Thanks. We have been terrified that he shouldn't even say girlfriend because of how there seems to be so many many unwritten rules of what you should or should not ever say! Isn't there a list anywhere? I mean .. he thought asking about a poster on the wall about jobs wasn't a crime .. and it brought all this on! So we didn't know how to handle the dating aspect. But we both hate lying so it has put us in a place we don't know what to do.

I have no ideas what all those acronyms mean, but so wow you got to see how both sides are treated then?
