Its been quite awhile since I posted something on the site. I havent been around much and if I am around ive been lurking in the shadows. Any hoo Its been nine months since I came out of the closet to my family and friends. The first three months were rough on me but after that things mentally got better for me. At month five I decided to take a step back and stop concentrating on this part of my life so much.
Im doing pretty good at the moment all things considered. I havent taken the oportunity to venture out and find other members of the LGBT community around my area. Im a bit of a social recluse and the whole bar scene definitely aint my cup of tea. I am hoping this summer i can get out of the house more and find some hobbys to do instead of working and being online 24/7. My elderly father moved down from NY to SC to be closer to us kids. He moved in with me till he can find his own place down here and get on his feet. He is driving me bonkers. Long story short I hope he moves out ASAP.
I got a message out of the blue on Monday from a guy that I was best friends in high school with. We were extremely good friends when we were younger. We did every thing together including fooling around in bed for a few years in high school. I eventually put a stop to the activitys in the bedroom due to religous reasons. I soon graduated high school and moved away to college. We went our own separate ways and we havent hung out or chatted to much within the past ten years. I contacted him via Facebook last fall when I came out of the closet and he was supportive. He current identifys as being straight.
The reason he contacted me though because he wants to get the heck out of NY and move down here to SC. He was asking if I knew of any jobs available here. He also asked if he could crash at my place till he can get some money saved up once he is down here and get his own place eventually. NY state sux and no jobs are available right now. I agreed to help him out by letting stay with me. My brother is going to help him find a job. Nothing is set in stone right now. He might come down or he might not. Its to early to tell.
I am excited with the prospect of being reunited with a old friend. I certainly hope he is successful down here and every thing works out for the best once he gets down here. I am a little bit nervous at the same time though. We were never offically in a relationship back in high school. We were best friends with benefits on the side you could say. At this point Im trying to keep my expectations grounded as possible. Being close friends would be okay with me. If something else develops that would be fine with me to. Im going to play it safe and take it one day at a time if he does choose to move down...........
