I must admit I've become a little smitten with you, until you couldn't reveal your age. All the angst I have felt dealing with my alcholic friend came flooding back. The inability to be forthright. Avoiding questions, are you all the same?
What's the big deal? You are a man. Be proud of your age. It seems all your banter is superficial. I am disappointed.
Vindication. Thank you, dear. I'm glad I'm not alone. A little substance goes such a long way. Frank has so much to give and to share but he's throttled down and only wants to play.
