Thank you for your empathy. But I hope I'm not giving you the impression my life sucks. I have had good times and bad times, just like everyone else. There are times I wish I didn't have to keep this secret. But being a boylover is just PART of my life, it's not my whole life. I'm sure my family would still love me if they knew. It's just that them knowing wouldn't do anyone any good, them or me. So them not knowing is easier for everyone. Yes I have siblings. We've never been a very close family, but we do keep somewhat in touch. I currently live alone. One YF was 13 when I got to know him and the other was 14. As they got into their later teens, we didn't spend as much time together. Other things took up their time as they got older, which is the normal way of things. So while I was a little sad to see that I was becoming less and less a part of their lives, I was happy to see their lives progressing as it should. They eventually moved out of state. And although promises of keeping in touch were made, you know how that usually goes.

I'm glad you have your favorite class tomorrow. And I hope you can become friends with the boy you like.
