BBM made me change my mind and I decided to take a chance. To make a long story short, we've been together 7 months now and very happy. If it wasn't for BBM, I would have never found my own Brokeback Mountain. Thanks Ennis! And Thanks to ANG LEE for showing everyone the isolation and the fear we experienced!

Thanks for sharing such a life-affirming story, vince. This miracle of a movie continues to work miracles in individual lives.
I notice from your profile that you've been a member since March, but this is your first post. Your voice is very welcome here! I think I recall seeing you around on the old board on IMDb. I don't visit there very much these days; BetterMost just seems more...well, better!
Cheers,
Scott

You are so right, Scott, I sometimes sneak in there (imdb) and every time it scares the hell out of me and I quickly return to our safe bettermost! ;D

Hey, Vince! Good to see ya over here! Been reading your posts over at IMDb and enjoying them very much. :) As I mentioned over there, I'm in South Florida, too, and know from the fun of being alone with Hurricane Wilma. Sorry to hear of the tough time you went through during that, but I'm glad things are turning around in such a nice way for you.
Your kids are beautiful, Carla! So much positive energy coming from their eyes. They look like lovely old souls.
Ellemeno:
Vince, I remember seeing your name for a long time too. That's an extremely touching story. I think it's really important to hear what it used to be like.
Carla, your children look peaceful and happy.
I'm glad you are both here. Both your stories are proof that some important things are heading in the right direction.
Welcome to BetterMost. I've been here since March and love it.

I was so happy to read your story, Vince, and so glad you posted it here! I hope to see you around often. In the full moon chat earlier this week we talked about the importance of not giving up on love, that it is worth the risk. So many coworkers and friends of mine who are single have given up. They substitute watching a movie or TV show, or turn to drugs or alcohol. That can not take the place of finding love, even if it's only for a short time--the two months that Jack and Ennis had.
I love the photo of your two children, Carla! If you want, I would be glad to show you how to make it fit in the frame better, like JakeTwist (Jane) showed me!
