I have this fear

that one day, some little kid will knock on my front door, and say, not "Hello, Dad", but, "Hello, Granddad!" After all, those teenage days seem so hazy and faraway now, and one never knows what might have happened. :D

Anybody else got similar fears about their past - imagined as much as real - coming back to haunt 'em? ;)

    The g/f I had before I met my wife supposedly had a miscarriage shortly before she confessed to me that she had been sleeping with a guy she worked with. She chose me over him and blah blah blah and that was it for the relationship. A few years ago I wound up delivering to her house. We started talking about life after our relationship and she mentioned that she had two kids. It was a quick conversation and I never got any real details but it has been bothering me recently. I would not put it past this woman to have never actually had the miscarriage, carried the pregnancy to term and never told the father, whether it were the other guy or myself.

    Thank GAWD for you, Fins!

    Nope, never had those thoughts, but this was the best laugh I had all day. Good job!

    I think only men have to worry about unknown off-spring showing up at the door. :)

    yeah just how would that work for a woman? "oh wow, I totally forgot about all of those changes my body went through those 9 months that i was pregnant with you, feeling you kicking and squirmming around in there, and then the agonizing pain of giving birth to you! so, where have you been all of this time? did the gypsies that i sold you to take good care of you?" ;):D:)

    I don't fear exactly what Fins is speaking of.
    However, my past is quite fuzzy/hazy.
    And it comes up & hauntes me quite a bit.
    Maybe it doesn't scare me but it is pritty screwed up.
    Try filling out a job application or some very important paperwork
    and not knowing what date, month, what year.
    Or

    When I was younger, teenage years till around age 30 all
    I did or wanted to do was party.
    Many a year run together.
    Which causes me to loose times, dates, months, years.
    I have no idea about certain events that my friends
    tell me I attended or whatever.
    When I am told a story about my past many times I do not remember it.
    Part of a story, yeah perhaps.

    I agree! Thank God for Fins!

    And no, I never worry about someone knocking at my door and calling me Grandad but then, I'm only 27. ;)

    Anyway... You're not much older? You must have started early! YOU DIRTY BOY! :D
