looks like there are several meeting around here.
Wish I could but I can't trust him to go on his own yet - guess I will take him there.
I have never been so I'm sure it will be interesting.
Will he have to say anything? Not sure that he would anyway.

He's kind of nervous about being out there about it.
Embarrassed and ashamed -
I'm still kind of pissed and angry and heartbroken that he
didn't come to me earlier about it. We've always been kind of close that way.
