I thought this story was awesomely good. And so powerfully written.

I was like Shane at 16. Not str8, not gay. Emotionally disconnected. The Boy Who Could Not Feel. But no Will ever came along to wake me up.

Yes, the ending was right. Shane does run after Will. Not because he loves him (he is not yet capable of love), but because he realises that he has finally found someone who can teach him how to FEEL.

"I missed feeling him next to me."

New possibilities have suddenly opened up in Shane's life. It is a story of hope.

I never thought of it that way before. "Learning to feel". Interesting slant.
that was meant to be "timmy"  [message #4876 is a reply to message #4873] Sun, 06 October 2002 17:13 Go to previous message

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
