I am engaged to marry a great guy who grew up in
foster homes in the 1940's. His story is catastophic in
terms of abuse and neglect. I may be the first person
who has really loved him. He clearly never learned
about emotional intimacy and security as a child, and
it's hard for him to understand what I mean by that
even as an adult. Is there anything I can do to
connect with him on this level? Can I ever convince him
that I won't abandon him the way everyone else did? He
deserves so much to be loved...
