Could our M!A’s help get Flaps back on his feet? Or would you not want that to happen for the same reasons you aren’t comfortable with other proposed M!A’s? We just really want to help…It sucks that when one of you is sad, the other suffers too…would you ever want to break that link?

* { i… don’t know. }

* { on one hand, it is nice, but….. it limits him, having me around and hooked up to him. i don’t like holding him back. }

* { not that he’s ever told me that i hold him back – i just. feel like i do, and i don’t like it. }

* { what exactly do you have in mind as far as him getting back on his feet goes, though? you aren’t being super clear about it. }
