Sign your post and come out and argue like a man--or like a woman.
This is *not* a setup.
I thought about giving my "five year" schpiel in my prior post, but I thought it would be presumptuous.
Who knows if this person has been out for fifteen years until we ask?
I thought about the "setup" factor and because of the person's obvious pain, figured if it was less than five, mentioning my "five year" rule for taking people's testimonials with a grain of salt *gently*---because this person is hurting.
I'm rarely mistaken for "cute"---it's not one of my goals in life.
Get over yourself.
I really do want to know how long this kid's been out. A week? A month? Two years? Ten?
I once knew a very nice lady, a wife and mother, who had, at a very dark point in her life, been a crack whore. I don't know this kid's whole story, but some details, while they may be program-exaggerated, are unlikely to be program planted. If you think for even one moment that I would verbally shred this vulnerable kid, then I can't help you.
(Assuming that this isn't some thirty-five year old guy in his mother's basement doing the internet thing---which you never can be sure of on the 'Net, but which I think unlikely in *this* case.)
