I don't think it should be okay for me to be with someone other than the man I have committed myself to - even if he is fine with it. Ihave been with a female since entering a relationship with my current partner. It wasn't hidden and I felt intense guilt due to it.

Therefore I classify myself as 'other' as I am committed to my partner, not a gender
You male/female?

When I was young I was Gay... but then we had gangs going around who were "queer Bashing" Gays and after a knifing and being beat up a few times - because I sounded effeminate - I went Bi and eventually married (been married 30 years and had a boy and a girl - now adult), but I still get the feelings for a guy, though I've never played away with someone else. I guess I've not met anyone since Keith died...Another story

So sorry to hear about this.

Those bullies that terrorized you, you should have had them either arrested or expelled from school and you should have gotten police protection against them!

What they did was discriminate against you because you chose to be with the same sex. That is classified as a hate crime which is punishable by law!!

Man! You are so right but I wonder had I gone to the police would I still be alive today? Things like these escalate if you let it. And getting some freak off the street, only produces more freaks to take their place.


I think I've lost a lot but also gained the experience of raising two children - something gay couples don't often experience unless they have an understanding Adoption officer.


Thanks for your support - you've touched me n I feel not quite so alone now...

That Latin quote in my signature is my school motto - I've tried to live by it.

You're welcome! Glad to help.

Yeah, even boys as young as 13 are a force to be recccond with. If you drop a dime on them, and they find out that it was YOU who blew their cover, and they'll come after you and they'll want revenge on you for what you've done!

It's a damn shame that kids that young would stoop that low and start hating on you because of your sexual preference! Who are they? They didn't raise you. They can't run your life, but they'll try to, once they find out who you like

And besides, what the hell business of that is theirs!!! They're still BABIES at this point themselves. They need to just go get a life instead of trying to be all up in yours!!

You need choose the ones you can trust - and be thankful you got them to see your point of view and be your friend or mate.

You've just made another friend too - allbeit across the Atlantic pond...
