Sweetie -
If you take the person you're describing to Puerto Rico
You're going to intimately become familiar with
the prison and justice system
in an alien country.
How is someone who can't hold a job at thirty
going to buy a sailboat?
Is he 'flying lazy circles' waiting for one of his parents to die
so he can INHERIT the money?
That's why they call them dreams, hon.
I just feel like it is so sad to see this incredible person turn into a monster and waste his gifts. When hes drinking hes a completely different person.
I was your age once.
I understand that it looks like
there's no *way* someone like me
could possibly understand what
you're feeling and trying to say.
Nobody understood me either.
But I hope you'll read that sentence
and someday understand
there's not a single person on this forum
that hasn't lived what you are describing.
And spent half their lives
in misery
waiting for the 'good guy'
to win out.
He never did.
We're just trying to show you that what you are describing
is the rest of your young life
every day, week, month year....
and it's not going to change.
We're just trying to help you avoid
turning into us.
WHen we first got here.
That's all.
