Talk about a coincidence!
« on: April 06, 2014, 12:11:43 AM »
Hiya All

When my daughter was 17, 33 years ago, this May 13, so was her ‘boyfriend‘. I forget when they first met….. and parted

There was a double 17th  birthday party at my place and mucho peopleo and the minister who came wanted some whiskey and I was able to comply….for the other men too.

That is the last I remember of Scott, who was going to be a priest---uh oh!

Tonight, I telephoned his parents, whom I had met those years ago, and I even took Scott in when he ran away from home one time (I equate that to D swallowing a bottle of aspirin, as he was afraid of his father\s reaction.). I then allowed his father to come and have a talk with Scott about ‘whatever’, at my place. (Scott wanted to be a priest so I ‘wondered about him’, so therefore never worried about my D.)

When I learned, 2010,  my D is a lesbian, I finally decided who to call, and finally reached Scott’s father tonight. Before I had a chance get to the point, he said, “Scott is gay!”. When I chuckled openly, as what he had prefaced his statement with all led me to believe that he and his wife were fine with it, and when I said my D. is a lesbian, he said it was too bad their friendship hadn’t lasted (before my D. went off ro University) a little longer, as there were all kinds of gay gals and guys and pool parties at their place.

My intention was to ask if either parent ever suspected that my D. was an L, and he said that when Scott brought my D.. there the first time, daddy said, “This is the girl for Scott!” OH , I love that!. We laughed.

I suspected Scott, but his parents didn’t suspect my D. There is nothing stupid about them, and I wonder how I suspected their son and they not my daughter.

Just a coincidence, and Daddy asked me to please keep in touch re my D. If there were any changes in these past 33 years….even though I told him we had emails but not to settle anything!

Just an amusing FYI

Love Izzy

That's pretty delightful, Izzy!
I'm so glad you were able to connect with someone who knew them back then.

Something healing about that.

And it's good to hear your voice, Miz Izz....

love
