Hello shezbut: Well... the Skeezyks is well beyond middle age...

But he also always has struggled with self-esteem... always has... always will (except for the periods of time in his youth when he thought of himself as being tantamount to the second coming of you-know-who...)

At least that part of his life is long since gone.
The Skeezyks' life has been just one big confusing, destructive mess. From his perspective, it can't come to an end too soon. However, where you have your daughters, the Skeezyks has his wife. She has no one else... So the Skeezyks has to do his best to keep-on keepin'-on, as they say... (Not that this has stopped him from tryin' on a couple of occasions in the past...)
The Skeezyks does reply to a post or two, here on PC, occasionally.

He does so, not because he considers himself to be of any particular significance. Rather he does so with the hope that something he shares of his own experience may turn out to have had some meaning for the member whose Thread he replied to. Who knows? That & the fact that being here on PC helps to keep him out of mischief...
Anyway, thanks for sharing this bit of yourself with us. The Skeezyks sends warm thoughts your way with the hope that you will be able to find deep peace within...
