Is there any Groups or Organizations out there for us ?

I really want to go to some kind of group where you sit around in chairs and talk about it. I want to know other boylovers or at least people similar to me.

Not sure what you mean.
I don't think pedos want to identify themselves as such, by meeting up in real life.

There are some sex abuser groups (often run by govt agencies) but I think a pedo meeting group wouldnt work and as popular as syphilis to the community.

In Germany, there is the Project Dunkelfled that helps both offenders and non-offenders. From what I understand, they are very humane, accepting, and because there is no mandatory report law in Germany, completely confidential. They offer group therapy and (if needed,) one-on-one therapy completely free of charge. I've heard many great things about them.

I've heard information from a reliable source that some researchers are trying to start up a similar program in the US. If I understand right, it is Abel Sexual Abuse Prevention (ASAP). They've got a long way to go, but one of the heads has asked a friend and me to offer them advice and feedback once things have progressed for them. I think they're currently looking for a multi-million dollar grant, and while that's totally understandable and necessary, I can't imagine anyone would want to provide money to an organization to help pedophiles. It may be a long time.

In Canada, there is Circles of Support, but they only help those who already have offended and have been convicted. They try to help offenders transition into communities so that they are less likely to reoffend.

Pink, I didn't know you were also member of VirPed :p

Anyway, I'm a member of VirPed and B4U-ACT, and I can say that while I really like the former, I'm rather bitter about the latter.

I joined B4U-ACT before VirPed was around, but only posted there a few times. They don't take an official stance on whether sex with children is wrong, and at first, that seemed okay to me. However, in time, it started to feel like most of the people there wanted age of consent laws to be abolished. It felt like they only discouraged sex with children because it's illegal -- not because it's wrong. The fact that they didn't take the stance that it is wrong was enough for me to understand that they thought it was okay. There are many law-abiding pedophiles there, but as far as I'm concerned, they're just a more subtle NAMBLA with a fancy name.
