hey mentalfloss...sorry to hear about your father's passing...a word of advice from me to you...don't ever forget the face of your father...as to your friend who is a boy...you should not have had to explain anything to him...he should have held you and offered his strength to you right from the start...any person who would use another's pain to gain some gratification isn't worth the time of day...this is a boy my friend...treat him as such...
Kick him to the curb and get on with it...as a matter of fact...slam dunk the boys boys...so to speak...lol...I dont mean to make light of the situation but take a look around you...are you happy?...are you safe?...nuff said...tc my PC compadre...
