Remorse

[Shadow]

Oh absolutely - there were times when I was growing up that I cried myself to sleep at night just wishing I could be "normal" (and I use the word in inverted commas because it's really quite a subjective concept).

I think the worst times were definitely before I started coming out, and when I was at your age or just a TINY bit older, as most of my mates (all of whom were straight) had girlfriends, and consequently less time for me, and so whilst I was totally cool with that as it's only natural when all is said and done, it did kinda hurt because I just couldn't see a way of getting through the obstacles that I perceived as laying before me ...

I was at an all boys school too, so the risk of being beaten up for coming out was (I thought) really quite high ...

But now, a few years later, I'm happier than I've been in a LONG time. Got the love of a good man, fantastic mates including two straight male best mates (who I love more than life itself), and you guys to keep me company in cyberspace ...

What more could a growing boy ask for !?!?!

:biggrin:
