Kryn Wrote:So basically, I saw this guy at my college who I also saw on plenty of fish so I already know he's interested in guys. He actually messaged me once and I replied, but didn't get a response afterwards :confused:. I live in a small homophobic town, with my parents who don't know I'm gay, while I'm attending said college.
What should I do? :confused:
What should you do? Tell me, what
can you do to
change any of this?
You can't force him to talk to you. Well you can abduct him, throw him into a well and throw down lotion and tell him to put the lotion on its skin or it gets the hose again. There is a statistical probability that after a while he will come to love you, care for you... It falls under Stockholm syndrome and similar psychological stuff.
Can't change the homophobic town, well yeah you can, but it means you will need a much, much larger well and far too many bottles of lotion. Torture tends to change people's minds - albeit in ways we rarely expect.
As for the parents - how large is their insurance policies? Are those policies made out to you? If so I suggest making it look like an accident (hope they have double indemnity clause on accidents) and then you will be living alone.
These are things you can do - I wouldn't recommend them because they are illegal in all 50 states.
Seems unreasonable? Then I suggest you sit down and think of reasonable things YOU can do to change things.
Most likely you will find that with the Homophobic town and the potential lover who spurned you there is nothing you can do to CHANGE them. You can, however, change how you feel about them.
As for the parents, eventually you will be in a situation where they will guess that that 'roommate' you have been living with for 20 years may actually be more than 'just' a roommate, especially if you area adopts Gays marriage and you marry him. Its kinds of a give away that screams 'I'm gay'.:biggrin:
