  • Public

  • Mother was a professional model. He’s still finding photos of her here and there in various publications
  • Mother passed away when Grrrr was 10 years old (she knew she was going to die—she had bulimia and was poisoning herself. The day she passed away, they were staying in a motel and she told Grrrr to go out and play by the pool and not come back until she told him to…then he saw the ambulance and the stretcher. His last memory of her was her being wheeled out, already dead).
  • Didn’t know where his father was—only knew he was in New York.
  • Went into foster care while social services looked for his father…took a year to find him
  • Was then sent to live with his father and stepmother and new siblings on Long Island
  • Learned to steal and got himself in trouble—a lot.
  • Went to live with his grandparents in Puerto Rico…went to high school there
  • Back to New York after high school where he worked for a while until he got bored
  • Decided to take off for So. California where he lived for three years, “grinding down his horns”, as he puts it
  • Asked his father, who’d taken all of the trust fund he’d gotten from his mother, for some financial help. Father refused. Changed his name to his mother’s maiden name.
  • Decided to attend university in Europe, where his mother’s family lives
  • While at school, was approached by a girl and started dating her
  • Her family is an extremely wealthy family
  • They stayed together for 12 years…
  • Had a baby girl, had a baby boy
  • One day, she came home from a business trip and “freaked out” somehow. I still don’t know exactly what he means by that…all I know is that she left Grrrrrr and the kids…went away…for over a year. The kids were babies and he was the sole caretaker
  • She eventually came back, but revealed she was having an affair with their accountant
  • He moved out of the house, but not before she punched him in the face and broke his nose in a fit of rage. He moved to a small apartment, 2 blocks from their old house
  • He was very, very, very sad…especially during the gloomy, cold European winters
  • Came to the US on business last year and visited one of his half-brothers who lives close by (father lives close too, but still won’t talk to Grrrr). Brother told him that he should think about moving back to the US.
  • Ex wanted to get back together, but he said no.
  • Moved back to the US in June.
  • Started online dating.
  • Met me in July.

    You know the rest.
