teasings are nothing.....I went through 8 years of peer isolation, teasing nonstop, and yet I graduated with honors and today I am stronger than ever. I didn't let other people's preconceived notions affect how exactly I saw myself. You don't have to be outgoing to turn out normal, I was far from outgoing....

My brother, I feel you completely, your story caused me to ache deep inside, cause all i wanna know is why i like dudes, something that has only brought me pain and rejection. My father and I don't have any type of relationship, his animosity towards me is unreal, and because of this i grieve.

[1blessedbrotha]

my story is a lot like yours, no one accepted me, I endured the taunts, teasing, and secret sex. After never finding fulfillment in the gay world, I have resigned myself to being single, and have went back to my church, which is very tolerant to it's gay membership. I only feel safe alone, so I don't date, flirt, etc. This way I can be hurt or used anymore. After all the prayer, fasting, etc.. the gay isn't going away, so the only thing i know to do is to go on thru this life alone.

It sounds like you have bitterness within yourself regarding the fact that you had a boyfriend who turned out to be gay. I have no desire to call you out of your name, I didn't curse once in my response message to you. Your situation with the dl guy is unfortunate but you shouldn't judge the entire gay community based on the actions of one or a few bad apples. I"m 33, I've lived long enough to know that cursing back and forth with a person gets you no where. I'm simply trying to educate.
