Hello! My name is Alex. I've spent years  searching for a place to connect with others that understand the bittersweet nature of being in a relationship with a member of one's family.  While I have had some notable success that has lead to the development of some amazing friendships, most of what I've found is disbelief, scorn, or being treated like I'm just there to satisfy the fantasies of those that have "incest fetishes".

My lifestyle is more than some kinky abstraction. My relationship is real, not some sort of pornography script. It has all the uninteresting drama of any relationship, with the added fact of having been forced to create an entire code of behavior in order to both pursue our dreams together while keeping everything about us hidden.

I suppose I should come out and clarify who exactly I'm in this relationship with, it's become difficult for me to even admit it after years of practiced denial. My son and I live together as a couple. Our relationship began well before that, but had not developed into what it is now for most of the time we've been intimate with each other.

I'll stop rambling, I just wanted to say that I'm so glad I found the marriage equality blog and was advised to join this forum. I'm looking forward to finding what it has to offer.

Welcome Alex, you're not alone in finding the incest fetish crowd tiresome, they really do make it hard for people who are in real relationships who just want to talk to others in similar situations. Actually that's a good part of why this forum exists, so I'm pretty sure you're going to like it here Smile

hiya AlexG and welcome to the forums! I'm glad you found your way here and hopefully, you'll find some extra resources.
I know what you mean about "an entire code of behaviour". Things get to be second-nature at some point. If you need some time shedding your day-to-day misdirection, no worries
hope I see you around!

You are safe and welcome here.

It is wonderful to hear about a committed relationship such as yours.

What are your plans for the future?  If you intend for this to be a permanent relationship, have you given any thought to marriage?

Hey AlexG, welcome! You and your son sound like you have a deep relationship, as do I with mom. A serious love that just happens to be consag. I think you will f

find understanding friends here, and a non-fetish dialog.
