Everybody has a perspective on something. Some people have a perspective on everything, or at least the sane people humor them to allow this thought. I'm part of this collective group of 'everybody', and I'm insane enough to want to post about anything and everything.I'm 20, gay, and a sophomore at Boston University studying English and Drama Literature, but I'm originally from this tiny town in this tiny county in the middle of nowhere Virginia. Feel free to ask me anything!
First Day
You and I need to do lunch sometime. It will feel less empty that way.
of my internship. Oh boy. Breathe. Breathe.
In other news, BU is all weird and empty. Not sure how I feel about that.

That’s ME! XD
Anonymous asked: Fair enough. I wish the best of luck to you in finding someone that will make you happy and feel loved. Everyone deserves it.
The same for you anon.
Anonymous asked: The fact that you don't care about your friends from high school gives me no reason to reveal who I am. But you're right in thinking I knew you.
I never said I didn’t care about my friends in high school. I said that in regards to this matter, I couldn’t care what they thought. Seriously, you and I both know that there are people in our high school who would tease, bully, punch, kick, and bruise somebody like me. I was thinking of my well being. Rumors spread fast, especially in a class of under 200. I would have gained nothing, that I don’t have right now.
Anonymous asked: I think a lot of high school friends would have supported you. I think you should give them the benefit of the doubt. But do you think they ever suspected it? Or do you think they would be shocked if they knew now?
I don’t know if they suspected. I don’t care if they suspected. I don’t care if they would have been shocked. I don’t care what they thought about it. It was my decision to make. If they feel out of the loop about it, then that is their problem, but I had to think of myself first.
This is now getting to the point where I suspect that you are somebody from high school. It would be great if you came off anon so we can continue this conversation. After all, you know me, but I know nothing about you.
Anonymous asked: So you always thought you were gay? You never had a crush on a girl?
I am pretty sure I was not like the heterosexual guys I was around. This difference was later defined as homosexuality. I did have crushes on girls, but they were never sexual in nature. I liked them as a person very much, but had no desire for them beyond that.
Anonymous asked: Why would you have been terribly treated in high school? Did you not have friends that would have supported you?
When you come from a small, mountain town in rural Virginia where you know for a fact that people are racist and homophobic, you tend to keep your head down. I didn’t think I had any friends who would have supported me, but even if I did, I didn’t want them to become people to protect me. I wanted to deal with it on my own first, and I did.
Anonymous asked: When did you realize you were gay?
This is actually something that I don’t have an answer for. I think I always knew, but because of the nature of where and how I was raised, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be accepted by my friends and family. I acknowledged the fact that I was gay in high school, but I didn’t come out because I would have been treated terribly. But, I made the decision to come out during my second semester of my freshman year. I waited for a better time and a better place.
Some people that continue to be in my life that should not be in my life.
