Angie: So, you are not concerned about this relationship between Mary and Margaret?
Bette: I believe they can handle their own personal affairs. I wish them both the best and I hope that their lives will be enhanced with this relationship but I believe that it is too early and not appropriate for me to make any kind of prognostication on the future of this. I do not know either of them well enough for that.
Angie: But I thought both of them were straight.
Tina: Well, sweetie, to the best of our knowledge, neither of them have ever been in a same sex relationship at least not in their adult life. But that does not mean you are straight, gay or queer or lesbian or whatever label you want to put on who you are.
Bette: When I was younger, I had a tendency to try to categorize people and label them. You are straight or you’re a lesbian or you’re bi or whatever. But then one day, my friend Shane pointed out that many people are more fluid than a label would indicate. And after much thought, I see that she is right. There is no label that really describes people’s sexual preferences totally or accurately. Yet, most people insist that they apply some label in order to categorize human behavior. And for some people, a label might apply today and tomorrow not apply at all. Why is that? Because people are not static in their emotions, their perceptions and in their attractions. They are influenced by their own biology, by their environment and by their experiences.
Tina: You two are really young. But there will come a day when you will see someone from your high school or your past. And you will recall that person was not liked by you very much but upon seeing them in a brand-new environment and set of experiences, you find yourself actually being attracted to that person. You may not desire them as a lover, but you would like to know them better as friend.
Bette: Of course, the opposite can happen. That person was god-like when you knew them years ago. But now that you see them in a new light, they seem silly or superficial and not someone you want to associate with at all. So, what’s changed? Actually everything. You’ve changed. They have changed. The world has changed. It’s probably a reason why romantic relationships early in life don’t last as long as relationships which are established at a more mature age.

Maybe Bette & Tina could think of a way to assist Suzanne in her education. Maybe loans to cover whatever isn’t covered by the scholarships Suzanne can get. Loans due (or forgiven) after getting her degree(s) and finally earning a full-time professional salary.
It might be helpful to run any ideas past Angie before talking with Suzanne. To make sure it won’t damage their relationship with Angie. Or, damage Angie’s friendship with Suzanne.
Just a thought!
I’m really loving this ongoing story line about life. Or, at least the life of my favorite couple who happen to have a lot, a lot of $$$$$. Thanks
Annie,
Stay tuned. You are somewhat clairvoyant. Bette and Tina will have a conversation about this very thing. How can we (Bette and Tina) help Suzanne out without interfering with her life. You see, money is a powerful influencer of people and the last thing they want to do is influence Suzanne’s life. Their objective is to help her without her feeling some kind of debt of gratitude for this help. Its a fine line to walk. They have learned a lot of lessons from Helena… do people like me for who I am or for what I can do for them or have done for them or could do for them? You see, friends who are bound by favors are not friends at all… or if they are, they are only temporary friends.
Thanks for reading….
I have been so fascinated with this fic that I have not commented on it. I just love this family, and how they interact. I must say I was a little shocked when Margaret and Mary came out as a couple. I knew something was going on with them, but never guessed that it was that. I really am enjoying it all please continue.
It is not my plan to ever go into the details of the relationship with Margaret and Mary… I can say that there are all kinds of relationships. The fact is, that they want to be with each other as much as they can and want to share living space and a bed. They are affectionate with each other but that may as far as it goes. They are not going to disclose the intimate details of their relationships if there are any to disclose. The fact is that they are enjoying being companions. I just wanted to demonstrate that Bette worry about the two getting along was just totally uncalled for. And I wanted another opportunity for Bette and Tina to talk to Angie about relationships. And I also wanted to talk a little about labels…
Thank you for reading and commenting…. I am pleased you are enjoying this story. This Volume comes to an end soon – only 4 more chapters. I am not sure if I will continue this story beyond that. Oh there are lot more that will happen in this family’s life. Its a lot of work… I guess I just need a little encouragement to keep writing. Thanks you.
