Allow Me To Introduce Handy Andy

Hello All:

As you may recall, I am a gay man and my partner of almost 21 years is Andy. For a while I didn't feel safe having Andy come to this site. I was just starting on the road to healing and felt funny talking to Andy about my sexual abuse issues. But you are such a great group of people, I know he will find much support. Support that he could really use right now.

For the time being, Andy will mainly post in the Family and Friends area. And I will mainly post in the Gay Survivors Forum. That way, we each can have a bit of space to express ourselves, without worrying too much about what the other might be thinking. I'm sure you understand what I mean, am I right?

However, I think I should make it clear that Andy is also a survivor. Right now, his own issues don't feel as pressing as mine. But in time that may change. As Andy gets to know some of the survivors here, and their significant others, he may feel the need to share his own story. In which case, I want him to feel free to post just about anything, anywhere. Does that make sense?

So I just wanted you to know that today or tomorrow Handy Andy will be joining you. And if you like, you could add a little greeting to this thread to make him feel welcome.

I know he's in good hands!

Thanks everyone.

Jasper
 
Andy,

Welcome to MS. It is a great bunch of people and I hope you feel welcome.

Andy it will be a pleasure to hear from you. We have heard a lot of good things about you.
 
Welcome Andy!
You've come to a good site for information and support. I too am an SA survivor partner of a survivor. So geuss we have a little in common. I do think there are some other partners here who are also survivors of SA & other abuses.
Share when and what you can WHEN you WANT to...
Just wanted to say welcome and from what Jasper has shared so far, I think we all will have the blessings of learning from you and with you.

May Peace Fill Us All, Sammy

Hi Andy, and Jasper, good for you, taking the step to invite him here.

I hope that both of you find MS helpful, safe and healing.
 
Thanks for the very warm welcome. From the little Jasper has told me many of you have been quite helpful in this time of discovery and that means a great deal to me personally, I look forward to getting to know each of you. Thanks again. :rolleyes:
 
Hi Handy Andy,

I have only been coming to this site a few weeks since a dear friend told me of his abuse. I have been overwhelmed with the help , support and friendliness of everyone. I'm sure you'll find that too!

Love, Solo
 
Hi Again to everyone. I'm finally here after a sort of delay, partly due to the board being down due to a software update. Then I was further delayed due to the arrival of my baby Bantam Chicks this past thursday A.M. and I've been bonding ever since. Private messages are always welcome!! especially as I get used to the forum. :D
 
Welcome to the place that makes the Twilight Zone appear to be just another song on MTV.

Welcome to the little fellows, suspect you can pm me on issues as I still live next to the only independent "Ma and Pa" chichen hatchery in this area. They should oay me as I fenced several acres and put out a big dog and no foxes or coyotes since I did that.

I do wander, have to hot 100 degrees, retired, bored the largest wildfire in the US is a few miles west and just destroying my Pueblo County, Colorado.

I am in farm country well east but smoke, etc.

Hey, glad you are here.
Hugs to all and little kisses for the chicks..

Joe
