going to come. And hopefully one day you will meet someone special and they will want to know this little part of you, and you will get to know their little kid too. And as for now, your T is there to love and help you love this little part of you, and that means you are going to need her very much, and that is ok. Anyone who had a part of them like that would have those needs too. And needs are there because they need answers, not so they can be told to go away (because that never works).
