Thank you too, Mason.

And no, you're not a pest by posting so much about your YF. I really crave your posts! They're so full of details and they transpire love for your YF.

I really am interested in helping my YF in whatever problems he faces. I know this is difficult without seeing each other physically, other than thru the webcam and stuff, but somehow I sense that my comforting words reach him, and that his love and respect also reach out to me (well except in the cases when he gets a bit mad at the world).

His circumstances are a bit hard, and I know that he relies on me to somehow comfort him in those times. I know his "angry" words last Saturday weren't really intented to hurt me. It was just that he was feeling mad for some other reasons. He gets in a lot of arguing with his cousin sometimes and it leaves him exhausted and worried and not really wanting to talk to anyone.

Then at the same time I see the quick way in which he turend from mad at the world to honest and happy again, using "lol" words and wanting us to share that special "motto" for the two of us! I really felt appreciated, because you know it's kinda significant that a 13yo, in the middle of this quickly evolving life and world, has actually the intention of sharing a "motto" with an older guy as me. This demonstrates our special friendship and all the confidence we share.

I wish you the best with your YF. It happens as if right now you see the same relationship from a bit different perspective, one that takes into account the fact that he is maturing and becoming a bit more independent, even with this girlfriend "affair" he has I am sure though, that he still loves you tons and that he NEEDS you, man! That's incredible the connection that you mention between you too! And I pray God that He keeps you two on the way of becoming best friends forever! Which I know you'll be no matter what comes....

Please let us know about how things are going. Specially since you mentioned "Exciting news", well let me say I'm excited too because I really love reading about your relationship, it gives me such example and motivation to go on my own friendship with 'A'.

Love
