Cleverly sinister creation. You certainly are creative.

And thank you for writing your experience and sharing it. My experiences of teen-love were different because I was so very closeted that I did not come close to acknowledging that I was gay and attracted to guys, but it's really touching to read your story. You describe teenage angst so well.

Thanks for this. I like the way you write. It's easy, interesting to read and draws one in.

I'm reading this without a break between chapters but I think it's better read more slowly. Maybe I should put it aside for a bit. Too many good chapters one on top of the other is a rich diet. Lol.

🤪

Wow! This has become a very horny sex-filled story. Actually I don't care too much for any story any longer nor for the characters and their interactions. I am just taken with seeing who does what to whom and how they do it.

You are so damn funny. That outfit would brand him a perv for sure. LMAO. Wanted to just to skip on to the next chapter and had to stop myself to make sure I commented. Your writing deserves remarking - it's way too good.

I wondered if I had read this before but there's no comment so perhaps not. I look forward to a good read. I love the way you write and this story is off to a very enticing start.

I was quite shocked to find I had read this story before because while reading it this second time I had no recollection of any of the details at all nor of the characters, and yet it is a very remarkable story and one that should not be easy to forget. Perhaps this is a reflection of where my old mind is, though I hope not. I really like your writing style: bold, expressive, compelling and here such suspense created that one must read on. The characters you have created are weirdly interesting and absorbing, though the sex was pretty good and I always enjoy that. I hope never to come across any of these men in real life, except maybe the cop though we did not see enough of him in action to really get to know him, but he seemed pretty good in bed.

Wow. This has some of my history here in the comments. Amazing! I had not realized that. I'm struggling with this story at the moment as it is making me very emotional so not sure I will continue just at present. But I have moved and found a better accommodation with a landlady closer to the centre of things and a slightly larger room with more perks. It feels safe and I'm even thinking of it as my home even though it is still far from my ideal of total independence. Maybe that is a pipe dream at my age anyway. The thing is I have no family close by and feel very isolated and alone, though I have made some friends in the area though no close friends as such. Being reminded about the difficulties of being gay is a pain to me. I wish I had never come out and explored this gay thing. It would have been better to continue to live my hetero life, but I never realized that until now. It sucks being gay.

I need a little chapter list to tick off chapters read so I know where I am.

Found a comment of mine so I did read this before. Lol. No harm in reading again to refresh my memory before I tackle the new story. This is an easy read and such a pleasant change from some of the stuff I have been reading.

Hats off to Eric for the progress he is making. He is doing so well at it. I love my computer and the internet and wouldn't be without them but at the same time they do terrify me. I can't keep up with all the bewildering changes they insist on making all the time. One day I will need an Andy to come and instruct me on what I should do but in the meantime I enjoy what I know works for me. Sometimes even negotiating this GA site confuses me and I get lost somewhere and have a struggle to get back.

Got a notification of the latest book in the series and I am trying to pick up on it all again. I skimmed the first book just dipping in the first and last chapters but I don't remember much of this second book so I am attempting a second read. For me personally I am finding the story somewhat unsettling since I am myself, I guess, feeling somewhat unsettled by the changes in my life and the uncertainties of the future. It is good that you are highlighting the difficulties of an elderly gay man trying to cope with life, though it seems Eric here is doing a splendid job of getting to grips with issues long neglected. I am made accutely aware of just how different things are from place to place reading Eric's story and trying to relate. I thought the English aspect would be easy to pick up on but it's not. It's as foreign as any other nation. I am hoping to find encouragement in Eric's progress though, as I myself am feeling very left behind and struggling to settle in a new country and a new environment with limited means and desperately trying to maintain some vestige of independence. All this said that I might just say thank you for writing and sharing Eric's story.

Thanks. As you said it is an easy read. I like the discipline of the number of syllables in each line, like a haiku. The simplicity of the structure contrasts with the complex nature of the difficult and heart-rending content. Very nicely done. You inspired me to try the format. Here's mine: A NEW BEGINNING My life now A not unpleasant room Beautiful between mountains and sea Slowly building new connections making new friends Dealing with the problems of old age Learning to make do with New limits.

I'm glad to be reading this story. I love that you are passionate about mental health. I grew up in an era when it was not even on the radar and the more I learn today the more I realize just how closed off that made most of my generation, and me in particular. Is it too late to learn and to heal? I feel I'm learning from stories like this - better than I would reading an academic text on the subject. Thank you.

A beautiful story and such an optimistic outcome. Thank you for this story of love and hope and restoration and rebuilding. Such a lot that is positive in it inspite of the awful circumstances they came out of. Beautiful.

Thank you for this very moving story. I was deeply touched and fell in love with the two of them. What a beautiful love! I have to compliment you on your English too. You did such a good job writing in a language not your own. Very impressive because it was better written than many could manage whose language is English.

Wow! Quite an amazing tale with all its twists and turns. A very interesting read. Thank you.

Started reading this as a reminder of old times. I see you are writing a lot. Well done. You always string together a good story in your own special style.

The makings of a great family story spiced with hot sex. I enjoy reading the sex bits because I never had the experience since I spent most of my life married to a dear woman who was my best friend.

Wow! What a chapter! Big changes afoot for Jeff which he had in no way anticipated. Look forward to seeing where you take the story.

Thank you. I was deeply touched. Too much in his story is like my own. I wish you had written a happy ending for Alan rather than leaving us to imagine whatever we wanted. I'm not sure I can imagine it, though I hope for it so much.

Thank you so much for this lovely story. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Wow! So intense! So beautiful! So wonderfully heart-warmingly satisfying! Thank you!
