i went to see him and wasnt too pleased to find he had started drinking, but aside from that this is what he said...
i already know his family have a large piece of land which the family home is on, which is large and rambling as it is
his mother has said she wants to give over 2 acres for us to build a place on from scratch that we would design ourselves
he said his family financial situation was such that i wouldnt have to worry about money or working, we would be taken care of
i asked him why he wanted to take me and the kids and do such a thing, to which he replied that i was his best friend, i had saved his life, he loved me, he couldnt imagine not seeing me and not having him in his life every day, but he wanted to go home, and he couldnt go back knowing we were struggling back here while everything was easy for him
he also added he wasnt going to be having his own kids and he loved mine and wanted to take care of us
i asked him why his mother would want to do such a generous thing as well, and he said because he has told her all about me , and that i am his life saver, and she calls me his guardian angel, and she wants to repay the debt she feels she owes me
i have told him i wont give an answer in a hurry as there are so many issues to consider, but i want to see real planning from him rather than airy fairy ideas, before i commit to anything
this is something that would take a year or so to happen btw (if it did at all)
