‘The first time we were physical we ended up holding hands, and then we ended up kissing – and the kissing led to other things, ‘ she said.
‘The law states that if you are related as they are – mother and son – you can not have any type of sexual intimate relationship. As is typical of GSA, family members who reunite after having been separated for some time can develop the bond of a couple as opposed to a platonic relationship.
Monica Mares gave Caleb Peterson up for adoption when he was an infant, according to KOB.
‘I never had anyone cook me meals or give me anything, ‘ he said. “It was nearly love at first sight but first it was mother love”, she said.
In short order, though, authorities learned of the relationship and soon had them both in custody.
Mares told the Daily Mail that she started getting “crazy” feelings about her son. “I told him, ‘I’m sorry, I don’t know how you are going to react to this. I was scared to let you know”, Peterson responded.
Monica said that it didn’t feel odd or wrong when the couple began their sexual relationship – but admits that it most likely wouldn’t have happened if she had raised her son from birth. There is no way anybody could pull us apart, and I really do love him.
“We are drawn to what is familiar”, Ludwig said.
The pair, from Clovis, New Mexico, are banned from having any contact with each other but claim they are willing to risk everything to be together.
Parry detailed the legal trouble the couple faces as well as the hate they have received from family and friends. They were ultimately arrested after admitting to a sexual relationship. But at the moment, they’re struggling.
Police said a neighbor confronted them about their relationship; officers showed up at Peterson’s house and the couple told investigators they were sexually involved.
Peterson and Mares have been ordered by the court not to see each other.
“It is every bit worth it”, Mares said.
He said he started falling in love with her about a week after they met.
He says that even if the judge offered to spare him jail term due to his age, on the condition that he stops all contact with his mother, he would refuse, as he believes she is the love of his life and he would wait for her for as long as is necessary.
