Marriage isn't to everyone's taste, Buffy, especially if you don't need to do it at all. I've always wanted it. And I've always wanted children. I knew there was a risk, of course, being in the Navy. And after Simpson...I think for years, I mourned the death of the dream of finding love for myself. As time went on, I began to wonder if it wasn't possible anyway.

I'm more than fortunate. I am blessed to have loved two women, although my faithfulness must be with only one. That two have been strong enough to love me in spite of it all. Most of the time I'm sure I must be the greatest liar who ever lived even when I am honest, or they would understand who I truly am.
