[QUOTE="Kalahou, post: 722799, member: 19617"] Sorry Copa. I'm following along. My take is that is sounds like "rinse / repeat" ~ It appears clear that - [U]you[/U] - are not ready to "[I]let him be"[/I] .... It sounds like he is handling and figuring things out, as he should be ~ as he really wants to do himself - and he is making progress! I know - granted it not the way you would like to seem him doing it. But he is a man now (almost 30?), and his walk on the lonesome highway is "for his steps alone" as for us all. He knows your love is with him. I understand you don't want to let him go. I know it is a big loss and scarey for you to "let go". So much of your own identity is tied up to him. But it is a necessary loss for all parents of adult children. Take care, dear sister. I know [I]you are going to be alright[/I] .... [/QUOTE]
