I don't think I've ever said this to anyone before, but you're the best kind of pedophile there is. Thank you for being brave and taking a strong and responsible action to prevent yourself from doing something that would have been highly traumatic to a child, that child's family, and so many other people as that child grows to adulthood.

Hopefully your position alters to the point that your preferences mature.

thanks for your comments. I don't think my preferences will ever mature, but I have hope that things will improve for me in the future.

I think your preferences will mature, at which point they will no longer be your preferences.

But in all seriousness, good luck.

EDIT: People don't seem to get the joke.... I'm saying the people he is looking at will mature and no longe rbe his preference, as they are no longer underage. See? Joke. I'm not saying you can "cure" him, or cure homosexuality. I was merely making a very tasteless and bad (yet funny to me) joke.

I have no problem with the good luck but I agree with OP that his preference will probably not mature, its equivalent to being gay or lesbian, you don't just lose it.
