Unfortunately the last link I sent you to the life stories of 118 persons who had had relationships with adults as children was deleted by the admin; I understand you none-the-less had a chance to check out that work. Her is another, this one follows the cases of 9 persons into middle age, you might find it interesting to see how their stories turn out?

Given my situation, I think reading positive stories and adult-child sexual relationships would be counter productive.

The interesting thing about the 9 accounts is that their lives are all very 'normal' by middle age. The most surprising thing to me was that most of them lost interest in homosexuality by their late 20s or early 30s.

Where do you see yourself in your mid-40s?

If you're anything like others who have been through some similar experiences, you'll have a masters degree, a wife, one daughter, and a steady job...

I am gay. I don't see myself being alive in my mid 40's. And if I am I will be some alcoholic hobo sleeping in ditches in the west county, or in prison because it's a better life than sleeping in ditches begging for food. Being a sex offender, even if only a virtual one is the end of your life in the UK.

Statistically unlikely. More probably you will have a masters degree, a wife, and one daughter at 45. But if that destructive fantasy keeps you going and gets you through, well then, who am I to argue with that --

Why are you telling everyone they are going to have a wife? Homosexuality is a real thing you know. It's not just folk pretending.
