I am the widowed mom of a wonderful little boy....
I have dealt with serious hardships, and I thought I knew exactly where i stood...
Tonight, while out with friends, my son's Dad's(my husband died five years ago)cousin approached me to let me know how serious he felt about me....
i guess maybe I've known he has felt for me befoe now, but I just denied it.
He claims to have loved me for years, and finally wanted to have it out in the open....he flat out said, "look, this may be hard to hear, but I love you....it isn't going to change"
I care for him alot too. He was always our best friend, and I care for him even more deeply because of the loss we have both shared...but I am so shaken up.
I do love him, but not in the way he wants... I guess I could see how he thinks we could be compatable, but there would be serious family issues with this, even though we aren't related...
this family has had enough hurt...
what can I say that won't hurt him? He's like a best friend?
