Profile text:We are an intergenerational couple who know the deeply fulfilling emotional and physical bond between a Dad and son. We share this profile and the e-mail associated with it, hoping to connect with others who understand, seek, or have known the special kind of loving relationship we have.
Creating and posting a profile here was a big decision for us as it went against our behavior of keeping "our truth" concealed from those around us. Even when we decided to take the chance and look for others like us, we weren't sure how our unconventional relationship would be received.
But to our surprise and relief, almost everyone that has reached out has done so with wonderful messages of support, understanding and encouragement. Many of those came from others who read between the proverbial lines (or know basic Latin) and appreciate and understood how fulfilling a love like ours can be even when the rest of the world says it's somehow "wrong." Thanks to those men, we now know that even if our relationship is outside the norm, it's one of which we shouldn't be ashamed nor something we should keep hidden.
And we're ready to embark on new adventures together, stepping out of the shadows once and for all. Perhaps it will be just to make friends virtually... to chat, to encourage and support each other, to acknowledge the special love we know. Perhaps it will be to meet over drinks or dinner... to spend time with others with similar relationships, to enjoy the knowledge that others are like us. Perhaps -- especially if you're an older man, another father who often wondered "what if I had...?" -- together we can have you witness our bond, inviting you to be part of it in the most intimate way imaginable. An open sharing without shame or fear.
