I am thankful that you fell in love with BBM and that you found us!  No apologies necessary.  I, for one, will talk about BBM ad nauseum until someone tells me to shut up - just ask any of my RL friends :).  And I bet most people here feel the same way, or we wouldn't be here!

There was a transforming power in my own experience with BBM.  It won't allow me to quit it, and I don't want to, in any case.

So post away!!

I've often wondered if Ennis flipped Cassie when he was "puttin the blocks to her" like he did Alma. And if he did, why didn't this raise some suspicions? Should that be taken as an indication that he didn't? And if he didn't, why not?

Pure speculation here, but I would say Ennis and Cassie did also have anal sex.  In my reading of crime thrillers, sexual behavior - turn-ons, turn-offs, rituals, etc. - are characteristic to personalty and do not change over time.

CarlaMom2:
Good points on that.

I guess there's no way of knowing much about Cassie's and Ennis' sexual habits. But some heterosexual couples engage in anal sex, so if he flipped her, I don't know that Cassie would jump to the conclusion that he's gay.

But another thing. I gather one reason Ennis flips Alma is that he's missing Jack. By the time Cassie comes along, Jack is back in the picture, so Ennis might be less inclined to flip.
