Re: NOT cameras, India, or chid abuse

Well c_a, how could I go wrong if we are in your prayers (seriously, I mean that). I intend to keep the 'task' light for both of us but still very clear. The LG will absolutely be first.

I am not interested in future polices although that would be a nice side effect. I don't think I'm fooling myself by believing that it is in her best interest. There is another person in my life that has great difficulty with puberty for reasons I can't say because it could narrow my identity to a small group of people. Because of that, I have learned a lot about puberty in girls. I believe that if she knows that my love for her includes sexual love but that it is 'controlled' and she can feel sexy, safe, and totally free to be herself around me at all times, it will help her understand her own feelings when they 'hit'. Also, I believe it will build trust and, if she ever gets in trouble or needs serious advice, maybe she will come to me before acting out in a harmful way.

I do love her and I would absolutely ask her to marry me in another world. But my intent with this talk is to be honest and to be helpful for both of us in this world. She is such a precious 'child of god', if anything seems to be causing her stress, I will back out and attempt to repair any damage with tears and kisses.

For my own interests, there will be one person in the world (besides you all) who knows the real me. I think she will still think I'm pretty ok. That is my dream and wish.
