Met the parents!

[Lindsey]

Thanks Betsi. I was kind of seeing red flags before I even met her... just from hearing her on the other end of the phone when he was with me and stories Scott told me about how strict she was when he was growing up. He wasn't allowed to play hockey in case he got hurt. He could not show interest in girls because he got in big trouble... he still has problems showing affection, even if it's just him and I sitting there. He can't just be the first one to reach out and hold my hand. He said it's silly but a part of him inside just gives him a feeling that it's a bad thing to do.
I hope things get better, and I hope everything can work out... I do really like him. He is extremely good to me. He will do anything to make me smile, and that is so important to me. I just hope that eventually the tie to his mom will loosen a bit.
